Description

Discover your dream home nestled between the Delaware Bay and the breathtaking Prime Hook National Wildlife Refuge. This enchanting paradise boasts an expansive dock and a charming boathouse, perfect for all of your boating adventures. Meticulously custom designed, award-winning landscaping creates an unparalleled wildlife utopia, offering a truly unique and captivating environment . Unwind by the fire pit, surrounded by large quarry boulders serving as seating carved out of nature. From this cozy vantage point, you will surely embrace the beauty and tranquility this idyllic sanctuary delivers . Upon entering , you'll be struck by the abundance of natural light and air that floods the space, creating a serene and peaceful atmosphere from the moment you step inside....all your day's troubles will simply disappear. Every room in the home offers stunning views of the water and refuge. Four incredible out door porches- each uniquely designed - envelope and invite you to sit awhile and savor the beautiful sounds of nature. The two-story great room showcases the built- in bookcases and a gas fireplace seamlessly flowing into the kitchen and dining area. Your galley kitchen features a commercial Viking range grotto, ideal for entertaining and crafting culinary delights, and includes a spacious granite island that offers ample seating, creating a blend of comfort and functionality. French doors lead to the third floor primary suite, featuring a stunning and spacious bathroom complete with a luxurious soaking tub and oversized walk-in shower. Along with two walk-in closets, a "morning kitchen" creates a convenient space for brewing your morning coffee or refreshing beverage before relaxing on your upper deck to take in an ever-changing vista....views that will literally take your breath away. You'll find plenty of storage and dedicated space to cater to all your boating, birding, fishing or outdoor needs, with a generous area accommodating parking for two vehicles. A versatile room can be transformed into a crafting room or a workshop, offering up endless possibilities for your creative needs. I can go on and on about this exceptional property in the charming "Beach Plum" fishing town of beautiful Broadkill Beach, but mere words don't do it justice. Broadkill beach is set apart as a beach town. With almost zero traffic, which is not standard in other beach towns, it's almost like being on a private beach especially on the south end. No public beach paths are marked with signage, so beach access is only known to the residents in each block. You will find yourself on the beach as the only footprints you will see will be the ones you're making. To truly appreciate its splendor, you'll want to experience it for yourself. Most furniture conveys with property. Easy to show.

The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
