Property Description
Enjoy the best of both beach and boating from this canal-front home in sought-after South Bethany, ideally situated on a wide canal with direct water views, a private boat dock, and easy access to Assawoman Bay. Just a short walk or bike ride away, South Bethanys exceptionally wide, lifeguarded beach is ideal for relaxing days along the shoreline. Inside, this custom-built 3-bedroom, 2-bath home features a bright, open floor plan enhanced by new LVP flooring and an abundance of natural light. The kitchen is open to the dining and living areas, creating an inviting gathering space with water views and easy access to the screened porch. Overlooking the canal, the screened porch and deck provide a peaceful setting for morning coffee, evening meals, or simply relaxing by the water. The primary bedroom features a private en-suite bathroom, while two additional guest bedrooms share a second full bathroom. An impressive approximately 1,100-square-foot garage provides parking for up to four vehicles along with exceptional space for bikes, beach gear, water toys, boat storage, and more. A separate workshop area adds even greater versatility. The home was also thoughtfully designed with space already incorporated for the future addition of an interior staircase or elevator. Outside, enjoy Trex decking, an outdoor shower with changing area, and a private dock that makes it easy to launch a day of boating, fishing, or crabbing right from your backyard. Additional improvements include a newer roof, HVAC system, and water heater. With no HOA and an enviable location offering both waterfront living and convenient access to South Bethanys beautiful beach, this coastal home presents a wonderful opportunity to enjoy everything that makes life at the Delaware coast so special.
