Property Description

Showcasing timeless Craftsman-inspired architecture and an exceptionally well-designed floor plan, this impeccably maintained custom-built home offers the perfect blend of character, comfort, and modern functionality. A distinctive four-window dormer, decorative gable details, stone and board-and-batten accents, a standing-seam metal overhang above the garage doors, and a welcoming covered front porch create outstanding curb appeal. Inside, a spacious foyer opens to bright, inviting living spaces enhanced by upgraded lighting, ceiling fans, luxury vinyl plank flooring, plush carpeting, shaker doors, and oversized windows. The living room centers around a gas fireplace with a traditional mantel, remote-control operation, and upgraded blower for added comfort and efficiency. The stunning kitchen features granite countertops, 42-inch cabinetry, gas cooking, a center island with breakfast bar seating, a stainless apron-front sink with Moen faucet and a generous walk-in pantry. A dedicated dining room adds an elegant, defined space while complementing the home's open and connected design. From the living area, the screened porch extends the main living space outdoors, creating an inviting setting for relaxing, dining, or entertaining. The primary suite includes an expanded footprint, tray ceiling, dual walk-in closets, and an ensuite bath with double vanities, ceramic tile flooring, a walk-in shower, and private water closet. Two additional bedrooms and a full bath are located on the main level, while upstairs offers a flexible loft area , additional bedroom, and full bath, providing exceptional flexibility for guests, hobbies, or additional living space. Outdoor living is equally impressive with a large fenced backyard backing to trees, an expansive concrete patio, an agricultural well for cost-effective landscape irrigation, and a full walkout basement with plumbing rough-in and endless possibilities for future expansion. Located in Liberty East, residents enjoy a clubhouse with pool, fitness center, game room, and a calendar full of community activities. The neighborhood is known for its attractive custom homes, large homesites, and charming streetscapes, all just minutes from downtown Millsboro, shopping, dining, parks, Delaware beaches, and the Cape May-Lewes Ferry. This home presents in remarkable, like-new condition, having been used only as a second home and never as a full-time residence. Offering timeless architectural character, thoughtful upgrades, flexible living spaces, potential expansion and exceptional care throughout, this is a property you will not want to miss.
