Lewes Crest

Every home in Lewes Crest was built by Evergreene Homes, and every home is now a resale.
Home type: townhomes, some as end units, each with a one-car garage and a driveway space.
Size: the builder listed about 1,845 to 2,303 square feet. 2024 to 2026 listings show about 1,900 to 2,400 square feet, which can include a top-floor flex room.
Bedrooms: three bedrooms in most homes, with four in some. Listings show two and a half to three and a half baths.
Layout: the main living space is on the first floor and the bedrooms are upstairs, so plan on stairs in every home here.
Age: the homes were built from 2020 to 2022.
Recent prices: 2024 to 2026 sales and listings have run from about $445,000 to about $520,000.
The exact size and layout of any home is on its listing, and we will pull it for you.

The amenities here are simple, and the trail is the biggest one.
Pool: a fenced outdoor community pool.
The trail: the Georgetown-Lewes Trail runs beside the community, and it connects toward the Junction and Breakwater Trail for a ride toward Rehoboth Beach.
Grounds: landscaped common areas, cared for by the association.
What is not here: there is no clubhouse, fitness center or golf course inside the community.

A September 2026 listing in Lewes Crest says short-term rentals are permitted, and that shapes how the homes, the pool and the parking are used in summer.
Check the documents: rental rules are set by the association and can change by vote. Read the current declaration and rules before you buy.
If you want to rent: Sussex County has its own rental registration and tax rules on top of the association's. Confirm them before you count on rental income.
If you do not: ask us how many homes have been rented recently, and we will look at what the records show.
We will get the resale certificate and the current rules for any home you are considering before you commit.

Read this first: Active Adults Realty is not a tax, legal or financial advisor and nothing below is advice. Confirm every figure with your own tax professional and with Sussex County before you rely on it.
The state picture: Delaware has no state sales tax, no estate tax and no inheritance tax, and Social Security is not taxed.
The local picture: if a home is outside the City of Lewes limits, the property tax bill is county and school tax with no city tax on top. Sussex County reassessed every property recently, so older tax figures on a listing may not reflect what you will pay.
Call 302-549-5164 and we will pull the recorded figures for the specific home you are considering.
