What's special
Back on the market because buyer's house did not sell. Welcome to this exceptional waterfront retreat in Frederica, Delaware, offering the perfect blend of luxury, privacy, and comfort on 15 picturesque acres. Boasting more than 5,300 square feet of living space across two levels, this custom-built home features 4 spacious bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The heart of the home is the beautifully appointed kitchen, showcasing soft-close cabinetry with crown molding, granite countertops, a Corian double sink, double water filtration system, and a full suite of stainless-steel appliances. Wide-plank hardwood flooring flows throughout much of the home, adding warmth and timeless elegance. Designed with thoughtful craftsmanship, the home features rounded wall corners, an inviting open-concept layout, and a stunning all-seasons room that captures beautiful views of the surrounding property. The luxurious primary suite includes a tiled walk-in shower, while a secondary bathroom offers a relaxing Jacuzzi tub. Additional highlights include a monitored fire and burglar alarm system, eight color video surveillance cameras with motion recording, and a geothermal heating system valued at approximately $50,000, providing energy-efficient year-round comfort. The partially finished basement is approximately 90% complete and offers additional living space, including a bonus room ideal for a home office, gym, media room, or guest accommodations. Two mounted televisions—one in the primary bedroom and one in the basement family room—are included with the sale. Outdoor living is equally impressive, featuring an above-ground saltwater pool complete with its own deck, accessories and pool deck furniture. The expansive waterfront setting provides endless opportunities to enjoy nature, recreation, and breathtaking views while maintaining the privacy and tranquility of a large acreage estate.
