About This Home

As of September 2021

For those of you who desire living in great comfort, allow me to introduce you to the home that will appeal to all your hopes and dreams. Discerning buyers will love the sprawling floorplan, one of the largest in the coveted Henlopen Landing Community. Not only is the location most ideal, but is also combined with amenities like a clubhouse, pool, fitness center and playground. Just minutes to the resort areas of Lewes and Rehoboth as well as the beaches of the Atlantic Ocean. As you enter into the 2-story foyer, the architectural details of this home become evident and you feel the inviting and charming aura it relays. Boasting 5 bedrooms throughout 2 levels of living, everyone in your home could pick their own space. One is a second primary bedroom with it's own bath and could also be used as a flex living space, game room (plenty big for a pool table and more), or an upstairs family retreat. The second floor balcony overlooks the great room offering an impressive view of the areas below. The luxurious first floor bedroom and ensuite were thoughtfully designed and laid out to offer maximum use of space. The calming colors lends itself to a soothing retreat. Large glass enclosed shower and a corner garden tub make this the perfect spot for the end of the day. Double sinks promote harmony in the bath large enough for two to begin your day. There are 2 walk in closets creating a storage sanctuary. The great room with soaring ceilings is the centerpiece of the home, allowing for easy entertaining and beneficial family time. A wonderful wall of windows lets light billow in while it reflects and absorbs the sunny rays creating a soothing atmosphere. The kitchen was recently updated with granite countertops and offers a generous number of cabinets in all sizes and endless counter space. Appliances are stainless steel and most have been updated in recent years. All of these things, plus the overly large space, center island, tile floors and double pantry closets will make even the most acclaimed Chef envious of this kitchen. The island and bar both offer generous seating options be it full sit-down dining or meals on the go. The formal dining room is perfect for elegant dinners and classy social gatherings and can also have duel use as expanded seating from the kitchen. The beautifully tiled sunroom is an ideal spot to unwind with a beverage and a good book. The rear sliders from the sunroom calmly flow to an extensive patio area with stone pavers, allowing an opportunity to mesh enclosed spaces with the outdoors while maintaining uninterrupted views of the yard and firepit. And if all of this wasn’t enough, add to it a full size unfinished basement area. A perfect spot for a home gym, office, or additional living areas. One room is currently being used as a bedroom. The neighbors will be envious of the enhanced yard size by being a corner lot. This also allows for a more private feel. It's obvious that both practical and efficient planning were in play as this home’s floorplan looks as good as it flows. This delightful home is the perfect place to create your family memories to enjoy for years to come!
