About This Home
As of October 2025Discover an extraordinary fusion of classic Rehoboth Beach charm and modern luxury in this professionally redesigned and expanded midcentury home. Thoughtfully reimagined by the designer owner, this one-level residence offers seamless indoor-outdoor living, high-end finishes, and exquisite attention to detail.
Step inside through the terrazzo-floored entryway, where a vaulted great room with exposed beam ceilings welcomes you. The expansive living area boasts a custom BoConcept media center and an acoustic-slatted wood accent wall, creating a sophisticated yet inviting ambiance. A spacious dining area transitions effortlessly into the chef’s dream kitchen, featuring: 6-burner gas range; massive 9’ x 4.5’ island with refrigerated drawers and a wine fridge; Sleek European cabinetry with bespoke storage solutions; and walk-in pantry with Elfa shelving, wine storage, and a chest freezer.
A wall of floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors floods the space with natural light and opens to a screened porch and deck, perfect for entertaining or quiet coastal evenings.
The private bedroom wing offers two serene guest rooms and a stylish bath with a soaking tub. Two additional primary suites provide spa-like retreats, one featuring a zero-entry shower. Thoughtful conveniences abound, including a hidden passageway from the living area to the guest wing, a powder room, a dedicated utility closet, laundry room with dog bath, additional storage/office space, outdoor shower and an enclosed front porch accessible from one of the primary suites.
Beyond the main house, two distinct outbuildings offer unparalleled flexibility:
A private studio with a wet bar, wine fridge, worktables, and custom cabinetry—ideal as an artist’s retreat, home office, or fitness space and a separate workshop/storage space, discreetly accessed via a side yard path.
Outdoors, a salt water plunge pool and sun-soaked deck lead to a patio and yard, all designed for ultimate relaxation. The home’s rain garden and carport complement its sustainable, modern design.
Nestled in an exclusive enclave just moments from the bay, ocean, and vibrant town life, this home offers rare tranquility while keeping shopping, fine dining, and entertainment within easy reach. Experience refined coastal living at its finest.
