About this home
This beautifully maintained five bedroom home is a standout offering in the highly sought after community of Henlopen Landing in Lewes. Ideally located just minutes from downtown Lewes, it places you close to acclaimed restaurants, charming boutiques, and the natural beauty of Cape Henlopen State Park, with its miles of beaches, fishing areas, walking paths, and scenic bike trails. This home truly captures the relaxed, vibrant lifestyle that defines coastal living at its best.
Thoughtfully designed across three stories, this home boasts an abundance of architectural details, including transom and Palladian windows that fill the space with natural light. The inviting front porch, ideal for relaxing on breezy days, sets the stage for what awaits inside.
Step through the foyer to find a stately dining room on one side and a formal living room on the other, anchored by a stunning Palladian window that radiates elegance. The journey continues into the expansive living room, where high ceilings and a cozy fireplace create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The open floor plan seamlessly connects to the kitchen, designed for both style and functionality.
The gourmet kitchen features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a gas cooktop, a double wall oven, display cabinets, a pantry, and hardwood floors.

The entry-level primary suite serves as a peaceful sanctuary, highlighted by a tray ceiling and warm hardwood floors. The spacious en suite bath features a double vanity, a luxurious soaking tub, and a tiled, glass-enclosed shower, with plantation shutters adding both privacy and charm above the tub.
