About This Home

As of July 2021

The ultimate beach home oasis located in the highly desirable North Bethany oceanfront community of Cotton Patch Hills! This unique and distinctive home is situated on an oversized corner lot, one lot back from the beach with a swimming pool and elevator! A private community beach is located only steps away accessible by a tree covered, wooden boardwalk. This timeless and well maintained property has never been rented and was fully updated in 1997. Embrace privacy as this home is positioned among mature trees on an expansive lot with a recently installed 40' by 15' inground salt swimming pool and adjacent 8' spa with individual heating controls and travertine tiling- durable natural spring stone that remains cool in the sun! Four spacious decks with a retractable awning and recently installed four season sunroom, provide plenty of room for dining al fresco, overlooking the pool or simply relaxing to the sounds of the quiet beach and waves. Inside the craftsmanship of this home is evident with custom cabinetry, hardwood flooring, granite kitchen countertops and two fireplaces perfect for cozy fires on chilly evenings. A semi inverted floor plan offers an expansive third floor master suite with vaulted ceilings, sitting room with wet bar, fireplace, private office and two separate decks with a view of the ocean! A huge two car garage provides plenty of storage space with closets for storage and beach toys! Fully fenced property with a separate fenced area, ideal for dogs. The community of Cotton Patch Hills offers tennis courts and is the only North Bethany community that has access to both the bay and the beach. Boat ramp and slips are offered when available at the private marina on the bay side. This exceptional home is located close to downtown Bethany Beach, a low-key coastal town with stylish shops, gourmet restaurants, healthy outdoor activities, and live entertainment. Enjoy the convenience of exploring nearby Fenwick Island, Dewey & Rehoboth Beach and Lewes while returning at the end of the day to your own private oceanfront enclave to relax and rejuvenate.
