About this home
Phenomenal VALUE for this HIGH QUALITY, RENOVATED home! Located in the heart of Historic Downtown Lewes, Delaware, just 2.5 blocks to Second Street, this beautifully restored two-unit coastal property offers a rare opportunity for investment, multi-generational living, or a flexible beach retreat. Completely gut-renovated in 2024, both residences were thoughtfully redesigned and rebuilt from the studs with exceptional attention to detail, blending historic charm with modern coastal living.
Adding to the property's unique character and history, don't miss the historic Bride and Groom tree planted in 1812, a rare and meaningful feature that reflects Lewes' rich heritage and timeless appeal.
The property features two separate units, including a 2-bedroom, 1-bath residence and a 2-bedroom, 2-bath residence, sharing a private driveway and fenced backyard — ideal for outdoor entertaining, guests, or rental flexibility. Whether used as a primary residence with guest quarters, vacation home, or income-producing property, the possibilities are exceptional.
This extensive renovation included full interior and exterior rebuilds, all new windows and doors, new electrical service and panels, new plumbing supply and drain lines, new insulation with upgraded soundproofing between floors, new sheetrock, trim, cabinetry, flooring, tile, appliances, and lighting throughout. Structural improvements included foundation work, repaired framing, leveled floors, and new layouts, along with a vaulted ceiling in the second-floor bedroom.
Exterior improvements elevate both curb appeal and durability, including cedar shake siding on the front, LP SmartSide siding on the sides and rear, a new metal roof, gutters, downspouts, cedar fencing, hardscaping, and landscaping. Outdoor living spaces include a new side deck with cedar decking and PVC railings, along with a welcoming front porch featuring cedar decking.
Additional upgrades include new HVAC ductwork, full system cleaning post-construction, new sump pump with battery backup, Roof Maxx treatment on the existing shingle roof, and all necessary building permits and HPARC approvals completed during renovation.
Just 2.5 blocks to Second Street, enjoy easy access to Lewes’ charming shops, restaurants, coffee spots, canalfront dining, and local events, along with nearby Lewes Beach, Cape Henlopen State Park, and the Junction & Breakwater Trail.
This is a rare, turn-key multi-unit opportunity in Historic Lewes — completely renovated, thoughtfully designed, and ideally located in one of Delaware’s most desirable coastal towns, with a piece of Lewes history right in your backyard. Lots of room to add the backyard oasis of your dreams!...
