Property Description
Spectacular Private Waterfront Estate on Love Creek! A rare opportunity to own a stunning custom-built waterfront retreat nestled on 6.69 acres along tranquil Love Creek, with direct access to Rehoboth Bay. This exquisite property offers 6,840 square feet of heated living space (8,509 total) and includes a boat slip, making it a perfect sanctuary for nature lovers and water enthusiasts alike. A long, private drive with a circular turnaround leads to the welcoming front staircase and charming covered porch. Inside, the foyer opens to both the main and ground levels. The heart of the home is the breathtaking two-story great room, featuring a dramatic stone fireplace, a wall of windows, and sliding glass doors showcasing panoramic water views. Step onto the expansive, maintenance-free deck and enjoy gentle bay breezes while watching bald eagles soar overhead. The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream, complete with a large island, quartz countertops, walk-in pantry, high-end stainless steel appliances, tile backsplash, and rich hardwood floors. It flows seamlessly into a bright dining area surrounded by three walls of windows overlooking the water. The main level also includes a home office with custom built-ins, a stylish powder room, and a luxurious owner’s suite. The primary bedroom features tray ceilings, elegant moldings, wainscoting, serene water views, and dual walk-in closets—one with a built-in makeup vanity, desk, and stackable washer/dryer. The spa-like owner’s bath boasts a clawfoot soaking tub, oversized tile shower, and separate vanities. The lower level is designed for entertainment and comfort, with a guest bedroom, full bath, wet bar (with pass-through to the screened porch), a spacious family room, media room, and two mudrooms—one equipped with a dog wash station. Walk out to a large screened porch that leads to a resort-style outdoor oasis, complete with a pool, firepit, outdoor kitchen, mistaway system, and a Marmiro marble patio. Upstairs, the third level features three additional en-suite bedrooms, a loft, and a bonus room with sweeping views. One of the bedrooms offers private deck access—the perfect perch for watching Rehoboth Beach fireworks. A spacious three-car garage includes a bonus room above with a private staircase, ideal for storage or future living space. Featuring wide plank hardwood floors, solar panels (owned), custom tile and millwork throughout, elevator shaft for future elevator to all three levels, energy efficient dual fuel hvac, and Rennai hot water on demand.
