About This Home

Welcome to 205 Lantern Lane, where polished upgrades, flexible living spaces and thoughtful details make this home as comfortable as it is impressive.

The main level is anchored by a first-floor primary suite, new luxury vinyl plank flooring and inviting living spaces designed for both everyday comfort and entertaining. The primary suite features a tray ceiling, new short-pile carpet, a custom-designed walk-in closet and a beautifully remodeled bath with dual vanity, granite countertop, soft-close drawers, marble-look wall tile, new floor tile, updated lighting and mirrors, and a soft-close sliding shower door.

The living room offers a gas fireplace with mantel, custom blinds and an upgraded 52-inch ceiling fan. The formal dining room is finished with plantation shutters and a new chandelier, while the powder room has been refreshed with a new vanity and board-and-batten molding.

The kitchen is equally impressive with granite countertops, a center island with breakfast bar, 42-inch cabinetry, undermount lighting, slide-out shelving, pantry, touchless faucet, stainless steel appliances, upgraded gas range with grill and a wine refrigerator.

A separate sitting room overlooks the fenced backyard and opens through 6-foot sliders with built-in blinds to a paver patio with privacy screen. The included gas grill is already plumbed directly to natural gas, making outdoor entertaining easy.

Upstairs, new carpeting continues through the loft and two additional bedrooms, along with a full guest bath featuring a deep soaking tub.

The finished basement adds exceptional versatility with a kitchenette featuring quartz countertops, tile backsplash, new LVP flooring, second pantry and eat-in area. A spacious recreation room includes a bump-out for additional play or flex space, while a separate office and workout area, two storage rooms and workshop space provide even more functionality.

Additional upgrades include custom window treatments throughout, Samsung washer and dryer, whole-house water filtration, hot-water booster, wireless Rain Bird irrigation controller and smart-home technology including a ring doorbell, smart front-door lock, ecobee thermostat, app-controlled garage door opener and Homey Hub.

Living in Heritage Creek adds another layer of ease and enjoyment to everyday life. The community clubhouse offers an in-ground pool, fitness center, library and recreation room, along with an inviting lounge featuring a fireplace, pool table and bar area. It is a great space to relax, socialize or stay active without leaving the neighborhood. Even better, the HOA includes lawn maintenance, giving you more time to enjoy the home, the community and everything Milton has to offer.

Beyond the neighborhood, Milton offers the charm and lifestyle that make coastal Delaware so appealing. Enjoy historic downtown Milton, local dining and shops, performances at the Milton Theatre, the Broadkill River, Dogfish Head Craft Brewery and nearby Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge. Lewes and Rehoboth Beach are also within easy reach, giving you convenient access to beaches, dining, shopping and everything the Delaware coast has to offer.

205 Lantern Lane combines style, space and smart upgrades in a location that lets you enjoy the best of Milton and coastal Delaware.
