Property Description

Beautifully appointed coastal home welcomes you with a dramatic vaulted entry featuring a striking wood banister and railing design that creates a bridge overlooking the Great Room, setting the tone for the home's open, airy, and elegant flow. The stunning Great Room showcases a wall of windows overlooking the private rear yard, while two custom, triple bookshelves surround the natural gas fireplace mantel, creating a warm and inviting focal point for everyday living and entertaining. The upgraded Gourmet Kitchen is equipped with GE appliances, abundant cabinetry, a breakfast bar with seating for five, walk-in pantry, and designer tile backsplash with decorative accent, flowing effortlessly into a bright vaulted Sunroom with sliding glass doors leading to the outdoor living space. The first-floor Primary Suite offers a peaceful retreat with tray ceiling, plantation shutters, and a beautifully appointed bathroom featuring a soaking tub, custom tile work, and private toilet room. A private Office with French doors with a transom window and plantation shutters adds both function and elegance, while a full bathroom conveniently located down the hall enhances main-level living. The second floor offers a spacious layout with an Ensuite Bedroom featuring a private Bathroom and walk-in closet, along with two additional Bedrooms and a hall Bath. The oversized Finished Basement expands the living space with a large media/recreation area, an additional flex room, and a full Bathroom, while also offering substantial unfinished space ideal for storage, a workshop, or hobby area. Outdoor living is equally impressive, featuring a beautifully landscaped yard with a pergola draped in wisteria, paver patio, built-in grill, natural gas outdoor fireplace, and garden beds for flowers and fresh vegetables, enhanced by lush plantings including a striking 25' banana plant and mature elephant ears positioned behind and alongside the patio for a private, resort-like setting. Situated in a quiet enclave of just 80 single-family homes in the Breakwater community, adjacent to the scenic Breakwater Trail, this home offers easy access for biking or walking to downtown Lewes and the beaches. Located approximately 1.5 miles to Lewes Beach and 4 miles to Cape Henlopen State Park, residents enjoy exceptional amenities including a fitness center, pool complex, and social activities. This is a rare opportunity to own a refined coastal retreat offering space, style, and an unbeatable location.
