About This Home
As of July 2020Canal front living with beautiful views of Rehoboth Bay and a 5 min boat ride to Delawares most popular beaches. This home is perfect for boaters and fisherman alike from the boat slip and 100 foot bulkhead for toys and guests to park to the full kitchen in the garage for outdoor entertaining while you cook the days catch. Down the street you will find a private boat ramp maintained by the HOA along with more docking and parking for guests. Solar panels on the roof cut down the monthly energy costs along with the energy efficient appliances, windows and doors. Custom built in 2008 with 3 zone heating and air this home has been meticulously taken care of. Entering through the grand double front doors you will find yourself on the first floor where there are 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, a utility room and a mudroom along with entrance to the garage and back deck. On the second floor you will find an open floor plan living area with beautiful bay views, a master suite, and a spot for an elevator. Walking out of the kitchen slider will bring you into the conditioned 4 season room and access to the master bedroom and the vinyl maintenance free wrap around deck. County sewer is scheduled to be installed in 2020 along with dredging of the canal. Flood insurance is remarkably under $1,000.00 annually for this property, giving you one more reason to schedule your showing today!
