Welcome to 21617 Graves Drive, a beautiful 2-bedroom and 3-bath ranch home just minutes from Downtown Lewes. Please note that the owners opted for a lovely study with French Doors just off the foyer in lieu of a 3rd bedroom. Built in 2016, this thoughtfully designed residence offers 3,086 square feet of comfortable living space in the sought-after Lewes Crossing community—perfect for relaxing on the coast or entertaining guests. From the moment you arrive, you’ll notice the home’s inviting curb appeal and landscaped front yard - both front and rear and side yards are irrigated with own well, rear yard backs directly to the community’s walking/jogging/biking trail. The backyard screened porch provides the ideal spot to unwind and enjoy the outdoors in comfort. Inside, the open-concept floor plan fills the home with natural light and the engineered hardwood flooring adds to the easy flow. The kitchen features stainless steel appliances and double wall oven, granite countertops, abundant cabinetry, and a center island with seating. It opens seamlessly into the dining area and great room, creating a welcoming space for gatherings with family and friends. The primary suite includes a spacious bedroom with a sitting area, walk-in closet, and private bath with dual sinks and a tiled shower. A second bedroom and full bath are also located on the main level. And of course, the study just off the foyer with French doors for openness and brightness is perfect for working from home or quiet reading. The finished walkout basement expands the living space with a family room, soundproof media room, full bath, and plenty of storage including a workshop. There’s plenty of room for fitness, additional bedroom, hobbies, or play. Energy efficiency is another highlight—owned solar panels on the rear roof help lower utility costs (there are two-200 Amp electric services). Everyday convenience continues with a two-car garage, durable finishes, and well-maintained systems. The owners also installed a well to service their irrigation system. Residents of Lewes Crossing enjoy access to excellent community amenities, including a clubhouse, fitness center, outdoor pool, and walk/jog/bike trail. No need to worry about lawn care as this is included in the HOA fees. The location is unbeatable—just minutes from historic downtown Lewes, area beaches, trails, shopping, and dining. Whether you’re enjoying a quiet morning on the porch or lively gatherings in the basement, this home offers the perfect blend of comfort, space, and coastal charm.
