About This Home

As of September 2024

This charming small home exudes the cozy, relaxed vibe of a classic beach cottage while offering modern conveniences. Nestled next to the Lewes Library and next door to the popular Junction & Breakwater Trail, it's less than a mile from the quaint historic town of Lewes and just one short mile to Lewes Beach. The house is a serene retreat perfect for a getaway. The exterior of the home is painted in a fun color reminiscent of coastal living. A welcoming sunroom with authentic brick floors invites you to sit and relax after a day at nearby Cape Henlopen State Park. The well-maintained yard features a large lawn with room to expand, colorful flower beds, and a winding stone path leading to a versatile detached shed, beautifully transformed into an inviting entertainment hub. The shed includes a stylish bar area, cozy seating, wall sconces, window A/C, and wood details on the walls, blending indoor comfort with outdoor charm. An awning and small deck off the shed add to the vibe. Inside the main home, you'll find gorgeous hardwood floors throughout. The living room is cozy and bright, with large windows allowing ample natural light to flood the space. The quaint yet functional kitchen features white cabinetry, bead board details on the walls, and an island with seating. The home includes two cozy bedrooms, one full bathroom, and a laundry room off the kitchen. Just outside is your private hot tub and a fully fenced yard. Coastal touches and soothing paint colors throughout complete the look. Off-street parking and a shaded patio complete this home. This lovely beach cottage tucked away in downtown Lewes is the ideal retreat for those seeking a coastal escape.
