Rare Waterfront Opportunity on One of South Bethany’s Widest Canals with Dual Water Views and just . 5 mile to Beach Access. Welcome to this premier waterfront offering in the heart of South Bethany, nestled within the highly sought-after York Beach community. Perfectly positioned on a quiet cul-de-sac along one of the widest canals in the area, this brand-new custom residence captures expansive water views, including rare canal views from both the front and rear of the home—an increasingly hard-to-find setting in today’s market. Executed to a level of quality and craftsmanship that stands apart from typical new construction, this home reflects a true commitment to detail, design, and long-term value. Just a short 0.5-mile stroll to the beach, this home offers a unique combination of wide canal frontage and easy ocean access—a rare pairing that defines coastal living at its finest. Conveniently located just minutes from Indian River Marina at Delaware Seashore State Park, offering direct access to Indian River Bay and the Atlantic Ocean. Spanning approximately 3,700 square feet, the home features an inverted floor plan designed to maximize natural light and water views throughout, along with a versatile layout ideal for multi-generational living. Each level includes its own dedicated living space, complete with a private beverage station and laundry—providing comfort, convenience, and independence for family and guests, all easily accessible via a private elevator servicing every floor. At the heart of the home, the gourmet kitchen is equipped with premium Thermador appliances, a spacious island with built-in microwave, custom cabinetry with panel-ready appliances, quartz countertops, task lighting, and a pantry, along with direct access to the elevated rear deck overlooking the canal. From here, the screened porch transitions seamlessly into the dining area and opens to the great room, creating a natural flow designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining. The great room is enhanced by vaulted ceilings with wood beams, a custom beverage station styled with a glass tile backsplash and white oak shelving, a gas fireplace, and a nearby powder room. Multiple indoor and outdoor living areas—including a second-level lounge with covered deck—provide flexible spaces to gather, relax, and take in the tranquil waterfront setting. This area also offers the option to be easily enclosed with the addition of a small wall, creating a potential fifth bedroom and further enhancing the home’s versatility. Additional highlights include dual garages and energy-efficient construction with enhanced structural features. Tankless water heaters are located in an elevated, conditioned storage area within the garage for protection from humidity, and the home is built to meet current coastal construction standards. This is a rare opportunity to own a custom-built waterfront retreat that combines wide canal frontage, dual water views, proximity to the beach, and a versatile layout—offering a level of quality, flexibility, and lifestyle that is not easily replicated in South Bethany. For added peace of mind, the builder is offering a 2-10 Home Buyers Warranty. A full list of builder specifications is available, including energy-efficient construction materials and enhanced protection from the elements. All furnishings shown are virtually staged.
