Property Description
English countryside charm meets coastal cottage living in this exceptional home tucked within the desirable Schoolvue community of Rehoboth Beach. Set on an expansive 125' x 100' lot, the property offers privacy and serenity surrounded by mature trees and lush landscaping. A slate walkway leads to the inviting entrance of this classic shaker-style cottage, where a welcoming front porch sets the tone for seaside living. Inside, timeless details abound. Crisp white pine paneling and wide-plank oak flooring flow throughout, while carefully curated lighting adds warmth and character to each space. The kitchen is a chef's dream, designed with both form and function in mind, featuring abundant storage, a 6-burner Thermador gas cooktop, dual ovens, and a Sub-Zero refrigerator. The cozy family room is anchored by a gas fireplace, beamed ceilings, and sun-filled windows that frame the natural beauty outside.
