Windstone

Every home we see for sale in Windstone is a resale. The original builders have finished here.
Who built them: D.R. Horton built most of the homes we have seen listed, with plans such as the Arlington, Bristol, Clifton and Azalea. Capano Residential built the rental section on Stormy Way, with three-bedroom homes. The old page also named LC Homes.
Layout: most plans put the owner's suite on the first floor. Some, like the Azalea, add an upstairs loft and a fourth bedroom.
Size: 2026 listings and sales run about 1,700 to 2,530 square feet, with three or four bedrooms and two or three baths, most with a two-car garage.
Age: the homes we found on record were built from 2017 to 2021.
Recent prices: 2026 sales ran from $419,000 to $515,000, and a 2026 listing asked $524,900.
The exact size, age and layout of any home is on its listing, and we will pull it for you.

The amenities are run by the homeowners association and sit around one clubhouse.
Clubhouse: meeting and game rooms, including billiards, and a fitness room.
Pool: an outdoor pool with a sundeck, open in season.
Outside: walking and biking paths around the ponds and the common grounds.

Part of Windstone was built as single-family rental homes, owned and leased by one company, and some privately owned homes are also rented out.
What it means: a share of the homes are leased rather than owner occupied. That is common in newer Sussex County communities, but it is worth knowing before you buy.
Lenders: some loan programs ask how many homes in a community are owner occupied. Your lender will tell you if that applies to your loan.
The rules: the association documents set the rules on leasing for privately owned homes. Read them before you buy if you might rent your home later.
We will get the association's resale documents, including its leasing rules, for any home you are considering.

Windstone has a Milton address but sits outside the Town of Milton limits, in unincorporated Sussex County, off Route 1 between Milton and Lewes.
Beaches: Lewes Beach and Cape Henlopen State Park are about 20 minutes away, and Broadkill Beach is a short drive east.
Health care: Beebe Walk-In Milton is on Route 16, and Beebe's main hospital on Savannah Road in Lewes is about 15 minutes away.
Everyday errands: Food Lion on Broadkill Road in Milton, and the stores along Route 1 toward Lewes.
Schools: Cape Henlopen School District. Confirm school assignments with the district for any specific address.

Windstone has one homeowners association, with a professional manager.
What the fees cover: lawn care, the common areas, the clubhouse and pool, road maintenance, snow removal, reserves and management, per 2026 listings.
Recent figures: 2026 listings show a fee of $459 a quarter, about $153 a month. A home that sold in 2024 showed $139 a month.
The rules: the association has recorded covenants. Read them before you plan an exterior change, a fence or a lease.
Fees change. We will get the current figures for any home you are considering.

The practical details of owning here.
Utilities: public sewer, with central or community water, and metered propane for heat, hot water and cooking in the homes we have seen listed. Confirm the water provider for the specific home.
Maintenance: the association mows the lawns. You maintain the outside of your own home.
Garages: most homes have a two-car attached garage.
Pets: pet rules are in the governing documents. Confirm them for the specific home.
Ask us for the covenants before you write an offer.

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: Windstone is outside the Town of Milton limits, so the property tax bill is county and school tax with no town tax on top. Sussex County reassessed every property recently, so older tax figures on a listing may not reflect what you will pay.
Help programs: Sussex County has property and school tax assistance programs for owners who qualify by age, income or disability.
