About This Home
As of May 2023A coveted location East of Rt 1, in the heart of Lewes, DE, in the premier Schell Brothers resort community of Governors is where you will find exquisite Villa-style/Extended length home. The covered entry of 31382 Causey Rd invites you to come in and explore all this amazing home has to offer. Two levels of light filled interiors blend coastal living with an open floor plan, and generous entertaining spaces, making it simply a spectacular place for family and friends to gather and grow. The foyer unfolds into the great room bathed in natural light and panoramic views from the transom-topped picture embellished with Hunter Douglas covering which are found throughout the home. The heart of the home, the gourmet kitchen does not disappoint, complete with plentiful 42” gray shaker-style cabinetry, contrasting Quartz countertops and classic brick patterned subway tile backsplash, suite of stainless-steel appliances, and center island with undermount sink, and breakfast bar, accented with beadboard. Whether casual dining or dinner parties you have options, serve guests at the breakfast bar, in the adjacent dining area, or take the party outside to the grand two-story, bump-out, screened porch perfect for al-fresco dining and offering egress to the patio. The living room is anchored by a gas fireplace, adorned with a handsome mantle and slate hearth, sided by built-in niches with closed cabinetry below, the supreme spot for cozy get-togethers in front of the fire. Retreat to the primary bedroom adorned with a deep-tray ceiling, offering two walk-in closets and spa-like ensuite complete with a dual vanity, generous tiled stall shower with bench, and private water closet. Also on the main level is a powder bath central to the great room, and interior access to the garage off the foyer. Ascend the staircase off the foyer to the upper level, hosting more entertaining space and the sleeping quarters. The bonus loft space is the ideal spot to gather at the end of the day to watch a movie or play a game, or just curl up with a book to get away from the world below. There are three additional bedrooms on this level, two with walk-in closets, a hall bath, and the third bedroom has it’s own ensuite. A full walk-up set of stairs leads to the attic space offering a sizable, floored area with high overhead clearance, great for storage or another bonus space. The Governors resort community offers an incredible Lewes location and extraordinary amenities including a clubhouse with lounge, bar, fitness center, pool with sunken bar, kid’s splash zone, private cabanas and so much more. Want to spend the day at the beach and not get in the car?
