About This Home

As of May 2021

Delightfully Refreshing Townhome in Bear Trap Dunes backing to Pond and Glorious Sunsets offers 3 Bedrooms, 2.5 Baths and major upgrades/renovations, and newer mechanicals making the home unlike any other in the Community! Certainly this home Stands Out for it's close location to Indoor Pool/Tennis and Clubhouse - but also for its Hardwood Floors, Upgraded Kitchen Countertops & Backsplash, Renovated Italian Tile Shower in the Owner's Suite. Sellers added Rinnai Hot Water, Gas Forced Air Heat that is New within 2 years. Also new within 2 years is the Carpeting/Premium Padding. And then unlike any Home in Bear Trap, there is a 2nd Floor Loft that has been added with Built Ins - and additional Bonus Storage. Add to all that, the Porch has been upgraded to a 3 Season Room. Deck and Garden in rear faces a calming Pond with Fountain and lush landscaping maintained by HOA. The rear Garden and Trees with the Pond backdrop have been the source of great enjoyment for Sellers who are the original Owners and have never rented the property. For peace of mind, though there were no problems, Sellers also had a crawl space liner installed as they prepared to sell the home thinking a buyer would like that feature. Bear Trap is only minutes from Bethany Beach, home of 3 9-Hole Golf Courses complete with Golf Club & Shop, Driving Range, Putting Green and Chipping Green. On-Site Dining, Close to Shopping, In Season Beach Shuttle, Indoor and Outdoor Pools, Fitness Center, Sauna, Basketball Courts, Tennis Courts. Sidewalks, Street Lights and an In-Town Location Covered by Town Services. This Home is a Rare Gem in a Wonderful Year-Round & Vacation Community.
