About This Home

As of February 2025

This stunning home is situated on a very large lot which is one of the most private in North Bethany. Just 3rd lot from oceanfront and steps to the pristine private beach plus one of just 2 oceanside pools in North Bethany. This boutique enclave of beautiful homes, is by far, one of the most desirable along Delaware's beaches. Interior designed by owner/ professional designer for relaxed luxury at the beach. Many of the high quality finishes such as blonde French Oak hardwood 7.5" plank flooring, Visual Comfort lighting, Franke sink, Rohl fixtures, and the list goes on. Almost completely furnished (Master bedroom, artwork and personal items and pieces are excluded) the furniture was carefully chosen just for this home. Extensive decking including a roof top deck, private back deck for entertaining, and piped in gas for the crystal fire pit in the screened porch, add so much to the ambiance to this lovely sanctuary. Built in 2015, the owner hasn't stopped upgrading this home. Kitchen reno in 2020 with Quartz Countertops and backsplash, lighting, and much more. Also added in 2020, drop zone room, industrial sink and Speed Queen in laundry. Elevator to all 3 levels. 6th bedroom is furnished as an office for remote working or school with whole house surge protection. Meticulously maintained. Enjoy Delaware's low property tax and no sales tax.
