Property Description
Discover the tranquility and beauty of Moore's Lake at 89 S Shore Drive in Dover, Delaware-where over 120 feet of direct lake frontage invites you to fully embrace waterfront living. This move-in-ready 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home has been thoughtfully transformed in 2022 and 2023, blending modern updates with timeless charm. The exterior immediately impresses with a newly replaced roof accented by two charming dormer windows topped with tin roofing, along with a brand-new fence that enhances the property's appeal. A natural retaining wall along the lake bank and an additional concrete patio add both function and visual interest to the outdoor space. Inside, new flooring throughout creates a fresh, cohesive feel. The beautifully updated kitchen features refaced Amish cabinetry and a stunning custom Amish-made two-tier island with a quartz countertop, gas cooktop, soft-close drawers, abundant storage, and bar seating-perfect for entertaining. The laundry room and half bath were strategically relocated to create a welcoming foyer alcove and an elegant dining area highlighted by graceful arched details. The private owner's suite is conveniently located on the main level and offers a walk-in closet and a renovated ensuite bath complete with a quartz double vanity, built-in cabinetry, and a luxurious jetted walk-in tiled shower. French doors lead to the deck and patio, connected by a wraparound walkway-an ideal spot to relax and enjoy breathtaking sunsets over the lake. The expansive great room features a striking brick gas fireplace, soaring cathedral ceilings, large polygon picture windows that flood the space with natural light, and a loft area overlooking the main living space. The former second-floor storage attic has been fully renovated into a climate-controlled office, providing the perfect dedicated workspace with comfort and style. The lower level offers even more living space, including a spacious family room with a stone wood-burning fireplace flanked by two sliding glass doors showcasing serene lake views. This level also includes a full bathroom, two lakeside bedrooms, and a third bedroom tucked down the hall-ideal for guests or flexible living arrangements.
