Description
Tucked between the quaint downtowns of millsboro and dagsboro lies this lovingly renovated 1950s cottage, offering timeless charm with modern comforts. enjoy unobstructed views of the indian river bay from the open-concept kitchen, living area, and primary bedroom—your daily dose of serenity awaits. inside, the home features 2 cozy bedrooms and 1 full bath, with thoughtful updates throughout. the living and kitchen area is bathed in natural light, with a wood-burning stove adding warmth and character. a 10-foot sliding glass door was installed to lead out onto the spacious deck—perfect for morning coffee, evening sunsets, and entertaining under the stars. this private waterfront oasis offers direct-private access to a navigable waterway with a 75 ft. (+/-) grandfathered-in dock (the dock just needs a little tlc to shine again—material is being left on the property to finish this project). whether you're boating, fishing, or simply soaking in the view, this spot is a rare find. major upgrades include a new septic system and well, new plumbing and electrical throughout, a new roof (2016), and a new water heater (2017) and outside shower- making this vintage gem move-in ready. no hoa fees! the septic system was installed for a 4-bedroom home, and a structural engineer has approved the foundation to support a second story- making it easy to add an addition if it suits your needs. if you are seeking peaceful waterfront living with character and convenience, this hidden treasure is ready to welcome you home.
