About This Home

As of December 2022

Spacious and bright 3 bedroom townhouse offering for beach lovers and investors alike! Enjoy an end unit location in Tree Tops, an established townhouse community with friendly neighbors, plenty of parking, and open space. Well cared for, this comfortably furnished and decorated beach home blends the best of casual elegance and stylish convenience. The first level floor plan offers a breakfast room, galley style kitchen, dining room, living room, and powder room. The breakfast room could easily be repurposed as a home office. Premium luxury vinyl plank floors in the living and dining rooms and Pergo flooring in the rest of the first floor make coming in from a day at the beach easy on wear and tear. Cozy wood-burning fireplace with custom shiplap surround. The living room opens to a private deck with an Azek outdoor shower enclosure with a bench. The second floor houses the 3 bedrooms plus 2 full baths. Primary bedroom features a bay view, vaulted ceiling, en suite bath, and a huge walk-in closet. Plenty of storage - inside and outside. One of the best locations in Dewey, this quiet neighborhood offers everything within walking distance: 2.5 blocks to the beach, 1 block to the bay with a boat/kayak launch, easy walk to restaurants/bars and shopping. Two assigned parking spaces directly in front of the home. Proven weekly rental. This turnkey property had nearly $45K in 2022 bookings across 17 guest stays ($52K in 2021 across 23 stays). An investor may benefit from an immediate cash flow to cover mortgage, insurance, taxes, utilities, or other expenses. Current owners have renovated and replaced nearly everything in this home in the last seven years including the roof, heat pump, AC fan and compressor, all appliances, all bathrooms, most furniture, lighting/other fixtures, and more. Fully encapsulated crawl space. Whether as a second home or rental property, this house is ready for anyone to drop their beach bags and relax!
