Description

A show stopper! elegant, solidly constructed 3 or 4-bedroom, 3.5 bath custom home located in the heart of the upscale beach community of middlesex beach. just a few short blocks to the beautiful sands and waves of the quiet beach and majestic ocean. bike or walk to downtown bethany beach shopping, the boardwalk, and tons of award winning restaurants. valuable property nearly 1/3 of an acre, with a spacious yard, long driveway and plenty of parking! enter via the large covered porch in to the impressive foyer with elegant moldings, rich hardwood floors, and natural light. the open-concept main level features a large stunning eat-in kitchen with luxurious custom finishes; veined quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, double wall ovens, gas cooking, plenty of storage, built-in serving area and island seating. thoughtfully located, just off the kitchen is a full service laundry room with 2nd refrigerator which attaches to the oversized side-loading 2 car garage. the main level features a spacious owner’s suite (15 ft x 26 ft) with two walk-in closets and a lavishly appointed owner’s bath. also on the main level are 2 generous guest bedrooms each with private baths and an available private entrance. solid hardwood floors and high quality trim details tie the spaces together throughout. enjoy a full formal dining room, central living room with custom built-in cabinetry and a wood burning fireplace. then step into a light-soaked sunroom surrounded by glass and overlooking the huge back yard which could provide the backdrop for large gatherings, cook-outs, or other affairs from casual to formal. step out of the sunroom to the picturesque decking, outside shower, and adorable little house which could fulfill many different purposes from beach toy storage, to garden shed, to work space, art villa or playhouse. pass your time on the covered front porch with a cool glass of lemonade or favorite wine. nothing beats strolling up to the private beach to watch the sunrise in the morning with your coffee. upstairs, this home offers incredible opportunities to expand into the bunk room, or the open loft which overlooks the living area and could be a game area, reading cubby or extra sleeping space. enjoy 1482 of walk in unfinished storage space or choose to finish some of the space which features two "rooms" and a second staircase leading to the garage. details that would make this home a pleasure to own are low maintenance hardi-plank siding, a dedicated storage/mechanical room, and multi-zone hvac thoughtfully designed to minimize expense if all parts of the home are not occupied. enjoy very low delaware taxes and hoa fee. owned by just one family, never rented, this home would make an elegant second home, year round home, or investment.
