Welcome to 38618 Indian Trail in Ocean View, where privacy, nature, and coastal living come together in a truly special setting. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home is elevated on pilings, capturing some of the most breathtaking marsh, woodland, and water views Coastal Delaware has to offer. Situated on a generous half-acre lot adjoining over 500 acres of protected coastal woodlands and wildlife within Fresh Pond State Park, the property offers a rare combination of seclusion and convenience. In addition, neighboring the James Farm Ecological Preserve for even more outdoor opportunities. Enjoy being just 3.4 miles from Bethany Beach and approximately one mile from grocery stores, shopping, and local dining. The main level features expansive wraparound decking with screened areas, creating the perfect space to relax and take in the natural surroundings. Inside, the bright and airy living room is filled with natural light and scenic views from nearly every angle, while vaulted ceilings enhance the open and inviting atmosphere. The recently updated kitchen showcases modern appliances, white cabinetry, and beautiful light-toned countertops. The primary suite is conveniently located on the main level and offers tranquil marsh and water views along with a private bath. Two additional bedrooms are located on the second floor, including one with access to a private balcony deck delivering truly spectacular panoramic views. Designed with future flexibility in mind, the home was constructed to allow for easy expansion, with pilings beneath the decks engineered to support additional living space. A piling plan is available for review. Additional features include a new heat pump installed in August 2023 and an outdoor shower conveniently located beneath the home, ideal after a day at the beach, boating, biking, or golfing. This is a rare opportunity to own a private coastal retreat with direct access to nature while remaining close to all the amenities the Delaware beaches have to offer.
