THE PERFECT OPPORTUNITY—whether you’re seeking a dream personal residence, a luxurious vacation home, or a fantastic investment with rental potential, this one-of-a-kind property must be seen to be fully appreciated. Enjoy luxury living east of Route 1—free from HOA and just 5 minutes from Lewes Beach. The main house was completed in December 2023 and then enhanced with a custom-built detached garage with loft apartment, a heated concrete pool and spa, custom fencing with solar lights, and beautifully designed outdoor living spaces. Inside, the open-concept floor plan is filled with natural light, soaring ceilings, and sophisticated finishes. The gourmet kitchen features quartz countertops, a massive center island with breakfast bar, Café appliances, and natural gas cooking. Entertain with ease in the bright living room with cozy gas fireplace, work from a private home office, and enjoy two first-floor owner’s suites with walk-in closets and spa-like baths. Upstairs offers a spacious loft plus four additional bedrooms, two with en suite baths. The finished basement takes entertaining to another level with a family room, game area, bar, home gym, and half bath, along with abundant storage in a conditioned area and walk-in attic. The 3-car attached garage includes an EV charger, sleek black glass garage doors, and a black carbon epoxy floor. Car enthusiasts will love the custom 8-car detached garage with epoxy floors, black glass doors, ceiling fans, and LED lighting. Above it sits a 790 sq. ft. apartment with living room, kitchen, bedroom, full bath, and mezzanine—ideal for guests, in-laws, or excellent rental potential. Step outside to your private retreat: a heated pool and spa (each with its own pump and heater), double courtyard with fireplace and built-in grill, custom lighting, screened porch, outdoor shower, and fenced yard with solar accents. A paver-edged driveway extends around the garage for added space and function. 2025 road improvements are currently being completed to provide convenient access to nearby Lewes-Georgetown walking and biking path. Premium features include: whole-property security camera system, smart home technology, pre-wiring for solar, electric blinds on rear windows, plantation shutters throughout, and custom drapes in living and dining areas.
