39664 seaside avenue

Exceptional Oceanside retreat just steps from the shoreline in a private, life guarded North Bethany community. Thoughtfully expanded by the well-known architectural firm Barnes Vanze in 2009, this spacious home offers large gathering areas, abundant natural light, and effortless indoor-outdoor living. An elevator provides easy access to the top floor, where a stunning great room with soaring ceilings seamlessly connects the gourmet kitchen, dining area, and living space. Ideal for entertaining family and friends, this level opens to both a large, screened porch and an expansive sun deck offering a peek of the ocean. The kitchen is beautifully appointed with crisp white cabinetry, granite countertops, tiled backsplash, stainless steel appliances, a center island, and a butler’s pantry with an additional sink, refrigerator, and cabinetry. Also on the top level is a large office with custom built-ins, a versatile flex room that could be the 6th bedroom, but is currently used as a family room with easy access to this level's full bath. The lower level features a spacious primary suite with an ensuite bath complete with dual vanities and a large glass-enclosed shower. Four additional generously sized bedrooms and three additional full baths provide ample space for family and guests. The ground level offers two conditioned storage areas, an outdoor shower, covered parking with easy access to the elevator's entry and plenty of additional driveway parking. This home was meticulously maintained by one owner, and although never rented, it offers excellent potential as an investment property. Conveying fully furnished and situated on a large parcel in a desirable North Bethany location just minutes from the shops and dining of downtown Bethany Beach, this exceptional property is ready to be enjoyed for generations to come.
