Property Description
Welcome to this nicely maintained 2-bedroom, 2-bath oceanfront condominium in Dover House, offering one of the most spectacular views in all of Sea Colony. Perched on the 5th floor, this home captures breathtaking panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean and pristine beach from the moment you step through the front door. Lovingly owned and never rented, this exceptional property has been thoughtfully updated over the years. The coastal-inspired kitchen features updated white cabinetry with beautiful, speckled quartz countertops and white appliances. Both the living room and oversized primary bedroom offer updated sliding glass doors that lead directly to the oceanfront balcony, maximizing natural light and showcasing the stunning views. The spacious primary suite enjoys incredible ocean views and includes an updated bath featuring a newer vanity, 12" x 12" tile flooring, and a beautifully tiled shower surround accented with decorative tile details. The guest bath has also been updated with a newer vanity, flooring, and tiled shower surround. Additional improvements include an updated HVAC system and ceiling fans in the living room and both bedrooms. The generous guest bedroom features plantation shutters and a floor-to-ceiling window, flooding the room with natural light. Step outside to the expansive balcony and enjoy a wide-span view of the coastline, beach, and ocean-a perfect setting for morning coffee, afternoon relaxation, or evening moonlights. Dover House offers one of Sea Colony's premier oceanfront locations, being just steps from the indoor pool and fitness center located in the neighboring Edgewater House. This is a rare opportunity to own a lovingly cared-for oceanfront retreat in one of Bethany Beach's most sought-after resort communities. Magnificent views, exceptional updates, and a never-rented history make this Sea Colony gem truly special.
