Welcome to Bay Front at Rehoboth, one of the most beautiful Eastern Shore communities in the Lewes/Rehoboth Beach area. With direct access to Rehoboth Bay, gorgeous wooden bridges and a waterfront gazebo for enjoying the scenery at the private beach or launching your kayak, this community is like no other. The marsh and water views are majestic and peaceful. Nature abounds with wildlife and the bird variety is too numerous to mention. This is no development on a crowded piece of farmland. This neighborhood is unique, special and an escape from the crowds and traffic, and in a locale situated between easily run errands and beach festivities. Homes in this neighborhood have room to breathe, with yards that average a half-acre, and golf carts are welcome. If walking or biking is part of your routine, an easy 3+ mile trek with views and nature is right outside your door. 23280 Horse Island Road is unique within the neighborhood with its' views of the sanctuary bridge and seasonal bay landscape. The stroll across this bridge crosses over a vast marsh filled with herons, osprey and eagles as it bends its' way across the water and lands on picturesque Dewey Beach on the ocean. Situated on a corner lot, private woods and the marsh provide ultimate privacy. This home offers two master suites. The main floor master suite has its' own front porch for rocking and gliding, with a large walk-in closet (currently used as a private office). The upstairs primary suite has an open deck for sunbathing or star gazing and two separate walk-in closets. In addition to the primary there is two guest bedrooms with large walk-in closets, a large hall bathroom with linen closet, laundry and storage. On the main floor, a butler's area, in addition to the roomy pantry adds plenty of storage to an already oversized gourmet kitchen. Another large storage closet and screened in porch with afternoon shade makes living on the main floor the ultimate spot for cooking, dining and relaxing. And did we mention the 9 foot ceilings, crown molding and hardwood floors throughout the entire home? Construction includes framing for a future elevator, if desired. From the garage, enter into the mud room with three closets. Beyond is a flex space (partially finished), suitable for work-out equipment, craft or art area, workbench or whatever your heart desires. Close the door in the mud room and your flex area is your creative or storage Shangri-La. French doors lead to the storage shed and private backyard. Bay Front at Rehoboth has a pool that is situated on the prettiest location in the neighborhood where attendees feel like they are on vacation. The clubhouse contains a gym, two meeting rooms, a lounge area and outdoor space for meeting with friends and neighbors. Lawns are mowed and maintained, and trash removal is also included. This refuge must be seen to be believed, and the location is the perfect spot for a beach retreat or a full-time residence.
