Charming custom built home full of character, set on 1 acre with NO HOA and featuring an incredible 30' x 58' pole barn that is a rare find in this area. With 12' walls and extensive second-floor storage, the barn offers exceptional space for equipment, vehicles, hobbies, a workshop, or all your extra storage needs. Next to the barn, a concrete RV pad with 30-amp hookup adds even more versatility. The home itself has seen several important updates, including a roof replaced roughly 5 years ago, an HVAC system only 1.5 years old. The property is serviced by well and septic with a new jet pump and bladder tank. The home offers a warm and inviting feel, highlighted by a spacious 16x20 sunroom with a gas fireplace that is perfect for year-round enjoyment. Conveniently located near downtown Milton with easy access to Lewes, Broadkill Beach, and the Delaware beaches, this property offers the charm of country living with the benefit of being close to everything. A unique opportunity with character, space, and a hard-to-find barn setup that is rarely available in this area. Home is being sold as is.
