Property Description

Rarely available and on the market for the first time since 1985, this stunning original-owner & never rented end-unit waterfront townhouse in Port Lewes offers an unparalleled coastal lifestyle. Because it is a highly coveted end unit, you will enjoy enhanced privacy, quiet surroundings, and additional side windows that bathe the home in gorgeous natural light while framing dedicated bay views from the upgraded kitchen. This home if your front-row seat to an unobstructed panorama, featuring two Harbor of Refuge lighthouses, Cape Henlopen, scenic sailboat races, dolphins, and migrating birds.

The interior features a seamless & meticulously improved unit with premium upgrades. The kitchen boasts custom Brookhaven cabinetry, sleek Corian countertops, and upgraded lighting. The main living space is anchored by a cozy Regency gas fireplace and a beautifully integrated custom entertainment wall feature with a travertine counter. Built for comfort and long-term peace of mind, the townhouse features high-end Andersen 400 series windows and sliders , with the bayside further fortified by Andersen Coastal Series Storm Watch glass. Recent mechanical upgrades include a high-efficiency multi-stage Trane HVAC heat pump system and a fully replaced electrical panel. This home stands on a concrete block foundation with concrete demising walls for superior fire safety, structural integrity, and exceptional sound control. Located in the amenity-rich community of Port Lewes, just steps from the beach, a community pool, tennis and pickleball courts, a private dog walk, and a private fishing and crabbing pier. Directly adjacent to Cape Henlopen State Park, the Atlantic Ocean, and expansive cycling trails, you can easily ride your bike to outdoor concerts, acclaimed local restaurants, art festivals, and the historic charm of downtown Lewes. Complete with parking exclusive to owners and guests and a 24-hour on-site resident manager, this exceptional property represents a true once-in-a-generation waterfront opportunity.
