Discover a rare offering of over 5 acres in a prime coastal location, just minutes from the beaches of Bethany and Fenwick Island. This expansive property presents a unique opportunity for both end-users and investors seeking land near the Delaware coast with flexibility and future potential. With no HOA restrictions, the possibilities are wide open—design and build a custom coastal estate, create a private retreat with room for a pool and additional structures, or explore subdivision potential for multiple homesites (subject to approvals). The generous acreage allows for privacy, space, and versatility that is increasingly hard to find this close to the beach. Ideally positioned near shopping, dining, golf, and marinas, this property offers convenient access to coastal amenities while maintaining a peaceful, tucked-away setting. Adding to its appeal, the property has been recently surveyed and includes an approved DNREC site evaluation for a septic system, valid through March 6, 2029. The parcel also features an existing entrance with a DELDOT No Objection to Recordation dated January 13, 2025, with Lot 1 and the residual lands sharing a single access from SCR 385 via the existing entrance. Whether you're looking to build now or invest for the future, this is an exceptional opportunity to secure land in one of Sussex County's most desirable and growing areas.
