About This Home

As of June 2022

A picturesque custom home brimming with details, luxury finishes and timeless appeal – it’s no surprise this home was featured on the esteemed Beach & Bay Cottage Tour! You will feel immediately welcomed walking up to 796 Hickman Drive in the dappled shade provided by mature trees as you approach the covered front porch. This gorgeous home was custom built by a respected local builder and offers an open Great Room, Office (or Den), and Owner’s Bedroom Suite all on the first floor. The gathering space of the Great Room is flanked by the Gas Fireplace and Custom Built-ins on either side, and the pristine Chef’s dream of a kitchen on the other. From the primary details, like fine cabinetry, farmhouse sink, granite, and an expansive island, to the small, like a pot-filler faucet and instant hot water – this kitchen serves as a beautiful and impressive space for entertaining. From the Living and Dining spaces, you can choose to walk out to the open deck area for al fresco dining, or directly into the spacious Screened Porch. The Owner’s Suite is tucked away beyond the living space and provides an additional access point to the ample outdoor living area, featuring a hot tub that overlooks the back yard! The Owner’s Bath offers a tiled shower with river rock floor, frameless glass enclosure, expansive dual vanity with granite, separate water closet and access to the walk-in closet with custom built-ins. A laundry room with front load washer and dryer, countertop and cabinets, and a powder room finish off the 1st floor living spaces. Upstairs are three light-filled guest bedrooms, another full bath, and a large 2nd living area with built-ins. A floored walk-in, unfinished area provides lots of extra room for storage, and/or options for additional finished space as desired. This home is situated on a spectacular corner lot in Whites Creek Manor, just steps away from the marina. A side-entry garage and paved drive offer plenty of parking. The outside enjoyment is complete with raised garden beds, an outdoor shower, and lush landscaping. The friendly sought-after neighborhood of Whites Creek Manor has a guarded community pool and tennis courts. Homeowners have the option to join the White Creek Marina for use of the boat ramp for boats, jetskis, SUP or kayaks, or you can seek out a slip to lease or purchase for your many days on the water ahead! From this location, nothing will stop you from exploring Whites Creek which leads directly to the Indian River Bay for all sorts of boating enjoyment. Just a few miles west of Bethany Beach, convenient to the grocery stores, restaurants and other growing local attractions, this property offers an ideal combination of lasting quality details and an outstanding location. Meticulously maintained, thoughtfully appointed and a warm ambiance that you and your family and guests will enjoy for many years to come!
