Property Description:
The lighthouse is a 3 story cast iron tower topped by a lantern and a upper gallery deck. The tower rests on a black trumpet shaped iron caisson lined with concrete. The lighthouse includes a keepers quarters, fuel storage area and a lantern room. The lighthouse was constructed in 1876. Located in Delaware Bay approximately 3 miles offshore of Bowers Beach, Delaware. Bowers Beach is approximately 10 miles southeast of Dover, Delaware.

There was a news story on NBC 10 by Tim Furlong, wonder if it may help get this place sold? No electricity and batteries power the functioning light and fog horn. One ladder to climb up. The ‘bathroom’ toilet is a hole that when you look into it, you see the bay! Interesting purchase, don’t you think?
