Description
Classic Cape Cod character, generous living spaces, and an exceptional five-acre setting come together in this beautifully situated four-bedroom, two-bath home just minutes from historic Milton. Timeless curb appeal begins with three charming dormers, traditional shutters, brick steps leading to the front entry, and mature landscaping that complements the home’s classic architecture. Inside, a comfortable and thoughtfully designed floor plan offers plenty of room to spread out. A large living room provides an inviting central gathering space, while the spacious kitchen and dining room combination creates an easy setting for everyday meals and entertaining. The kitchen offers abundant counter space, generous cabinetry, and breakfast bar seating, with plenty of room for friends and family to gather. Two bedrooms and a full bath are conveniently located on the main level, along with a dedicated laundry room. Upstairs, two additional, large bedrooms and a second full bath complete the home, creating a versatile layout with bedrooms thoughtfully distributed between both levels. A side-entry garage adds everyday convenience while preserving the home’s attractive front elevation. Beyond the home, the property truly distinguishes this offering. Five cleared acres unfold around the residence, surrounded by other generously sized properties in a peaceful rural setting. Sweeping expanses of green lawn, mature trees, colorful crepe myrtles, and established landscaping create a picturesque backdrop with exceptional flexibility for the future. Envision a pool and expansive outdoor entertaining area, gardens and orchards, a hobby farm, space for horses, additional outbuildings, or even the possibility of expanding the existing home. There is ample room to create a property tailored to your vision while still retaining the openness and breathing room that make acreage living so appealing. Any future improvements or uses are subject to applicable zoning and approvals. Remarkably, all of this space and tranquility is approximately five minutes from the heart of Milton, one of Delaware’s most charming historic towns. Downtown offers locally owned shops and eateries, historic architecture, the Milton Theatre, community events, and recreation along the Broadkill River, and Dogfish Head Craft Brewery, a signature local favorite. With Delaware’s coastal communities and beaches also within easy reach, this distinctive property brings together five beautiful acres, classic Cape Cod charm, small-town living, and convenient access to the coast.
