Classic charm, light-filled spaces, and a peaceful setting come together in this custom home in The Cove on Herring Creek. Situated on an approximately half-acre cul-de-sac parcel shaded by mature trees, this home features beautiful hardwood floors, ceilings of nine feet or higher, abundant windows, and a thoughtfully designed floor plan with the convenience of main-level living. A new roof in 2026 adds to the home’s appeal, while an irrigation system supplied by a dedicated irrigation well helps maintain the landscaped grounds.
A formal dining area flows into spacious living areas, where a centrally positioned gas fireplace creates a welcoming focal point and a natural division between formal and casual gathering spaces. The casual living area opens to a breezy screened porch—an inviting spot for morning coffee, outdoor dining, or unwinding with views of the tree-lined surroundings.
The first-floor primary suite offers vaulted ceilings, dual closets, and an en-suite bath. An adjoining flex room, currently used for sewing, provides additional space for a home office, library, or creative pursuits. Upstairs, two guest suites offer comfortable accommodations and added privacy.
Located in the waterfront community of The Cove on Herring Creek, this home enjoys access to a large community pond, gazebo, and pool, along with low community fees. Convenient to both downtown Lewes and Rehoboth and situated within the Cape Henlopen School District, this charming property brings together space, character, and access to the best of coastal Delaware!
