Find your latitude and feel your attitude immediately shift once arriving at this stunning waterfront Broadkill Beach retreat showcasing nature at its finest. An exquisite renovation was completed in 2014. From its shining cupola to its smallest custom detail, this home seamlessly blends contemporary comfort with Broadkill's natural beauty. An embracing open floorplan exudes warmth with its reclaimed barnboard accent walls and oversized sliding doors with incredible views of the bay and natural surroundings. The living area features a beautifully tiled gas fireplace with a cozy yet spacious seating area -- also a perfect vantage point to view a 300 gallon salt water fish tank. The kitchen area has a huge island for seating and/or serving large gatherings, along with a built-in wine cooler and microwave. A Viking gourmet 6 burner gas stove will satisfy gourmet needs along with an oversized kitchen sink with waterviews and coordinates overhead reminding you of your beautiful location. The dining area sits at the heart of this open space with a huge dining table providing plenty of seating for family and friends. The living/dining area opens to a large partial wrap around deck for yet another vantage point to take in all of the surrounding beauty. The deck has stairs that lead to an outdoor area with a fire pit area and access to the private walkway to the sandy beach and the Delaware Bay. Returning inside, the main level also features a convenient en suite bedroom with bath as well as a powder room with a wall photo mural of Broadkill's earlier days. Moving to the upper level, there are 3 additional bedrooms and 2 baths along with a "flex" space. First, there is the primary bedroom. Here, pause to take in the peaceful, seamless blend of comfort and nature -- enjoy bay views from the private waterfront balcony, then notice the room's natural fiber wall covering, oversized tiled walk-in shower, dual vanities and walk in closets. The second upper level bedroom also features its own waterfront balcony to savor the view. The upper second and third bedrooms share a full bath with bathtub. The third bedroom is a children's delight with 2 sets of built-in bunk beds. The upper level "flex" area is currently used as a home office featuring a huge mural nautical chart of the bay and a telescope to further observe your surroundings both day and night. This area could also be used as a den or additional gathering space. The upper level also provides a centrally located laundry area. Finally, the home features an oversized 2 bay garage with a workshop area, and a third garage door at the rear of the house for easy access to transport all of your beach toys -- kayaks, fishing items and any other beach gear. Broadkill Beach backs to the Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge with its 10,000 acres of amazing wildlife, birding and flora. It's just 10 minutes to historic Milton's shopping and dining, and just 15 minutes to Lewes and all of its activities. Don't hesitate - come to this incredible home to embrace the moment. NOTE: This home is offered fully furnished, down to the dishwear. Various personal items/artwork will be excluded -- it is offered turnkey and ready for immediate enjoyment, as well as a tremendous rental income opportunity. Note: fishtank can be removed -- seller will offering a credit or will have it removed before settlement.
