Searching for a premium homesite in an established coastal community? Welcome to The Retreat at Love Creek in Lewes, Delaware, where privacy, convenience, and lifestyle come together. Perfectly positioned backing to tranquil woods and Love Creek. Just steps from the community pool. This beautifully maintained Bay Breeze model offers nearly 3,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space with five bedrooms and three full baths. Located only minutes from historic downtown Lewes, Cape Henlopen State Park, the Lewes-Cape May ferry, tax-free shopping, and the beaches of Rehoboth. This home offers both serenity and accessibility. A dramatic two-story living room greets you upon entry, filled with natural light and anchored by a gas fireplace that serves as a warm, inviting focal point. The gourmet kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring tall maple cabinetry with full-extension soft-close drawers, a wine rack, granite countertops, tile backsplash, a center island, and a convenient built-in desk area. Newer GE Profile stainless steel appliances, a gas stove, and a new sink and faucet enhance both style and function. The pantry provides extra storage. The adjoining dining area and family (or morning) room flow seamlessly to a large three-season room, creating an ideal indoor-outdoor entertaining space. The first-floor primary suite offers comfort and privacy, complete with a sitting area and a spa-inspired bath featuring a double vanity, soaking tub, separate shower, private commode, and a huge walk-in closet with a window. On the opposite side of the house, an additional first-floor bedroom with private bath access offers flexibility for guests or multigenerational living. Just off the foyer, a dedicated office or sitting room with glass French doors offering the perfect work-from-home setting. Upstairs, three spacious guest bedrooms provide ample accommodations. The garage features a four-foot extension - 24.5 ft, which is needed for larger vehicles. The garage is fitted with extra shelving for storage. Outdoor living is equally impressive, with an expansive three-season room featuring sliding glass windows, insulated floors and ceilings, engineered hardwood floors, and shiplap walls. Two Trex decks overlook the fully fenced yard with lush landscaping, an irrigation well, and a six-zone irrigation system. Residents enjoy resort-style amenities, including a community pool, a clubhouse with a party room, pickleball, tennis courts, basketball, a tot lot, and a kayak launch onto Love Creek. Recent updates include new interior and exterior trim paint, stainless steel appliances, a sump pump, a tankless hot water heater, and new smoke and carbon monoxide detectors. This home features two HVAC systems, with one newly replaced in 2025. Additional features such as a conditioned crawl space, custom dual-position window shades, eight ceiling fans, wainscoting accents, and a thoughtful mix of tile, engineered hardwood, and carpeted flooring throughout.
