Property Description

QUICK MOVE-IN!!! UNBEATABLE VALUE ON SCHELL BUILT HOME!! Do you love nature and want a private lot backing to open space? THIS IS THE PLACE! Lewes Lifestyle with a Milton address. Close to all the beaches, Lewes, Rehoboth, State Park....tucked away yet extremely central. Built in 2024, like new. Natural gas! Why wait to build and pay for aftermarket upgrades? Priced below replacement cost - building the same home today would cost more. Annual taxes only $770!! Yes - you read that correctly $770/year! Upgraded home in Lightship Cove on a PREMIUM POND FRONT LOT that is also next to large open space with unbeatable sunsets (see the pics!) and tranquil pond, tree and fountain view - giving you maximum privacy. The trees behind the community are protected. Expanded Layout: 2-foot extensions in the living and dining rooms, plus a gourmet kitchen with a custom designer backsplash and extra storage under the island! Custom Screened Porch: Built with high-visibility "invisible" screening to maximize air flow and pond views. (It really makes a difference!) Luxury Extras: Primary closet organizers by California Closets, whole-house water filtration system, epoxy garage floor, and built-in Atmos surround sound in the family room. Conditioned crawlspace. 9' ceilings. 2x6 construction! Location & Amenities: Located just 15 minutes to Downtown Lewes and Cape Henlopen beaches, under 1 mile to the Lewes-Georgetown Bike Trail, and close to Bayhealth Urgent Care. Take advantage of low Delaware taxes alongside resort-style amenities at The Beacon, including a pool, pickleball courts, tot lot, fire pit and crab shack. Smaller 97-home community (NOT 55+) designed for laid-back coastal living with scenic pond views and preservation land, avoiding the crowded feel of larger beach-area developments. Perfect home for those looking to downsized or start their new home journey in the beach area. Ask to see the upgrades list!
