Description

Have you seen this house? Don't judge it by a quick drive by! What awaits you inside is a true gem and will be your own paradise. Though it looks like just a log home from the road, the home opens to a magical and spacious abode once inside. This fully-remodeled home features four bedrooms and four bathrooms, two of which are ensuite. From the moment you step up on the welcoming front porch and then open the door, you'll be wowed by the careful way the seller has preserved the old and enhanced it with the new. Vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, hewn timbers, exposed beams in the ceilings, a stone fireplace (you can choose to keep it ornamental as it is now or reconnect the propane to it) all in the Great Room, are just the beginning features. A glimpse of a loft area above will have to wait. There's a gourmet kitchen to explore! Just a few steps down the hall from the Great Room and the whole back of the house opens up. Light streams in from all sides with water views of the canal, but ... that kitchen beckons. Marble and quartz, hardwood floors, quiet-close cabinets in navy on the island and white in the perimeter, a Subzero refrigerator/freezer on one wall and a Viking six-burner gas stove with a pot filler on the other wall create the perfect place to craft all of those great meals for your family and friends... or just for yourself! The adjoining dining area and seating area allow for lots of ways to use the space. From there, you can access the outside via sliding doors or the side door to the deck. Then it's just steps down to your own slip where you can dock your boat. Fishing? Boating out on the Assawoman Bay? Or just relaxing on your deck to enjoy your home? So many choices. And yes, you can see the sunset from the house. A photo has been added that was taken from the back steps. Back inside, there are two bedrooms on the first floor, one with an ensuite bathroom with vaulted ceiling and walk-in shower, the other has easy access to the full hall bathroom that also accommodates the laundry. Back to the great room and up the stairs to discover that loft! It's tucked away beside the stone wall of the fireplace and is such a cozy hideaway where you can work, read a book, or just relax. There are two more bedrooms upstairs, one at the front of the house with charming built-ins. That bedroom has easy access to the hall bathroom with tub shower. The other bedroom? That's the one that feels like you're in a mountain hideaway. We've called it the primary, because of the location and the size, plus it has an ensuite bathroom (again, with a vaulted ceiling), a spacious walk-in shower, and a double sink granite-topped vanity. This house offers so much that all your friends and family will want to visit... and stay! You might want to give your least favorite a sofa bed sleeper so they'll go home at some point. :-) This home can be your year-round residence or the perfect beach home. The address is Selbyville, but it's right next to Fenwick Island, so you have easy access to the ocean, shopping, great restaurants, state parks, and as much or as little of the night life and boardwalks as you want. Schedule your tour today! Note: The Seller has conducted a Home Inspection for your added comfort in purchasing the property. That also means potential savings for the Buyer. And.... Seller will credit the Buyer an additional $5,000 with an acceptable offer submitted by November 5, 2024.

The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
