About This Home

Location is everything—and this beautiful beach condo in the Village of Bear Trap Dunes delivers! Overlooking a peaceful pond, this home features a screened porch and sunny deck with new low-maintenance decking (2025)—the perfect spot for morning coffee or an evening glass of wine. Inside, you’ll find fresh new flooring, a neutral color palette freshly repainted in 2025, and a spacious, light-filled layout designed for easy coastal living. With 3 bedrooms and 3 full baths, including a primary suite with ensuite bath and a second-floor loft with its own full bath, this condo provides flexible space for guests or a home office. The vaulted great room features soaring ceilings and a gas fireplace, creating an inviting gathering area for every season. Major updates ensure peace of mind and comfort, including a new HVAC system (spring 2025) and a new roof (October 2025). A rare large walk-in attic provides excellent storage for beach gear, golf clubs, and seasonal items. Even better, the home is being sold partially furnished, making it easy to move right in and start enjoying your beach retreat from day one. Just 3 miles from downtown Bethany Beach and the boardwalk, the premier community of Bear Trap Dunes offers a true resort lifestyle. Residents enjoy both indoor and outdoor pools, a homeowners-only pool, and the award-winning 27-hole Bear Trap Dunes golf course. The seasonal beach shuttle makes getting to the beach or downtown Bethany effortless. Enjoy a wealth of amenities, including pickleball, tennis, volleyball, and basketball courts, a fitness center, tot lot, and miles of scenic walking paths. After a round of golf or a day in the sun, relax at The Den at Bear Trap Dunes, the on-site restaurant and pub with a beautiful terrace overlooking the course—perfect for dinner or sunset cocktails with friends. Bear Trap Dunes offers the ideal blend of coastal tranquility, resort-style amenities, and convenience, making it one of the most sought-after communities near Bethany Beach.
