About This Home
Welcome to the kind of home that just feels different the moment you pull up. Perfectly positioned on one of the largest lots in the neighborhood, just shy of an acre, this 3+ bedroom home with a bonus 4th bedroom checks every box and then goes a step further. It is not your typical beach-area build. This one has personality, intention, and a little bit of edge in all the right ways. Step inside and you are immediately greeted by a light-filled great room with soaring vaulted ceilings, rich hardwood flooring, and a cozy gas fireplace that anchors the space beautifully. It is open, inviting, and designed for real living and effortless entertaining. The kitchen delivers exactly what buyers are hoping for. Granite countertops, updated GE stainless appliances, and a bonus gas cooktop alongside the traditional range setup that gives you flexibility whether you are hosting a crowd or just enjoying a quiet night in. It is equal parts function and style. The owner’s suite is privately tucked away and truly feels like a retreat. Two oversized walk-in closets give you all the storage you could want, and the en-suite bath with soaking tub offers that exhale-at-the-end-of-the-day moment we are all looking for. Two additional first-floor bedrooms are thoughtfully separated, giving everyone their own space, while the second-floor bonus room easily functions as a fourth bedroom, guest space, office, or flex room depending on your lifestyle. And then there is the lower level... a blank canvas that is anything but basic. The unfinished basement offers serious square footage for storage, future finished space, or even a secure retreat during storms. Beneath it all, a fully poured crawl space means zero maintenance concerns and no moisture headaches. It is rare to find this kind of versatility and peace of mind. The upgrades here matter, and they have already been done for you. Since ownership, the home has been elevated with a fully fenced backyard in sleek aluminum, a high efficiency dual fuel heat pump HVAC system, a Rinnai tankless water heater, all new GE stainless appliances, and updated hardware throughout the entire home. Even the details have been considered, from custom closet shelving in every bedroom to an oversized laundry room with built-ins and utility sink. Outside, the space is just as impressive. A flat, expansive backyard that offers privacy, room to entertain, and the kind of breathing room that is getting harder and harder to find this close to the beach. And that driveway... talk about room for cars... for days. Whether you are hosting, have multiple drivers, or even need space for your boat or RV, the HOA allows for driveway and yard storage, giving you flexibility that is hard to come by. This one delivers in a big way. And the location... this is where everything just clicks. You get that peaceful, tucked-away, country quiet feel, while still being just a few miles to downtown Lewes and minutes from Rehoboth Beach. Mornings can start slow and quiet, and within a short drive you are at the beach, grabbing dinner, or enjoying everything coastal living has to offer. It is that rare balance of space, convenience, and lifestyle all wrapped into one. This is more than a home.
It is a vibe.
It is a lifestyle.
And it is ready for its next chapter.
