Property Description

RARE OPPORTUNITY - BACK TO 88-ACRES OF PROTECTED OPEN SPACE, RECENTLY PURCHASED BY SUSSEX COUNTY LAND TRUST! Don't miss this chance to own a beautifully maintained 5-bedroom, 4.5-bath town home with a finished basement in Lewes Waterfront Preserve, a highly sought-after community east of Route 1 that is now completely sold out. Ideally located just one mile from historic downtown Lewes, the canal, boutique shopping, acclaimed restaurants, beaches, and the many attractions that make coastal living so special, 438 River Birch Drive offers the perfect blend of comfort, style, privacy, and convenience. From the moment you arrive, the home makes a beautiful first impression with its coastal-inspired architecture, inviting double front porches, and attractive Hardie® Plank siding. The welcoming foyer opens to a dining area, creating an ideal setting for both everyday living and entertaining. At the heart of the home is the gourmet kitchen, featuring a gas cooktop, built-in wall oven, quartz countertops and stainless-steel appliances. Abundant windows fill the main living spaces with natural light and offer beautiful sunrise and sunset views. Luxury vinyl plank flooring extends throughout the main level, adding both style and durability. The first-floor primary suite provides a peaceful retreat with a large walk-in closet and ensuite bath featuring dual quartz vanities and a tiled walk-in shower with a frameless glass door. A convenient powder room and attached one-car garage complete the main level. Upstairs, a generous loft provides flexible space for a second gathering area, playroom, or home office. Three additional bedrooms and two full bathrooms provide plenty of room for family and guests. The finished basement adds even more versatility, with an additional bedroom and full bath, perfect for visitors, extended family, or a private retreat. Privacy is a standout feature of this exceptional home. Situated on a cul-de-sac, the front of the property overlooks the community green and walking trail, while the rear backs to a wooded area, with a creek and preserved land beyond. Enjoy the peaceful natural setting from your outdoor space, complete with a natural gas hookup for a grill or fire pit. Best of all, the HOA takes care of lawn care and irrigation, providing an easy, low-maintenance lifestyle. Whether you're searching for a primary residence, coastal getaway, or investment property, this townhome offers an exceptional opportunity in one of Lewes' most desirable locations. Enjoy easy access to downtown Lewes, scenic bike trails, waterfront attractions, shopping, dining, and the beaches. This is coastal Delaware living at its best - beautifully appointed, thoughtfully designed, and ideally located.
