Property Description
This move-in-ready, 125+ year-old home in the heart of Lewes combines historic character with remarkable space and versatility. The 3-bedroom, 2-bath home retains original hardwood floors throughout its main historic living areas, complemented by later additions including a spacious bath with walk-in shower and skylight and a library with built-ins and stained glass opening to a large screened-in porch. A separate two-story outbuilding offers finished flexible-use rooms plus extensive workshop space, with electric, heating and cooling, and plumbing infrastructure in place. Two additional climate-controlled sheds and covered off-street parking add even more utility. Outside, a substantial backyard offers multiple decks, a covered patio, distinctive stone garden, mature trees and natural views beyond. Directly across from Stango Park and a short walk to area bike trails, the town library, and downtown restaurants and shops, the property also offers easy access to Lewes Beach and the state park. 606 Kings Highway offers a rare combination of history, location, flexible space and outdoor living in downtown Lewes.
