About This Home

As of January 2024

If you are looking to start your Bethany Beach story you need look no further than 603 Cape Eleuthera Road in the very desirable Bahamas Beach community. This 3 bed, 2 bath, Key West style home comes fully furnished with everything you need for a full time home, vacation getaway or investment property with reliable rental potential. Incredibly located less than 2 miles from Bethany Beach and South Bethany Beach, you are just a short walk or bike ride to toes in the sand. With only 74 homes, this community has the quintessential beach cottage feel with a distinctively Caribbean style. As you pull in the driveway you’ll find ample parking for guests and plenty of storage for your beach toys as well as a convenient outdoor shower. Upstairs you enter to a beautifully appointed screened porch, perfect for a leisurely morning coffee. The living room dining space and kitchen are all open with a gas fireplace and gorgeous and peaceful views of trees from every window. Off the kitchen is the sliding glass door to a wraparound deck that runs the span of the home and overlooks a serene wall of trees, making a great space for entertaining, grilling after a hard day at the beach, or just curling up with a book and a cocktail. Also on the main level is the huge main level primary bedroom with full bath and walk in closet, as well as a washer and dryer. Upstairs are two enormous bedrooms and a full bath with plenty of space for family and friends. There is a large locking owners closet which makes this home ready to rent from day one. Homes in this community can be highly successful short-term rental during beach season.

This home is located close to world class restaurants, shops, and all that beach life has to offer. Homes in this community sell quickly, so if you are looking to start your salt life, start here.
