Property Description
Perfectly positioned along the bay in the gated community of South Shore, this waterfront residence captures panoramic views of the Indian River Bay, surrounding wetlands, and the iconic Indian River Inlet Bridge from nearly every room. Offering an exceptional opportunity to enjoy one of North Bethany's most spectacular waterfront settings, with the beach just a short walk or bike ride away, this spacious home features an open floor plan designed to embrace the ever-changing water views. The main living level offers a generous kitchen with abundant cabinetry, granite countertops, a breakfast bar, and an inviting window-lined sitting area that's the perfect spot to enjoy morning coffee while taking in the view. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining and living areas, where ceramic tile flooring provides easy coastal living. Two sets of newer 8-foot-tall, three-panel sliding glass doors maximize the breathtaking waterfront vistas while opening to an expansive bayfront deck and screened porch, creating an ideal setting for entertaining or simply relaxing. This level also includes two guest bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a powder room. The upper level is highlighted by a spacious bayfront primary suite featuring breathtaking water views, access to a large sun deck, and an ensuite bathroom with dual sinks, a jetted soaking tub, and a tiled walk-in shower. Two additional guest bedrooms and another full bathroom complete this floor. The ground level offers covered parking, generous storage for kayaks, jet skis, bicycles, and all your beach gear, plus an outdoor shower for rinsing off after a day on the water. Thoughtfully maintained, the home has been enhanced with a new roof and HVAC systems (2022), new hot water heaters (2024), durable composite front and rear decking, updated landscaping, heating and air conditioning added to the ground level, and extensive replacement of exterior trim with low-maintenance Azek for lasting durability. South Shore is one of North Bethany's most desirable gated waterfront communities, offering a deep-water marina with direct access to the Indian River Inlet, a swimming pool, and tennis courts. Ideally situated near the entrance to the community, this home offers the convenience of an easy walk or bike ride to Delaware Seashore State Park's pristine beach without crossing Route One, plus a nearby launch for kayaks and paddleboards, making it effortless to enjoy both the bay and the beach. This remarkable property offers an irreplaceable location with some of the area's most captivating bay views.
