Description
GOOD THINGS REALLY DO COME IN SMALL PACKAGES!  From the outside, it is an adorable story-book cottage that’s picture perfect. But, as quaint and charming as that is, it is not until you step inside that  the true magic begins! You won’t want to miss this one-of-a-kind home in the heart of historic Lewes. Featuring hardwood flooring throughout, you enter into a spacious living room with original built-ins and brick fireplace, leading to a perfectly nestled dining area, opening to a modern kitchen that leads to a darling half bath and laundry. Step inside the front door and you will find the winding staircase that lifts you to a surprisingly large and inviting 2nd floor loft area for relaxation and entertainment and bedroom (seemingly nestled in the trees) complete with a well designed en suite bath.  The unexpected abundance continues as you exit the kitchen into the private, beautifully landscaped and fully fenced backyard. It is  the perfect place to relax and entertain with plenty of room for a pool or to expand the footprint of the home.  The current owner has made this her primary home for 17 years but it would also be a solid rental investment or weekend getaway from any nearby city. If you did ever want to leave the tranquil beauty and comfort of this home, you can walk to all of Lewes’s eatery’s, shops and entertainment or bike to the Beach, Cape Henlopen State Park and Rehoboth.

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.
