    What's special

    Wide streetsCommunity swimming poolSpacious homeBeautifully maintained common areasGenerous quarter-acre-plus homesitesRecessed lightingCozy gas fireplace
    Impeccably maintained and only six years young, this spacious home in the desirable Lighthouse Crossing community offers the perfect blend of comfort, style, and functionality. Step inside to a two-story foyer that creates an immediate sense of openness. The dining room is located just off the entrance, while the foyer flows seamlessly into the beautifully appointed kitchen and great room. The kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring white cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances—including a side-by-side refrigerator with ice maker, dishwasher, built-in microwave, garbage disposal, and a natural gas five-burner range—a large center island, and an oversized breakfast bar with seating for four or more. The adjacent laundry room provides convenient access to the attached garage. Recessed lighting continues from the kitchen into the spacious great room, where large windows fill the space with natural light while overlooking the private, fenced backyard and deck. A cozy gas fireplace creates the perfect gathering place on cool evenings, while sliding glass doors open to the rear deck, extending your living space outdoors for relaxing or entertaining. Outside, the large fenced backyard offers plenty of room for outdoor enjoyment, pets, and play. The thoughtfully designed first-floor primary suite is privately situated and features new luxury vinyl plank flooring, a generous walk-in closet, and a sun-filled ensuite bath complete with dual vanities, and walk-in shower. Two additional first-floor bedrooms are located on the opposite side of the home, offering privacy for family or guests, and share a well-appointed hall bath. Upstairs, you'll find a generous loft/family room with a door that provides separation from the main level—ideal for a media room, game room, or second living area. A spacious fourth bedroom and full bath complete the upper level, while a portion of the loft can easily be enclosed to create a fifth bedroom if desired. The front loading garage is an extra large 2 1/5 car size, great for storage & beach toys! Lighthouse Crossing is known for its generous quarter-acre-plus homesites, wide streets, beautifully maintained common areas, scenic fishing ponds, and a community swimming pool, creating an inviting neighborhood atmosphere just minutes from Delaware's beaches, shopping, dining, and recreation.
