Steps from the pristine Gardens beach. A rare find. Welcome to The Seagate.

Escape the ordinary in this super-clean, beautifully decorated, single family home on a quiet street in the Gardens. Feel the breeze as you enjoy the calming sound of surf and the ocean views from the upper deck. After sunrise yoga on the beach, walk along the ocean with your morning Nespresso. This home has everything you need. Just bring your bathing suit!

Enjoy 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths and 2200 sq. ft. of open concept living with plenty of space to spread out. Dine inside or out, serve meals with ease in our large chef’s kitchen with Gaggenau appliances. Or for the outdoor chef, the 6-burner stainless steel grill awaits. There is plenty of room for lounging, al fresco dining or just a little quiet time.

The setup is convenient with kitchen, living room, three bedrooms and laundry on first floor, providing easy access for guests who have difficulty navigating steps. The upper level boasts a large bedroom with master bath, entertainment area with vaulted ceiling, wet bar and large deck with ocean views.

Traveling with children? Plenty of sleeping and hang out space on first floor. Have little ones that need to sleep in the same room as their parents? Two bedrooms are ready with rollaway beds.
Short on car space? Just bring your overnight bag. Yoga mats, boogie boards, bikes, beach gear and beach tags are ready for your vacationing pleasure. Plenty of family games to enjoy on cool summer nights.
Do you have a fur baby? No need to leave your pup behind. Dogs are welcome.
Return from the beach to find a refreshing, private outdoor shower. Hardwood floors throughout make cleanliness a breeze and linens are provided.

Whether from an hour away or half a world away, The Seagate is a special retreat. A short ride from New York, Philadelphia or DC, and you’ll experience a reprieve from the fast pace of everyday life. Visitors from abroad who want to experience it all can make The Seagate home base in the quaint seaside town of Ocean City established two centuries ago.

This is what our first guests in December 2020 had to say: "We LOVED your place!! We have rented places in Ocean City for 12 plus yrs but your place was hands down the best, a 5 star hotel with all the amenities. The house was clean, fresh, nicely decorated and well stocked. Good location too. We will definitely be back."

Since 2002, we’ve called the The Gardens of Ocean City our second home, where we savor the peacefulness of the shore as a retreat from our busy lives. We are thrilled to share the experience with others at The Seagate. Enjoy the tranquility of the sea, children playing in the sand, the topnotch restaurants of Margate, the fun of the boardwalk and best of all, making special memories with family and friends. We hope you enjoy your time in Ocean City as much as we do! Follow us on Instagram @theseagatehouse.

Sweet spot
We rented the house for an extended stay so family could come and enjoy time at the shore as their schedule allowed. The house is in a great neighborhood and close to the beach for walks anytime. We also enjoyed the closeness to Margate for dinners out. Having the sheets, towels and hair dryers provided is very convenient. Chris was very responsive if we had questions. We enjoyed our time at Seagate!

We enjoyed our time at Seagate. The house is as pictured, beautiful, spacious and clean. The towels and sheets being provided is a big plus (no more lugging them along).
