Description

AMERICAN CLASSIC IN THE HEART OF THE HISTORIC CENTER OF LEWES! Welcome to 240 2nd Street, located on a quiet block in the highly sought-after center of Lewes' Historic District. You'll be steps away from all of Lewes' culinary and shopping delights, while tucked away in your own picturesque private oasis. It starts from the moment you arrive at the property. The sweeping front lawn and the beautifully designed landscaping lead you along the front walkway to the sprawling stately presence of this classic American Colonial Revival home. The home has been extensively renovated making it even more captivating and inviting. Its welcoming nature continues as you enter the front door and the center hall. Ahead of you, a graceful balustrade leads to the second level. To the left you see the formal living room with stone fireplace and access to a bright & inviting solarium. A large and perfectly positioned formal dining room is on your right. At the end of the foyer, the hall leads you to a half bath and the chic, beautifully designed great room, second dining space and sleek kitchen. Perfect for entertaining, all these spaces flow seamlessly from one to the other with gleaming hardwood floors throughout. The timeless custom renovation of the kitchen features every modern convenience you could think of – custom cabinetry, stainless steel Wolfe and Subzero appliances and gorgeous quartz countertops. Off the kitchen & dining area is a very large, screened porch for additional dining and entertainment space. The first-floor spaces provide access to the back deck, the private & beautifully landscaped back yard, a soothing koi pond, additional enticing entertaining spaces and an outdoor shower. On the second level, the charm and expertly thought-out renovations continue. At the top of the stairs is a bright and welcoming workspace that would make an incredible home office, art studio or yoga room. The area includes a very large walk-in closet /storage area. The large owner's suite features an alluring and inviting bath and two large custom walk-in closets. The second floor includes two additional spacious bedrooms - one with an en-suite bath - and another full bath. But it doesn’t stop there. Next is a full third floor with a large loft area, a very large 4th bedroom suite with en-suite bath and exterior deck access, as well as an enormous additional room, also with deck access, that could serve as a 5th bedroom, a workspace, entertainment space or playroom - or all of the above! You and your guests can enjoy the sweeping vista and soothing summer breezes from the large third floor deck. The property also boasts a full basement with loads of storage space, a large 2-car garage and plenty of parking in the fenced-in back area and driveway. This idyllic retreat, with classic architecture and modern amenities, so extensively renovated, is truly one-of-a-kind and must be seen in person to by fully appreciated. This is your chance to truly have it all in the very heart of Lewes!
