Property Description

Motivated Seller - Country retreat ideal for entertaining, relaxing and hobbying. This inviting 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home is situated on a beautiful 2.08-acre lot just outside the town of Frederica, Delaware. Offering a comfortable blend of updates, flexible living space, and exceptional outdoor amenities, this property provides plenty of room to enjoy the best of country living. The main level features three bedrooms and a full bathroom, along with fresh paint throughout and durable LVP flooring. The upgraded kitchen is both stylish and functional, featuring polyacrylic-coated maple countertops, refinished cabinetry, ample cabinet storage with specialty hardware, stainless steel appliances, and a tile backsplash. The fully finished walkout basement expands the living and storage possibilities, offering a bonus room with windows, a full bathroom, laundry area, and abundant storage space, along with convenient walkout access to the backyard. Step outside and discover a backyard designed for relaxation and entertaining. The spacious deck includes a screened-in lounging area, providing a comfortable place to enjoy the outdoors. The extra deep backyard pool offers a refreshing retreat during the warmer months, while the patio with dedicated wood burning “Smoke Shack” is perfect for smoking meats and fish and creating memorable gatherings with family and friends. There is a large, fenced dog run in the front of the home offering plenty of space for four-legged companions, and near the garden is a chicken coop with a current permit. Behind the shed, a cleared area provides an ideal space for go-karts, dirt bikes, or other outdoor recreation. With energy-saving features, low utility costs, and plenty of room to enjoy the outdoors, this property offers a unique combination of practicality, privacy, and lifestyle appeal. Enjoy energy-efficient living with the added benefit of significantly reduced utility costs! This property features owned solar panels, which will be paid off at settlement, providing the new owner with the full benefit of the system. The solar system stores substantial energy, making electric costs almost nonexistent. The home also features a new roof installed in 2023 at the time the solar panels were added. A private well and septic system further reduce monthly expenses, leaving oil for the heating system as the primary utility cost. The Central Air conditioning system is approximately three years old and has seven years remaining on its warranty. Garden enthusiasts will appreciate the manicured fruit and vegetable garden, while a distinctive row of Osage orange trees lines the rear property boundary, adding character and natural privacy. With more than two acres to enjoy, there is ample room for outdoor recreation, gardening, entertaining, and simply relaxing in your own private setting—all while being conveniently located just outside Frederica.
