118 Lakeview Ave – Dover, Delaware
The address says it all... “Lakeview.”
Welcome to this unique lakefront property featuring an impressive 175 feet of shoreline, offering the perfect opportunity to embrace true waterfront living with a newer private dock. Lakeview is a cul-de-sac, peaceful and quiet.
Start your mornings in the spacious country-style eat-in kitchen, complete with custom wood walls and stunning views of Moore’s Lake. With plenty of room for a full dining table and seating for eight, this space is ideal for both everyday living and entertaining.
Just steps down, you’ll find a large, open living room highlighted by a beautiful wood-burning brick fireplace and a picture window that perfectly frames the lake. This versatile space offers endless possibilities for furniture layout and design—let your creativity shine.
A separate dining area provides additional flexibility and can easily be adapted to suit your needs—whether as a formal dining room, home office, or bonus living space.
The home features three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a two-car attached garage with convenient interior access.
One of the standout features is the multi-level deck off the kitchen, overlooking Moore’s Lake—an ideal setting for relaxing evenings and enjoying the peaceful surroundings of nature.
This home features a versatile bonus room just off the kitchen with convenient access to the garage. Currently housing the washer and dryer, this space could easily be enclosed to create a dedicated laundry closet, allowing the room to function as a home office or even a potential fourth bedroom.
The heater room is accessible from a separate exterior entrance located at the base of the deck steps (see photos).
Be sure not to miss the additional workshop/storage area, also accessible from the exterior through the right-side entrance (included in photos), offering plenty of extra space for tools, hobbies, or storage. A newer 10 x 23 shed with power could be converted into an office/she shed. With Spring and Summer around the corner the professional designed rose garden will be in full bloom. Most windows have been updated. House comes with a one year Assurant Home Warranty Premium Plan.
While the home could benefit from some TLC, it offers incredible potential to create your dream lakefront retreat. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to own a piece of waterfront paradise. Seller will entertain all offers.
