Some homes are just houses. This one is a lifestyle!
Tucked inside White House Beach, one of the most storied waterfront communities on the Indian River Bay, this property delivers the kind of bayfront living that most people only dream about. The land beneath this community has been owned by the same family for 16 generations. That is not a marketing line. That is history, continuity, and a community that takes care of itself.
Step onto the expansive deck and you will understand immediately why the owners never wanted to leave. The bay stretches out in front of you, wide and glittering, and beyond the bulkhead is a sandy shoreline where these owners spent their summers tying floaties and drifting with the waves. On the Fourth of July, this deck becomes the best seat in the county for fireworks. Bring your chairs and your people. The main and side decks were installed in 2018 with premium grade lumber, and an outdoor shower is right there waiting after a day on the water.
The community amenities are exceptional: a private sandy beach with a gazebo and swings, boat ramps, a marina with some of the deepest slips in the area, and tennis courts. No pool needed when you have all of this.
Inside, the home is bright, open, and completely oriented toward the water. Oak hardwood floors run throughout the main living areas. The open floor plan connects the living room, dining area, and kitchen in one seamless, sun-filled space. Running the full length of the living and dining rooms is a wall of windows stretching from one side of the home to the other, with a built-in window seat beneath them. It is the kind of feature that stops you in your tracks the moment you walk in. Sit there with your morning coffee and watch the bay change color. Every single day looks different, and every single day is beautiful.
The owner's suite features an ensuite bathroom with dual vanities and a linen closet. The additional bedrooms are fresh, clean, and full of coastal charm. And then there is the bunk room: a genuinely fun space complete with a built-in climbing wall and under-bed storage that will make every kid (and more than a few adults) immediately claim it as their own.
The laundry room is a standout: generously sized, loaded with storage, and finished with a countertop for folding. A dedicated storage room off the laundry adds even more organization space. The attic, accessible via a pull-down ladder, provides additional bulk storage. The garage accommodates smaller vehicles, golf carts, and all the beach and boat gear a waterfront life requires, plus a proper workshop area with a workbench and pegboard for the handy buyer.
The big-ticket items are already done. Heating and cooling were replaced in 2020. The roof is a fully warranted GAF system installed in 2020, including Deck Armor underlayment, Timberline HighDef shingles, Roofstart weather seal, WeatherWatch (to protect against weather-driven rain), algae resistant StainGuard, Seal-A-Ridge ridge cap, and Cobra Snow Country ridge vent system. That is a roof built to last!
All of this, and you are just minutes from groceries, restaurants, shopping, gas, and medical services. Rehoboth Beach and Lewes are approximately 30 minutes away when the ocean calls.
White House Beach is not just a community. It is a way of life, and this home is your front-row seat to all of it.
