Property Description

Welcome to refined coastal luxury in Lewes, roughly 5 miles from the beach and ideally located a little over two hours from Philadelphia, Washington, Baltimore, Annapolis, and St. Michaels. This like new home delivers all the benefits of new construction without the wait, elevated by nearly $400,000 in thoughtful upgrades and high end finishes that would cost significantly more to replicate in today's market.

Perfectly positioned along Love Creek, with no remaining buildable lots, this 4 bed, 3 full bathroom 2 half bathroom property offers rare, protected water views, added privacy, and a peaceful natural setting that is increasingly hard to find.

Inside, 10-foot ceilings and expansive windows create a bright, airy atmosphere. Engineered hardwood floors run throughout the main living areas, complemented by an open layout ideal for everyday living and entertaining. Just off the entry, a versatile flex space can serve as a home office, playroom, media room, yoga studio, or more.

The gourmet kitchen features stainless steel appliances, ceiling-height cabinetry with soft-close features, a tiled backsplash, a large single-basin sink, and an expansive walk-in pantry with custom shelving. Cathedral wood ceiling beams add warmth and architectural character.

The living room showcases custom built-ins and a gas fireplace with a floor-to-ceiling stone surround and substantial mantel, blending comfort and elegance.

Designed for flexibility, the home is ideal as a primary residence, second home, or for multigenerational living. A second first-floor en suite is perfect for guests, while the front two bedrooms can be separated by a pocket door to create a private wing.

The primary suite offers a tray ceiling, recessed lighting, ceiling fan, and large windows with water views. The spa-like bath includes dual vanities with upgraded stone countertops, soft-close cabinetry, a fully tiled walk-in shower, linen closet, private water closet, and two oversized walk-in closets with custom shelving.

Upstairs, a loft provides additional living space along with a bonus room that can function as a fifth bedroom or guest suite. A second-floor balcony offers a peaceful spot to enjoy morning coffee.

Additional features include brand new carpet in all bedrooms and the loft, updated lighting and ceiling fans, and a spacious laundry area with adjoining storage.

Step outside to a private backyard oasis with a 3-season room and a large Trex deck with vinyl railings, perfect for relaxing or entertaining while overlooking Love Creek. Professionally designed landscaping surrounds the home, with lawn care included in the low monthly HOA.

Mature trees line the rear yard, creating one of the most private settings in the community. Low-maintenance upgrades like gutter guards and an irrigation system add long-term value and convenience.

The oversized garage includes a 5-foot bump-out, electric openers, and a tankless instant hot water heater.

Residents enjoy resort-style amenities, including a kayak launch to Love Creek, walking trails, tennis and pickleball courts, a pool, clubhouse, fitness center playground, and outdoor gathering areas with grills and a fireplace. A community dock/pier provides a perfect spot to take in the waterfront views.

A home of this caliber, with these upgrades and protected water views, would cost near $1.2M to replicate today, making this an exceptional value near the Delaware beaches.
