Property Description

In the heart of Bethany Beach, just steps from the ocean, this gorgeous custom home offers the perfect combination of coastal luxury and effortless beach living. Completed in 2022, it was thoughtfully designed from the ground up with exceptional craftsmanship, elevated finishes, and an unmistakable attention to detail. Ideally located just steps from the beach, boardwalk, restaurants, shops, and everything downtown Bethany Beach has to offer, this home offers the rare ability to truly leave the car behind. From the moment you arrive, beautifully manicured landscaping, custom hardscape, and premium factory-finished NuCedar siding create an inviting sense of arrival. The NuCedar offers timeless coastal appeal along with exceptional durability and weather resistance, while plantation shutters throughout add a tailored, coastal finish, allowing for both privacy and natural light. Enter from the second floor, where an open-concept living and kitchen area creates an inviting space for both entertaining and everyday living. White oak hardwood floors run throughout, lending a warm, cohesive feel from room to room. The kitchen is beautifully appointed with quartz countertops, an oversized island, premium appliances, and custom finishes, perfect for a casual morning coffee or a lively gathering with family and friends. This space flows seamlessly into the living room, anchored by a fireplace that creates a warm, comfortable focal point. A spacious screened-in porch overlooks the energy of downtown Bethany, the perfect setting for morning coffee, an afternoon cocktail, or a relaxed evening after a day at the beach. A guest bedroom on this level offers visitors their own private space, while a thoughtfully designed mudroom off the rear entrance and stairway adds everyday convenience and storage for beach living. The top floor offers even more space and privacy, with two additional guest bedrooms, each paired with a beautifully finished bathroom. A separate office or flex space provides versatility for working from home, and a second porch offers another quiet spot to take in the coastal ambiance. The primary suite is a true retreat, complete with a private balcony, outdoor shower, and glimpses of the ocean. On the ground level, the conditioned garage is currently used as a home gym, offering flexibility for an additional living area, recreation space, or whatever suits your lifestyle. Built-in cabinetry provides abundant storage throughout. Thoughtful design extends well beyond the finishes. For added convenience, the elevator connects every level, providing seamless access from the ground floor to the top level and making it easy to transport groceries, unload luggage, and carry beach essentials throughout. Two geothermal HVAC systems deliver efficient, year-round comfort, while a whole-house Culligan water treatment and reverse osmosis system ensure exceptional water quality throughout the home. A seven-zone whole-house audio system allows music to flow effortlessly between interior and exterior spaces, setting the tone for easy entertaining. The backyard is a private oasis, complete with a heated saltwater in-ground pool that delivers a resort-like escape just steps from the beach, a quiet retreat from the energy of downtown Bethany, made for both relaxing and entertaining. Offered furnished, this is a rare opportunity to own a stunning, nearly new custom home in one of Bethany Beach's most coveted locations, just moments from the sand and surrounded by the charm, walkability, and effortless elegance that define coastal living at its finest.
