Property Description
LOOK NO FURTHER — COASTAL LIVING ON AN EXQUISITE COUNTRY ESTATE! This beautifully updated and lovingly maintained coastal estate on nine acres is surrounded by a peaceful wooded backdrop and lighted natural ponds with fountains! Luxurious living is made easy with a heated indoor lap pool, hot tub and firepit for outdoor relaxation, and enough acreage for horses — reminiscent of Middleburg, VA’s beautiful equine country. Gorgeous outdoor gardens host meandering paver paths with plenty of room for a second pool. This gated estate is located just a short distance to Lewes, Rehoboth Beach, and all the fantastic amenities that Southern Delaware has to offer! Highlights include 4–5 bedrooms (all en suite), 6.5 bathrooms, 4 fireplaces (2 woodburning and 2 gas), formal living and dining rooms, a den, an elevator, and an amazing kitchen with glass vaulted ceiling and enormous butler’s pantry with adjacent mudroom. The kitchen, a total chef’s delight, offers Italian marble tile flooring, gas and induction cooktop, and steam oven. The kitchen cabinetry, which was imported from England and designed by Mark Wilkinson, makes this home perfect for entertaining. Additional first-floor highlights include a breakfast area off the kitchen, a powder room, and hardwood floors throughout (except for the kitchen). Laundry areas are located on both the first floor (by the pool area) and the second floor, accessible via the elevator. Second-floor amenities include both a primary suite with a sitting room, remodeled bathroom and walk-in closet as well as three guest bedrooms with wood flooring and architectural trim. The third level hosts a large guest suite with open-air bathtub. This floor also offers plenty of storage and space which could be used as private offices, an expansive loft area, fifth bedroom, yoga/exercise room, or whatever else your imagination can dream of. The indoor pool area is heated by propane and includes cabinet storage, sink, microwave, wine refrigerator, cathedral ceiling with multiple skylights, multiple lounge areas and a changing room with a full bath and lockers for convenience. The carriage house could be renovated into a garage apartment or additional guest suite. Plans are available for this area as well as for two primary bedroom closet designs. Additionally, this home boasts two garages (one of which is a detached three-car garage with concrete flooring), irrigation system for landscaping, and two-zone geothermal heating and cooling. This incredible property will not last long, so schedule your tour today!
