Expansive open water views through entire walls of glass from almost every room characterize this charming contemporary home. Located in an exclusive peninsula community of delightfully diverse homes, the new resident will wake to waterscapes, wildlife, bay breezes and quiet relaxation. Entering this home from the giant waterfront deck, you are greeted with a spacious room designed to view the water from virtually every corner. Entertain in the airy open kitchen with a European ambiance, situated to take advantage of the many vistas that envelop this home. The home was taken down to the studs in 2007 and all new wiring, plumbing, kitchen, baths and a large addition with an elevator, new owner's suite, and much more, was completed. Some of the pampered touches in this home are a cedar closet, heated owner's bath flooring, towel warmer, and a generous large tiled walk-in shower. An oversized 2 car garage has room for a workshop or hobby space. Beautifully scaled landscaping with irrigation make yard work minimal. Located on "Beach Cove" just off the Indian River Bay, with easy access to the Atlantic Ocean, restaurants and shopping are available by boat! You'll need to jump on the waiting list for a boat slip in the private community marina if boating is one of your passions. There's also community tennis and pickleball for the enthusiast. Tucked away from resort traffic and crowds, enjoy low HOA fees of $1200/year along with DE low property taxes. Also an owned solar power system further lower your living expenses. This home has loads of storage with a large storage room off the primary bedroom, shelving in the garage plus a large additional shed and a secure area to keep water toys next to the perfect breezy hammock location. All this and located within a few minutes of Bethany, Fenwick and Rehoboth Beach. This well constructed and maintained home offers incredible value with a priceless location and views NOTE: Closet off of 4th BR is plumbed as a full bath so could easily be converted to create a second owner's suite complete with fireplace.
