Description

Schooner Landing is a newly developed community of single-family homes, ideally situated in the charming suburb of Selbyville, DE. This serene neighborhood offers convenient access to the popular coastal destinations of Fenwick Island (just 10 minutes away), Bethany Beach (15 minutes), and Ocean City (20 minutes). The home, nearly brand new, comes with transferable warranties for added peace of mind. This thoughtfully designed residence offers both comfort and style, making it an ideal choice for those seeking to start their beach home experience. Upon entering, you'll notice the elegant flooring that flows seamlessly throughout the main living areas, with the exception of the bedrooms. To the right of the entrance, you’ll find two generously sized bedrooms and a full bath with a walk-in shower. The foyer leads into an expansive open-concept living area that integrates the living room, dining room, and kitchen—the heart of the home. A well-appointed laundry room is conveniently tucked to the left off the foyer. The natural gas Rinnai tankless water heater is in a closet in the foyer as well. The kitchen is a chef’s dream, featuring stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and an island with a built-in sink. Top-of-the-line appliances, including a refrigerator, stove, dishwasher, and microwave, are complemented by a water filtration system under the sink that removes caffeine and chlorine from drinking water. Recessed lighting enhances both the kitchen and the adjacent dining area, which is positioned next to sliding glass doors that open to the spacious, fenced-in backyard. The living room, designed with built-in speakers in the walls and ceiling, is further enhanced by a modern ceiling fan. The open layout creates a seamless flow between the living, dining, and kitchen areas, making this space perfect for entertaining. The master suite, located just off the living room, is carpeted for added comfort. The en-suite master bath mirrors the flooring of the main living areas and offers a double vanity and a sliding glass door walk-in shower. The two-car garage is well-equipped with built-in shelving, offering plenty of storage space for seasonal items or long-term storage needs. The expansive backyard, fully fenced for privacy and pet safety, includes a large (14'x28') patio, ideal for outdoor entertaining. Schooner Landing offers additional community amenities such as a swimming pool and designated RV/camper parking (with registration required for vehicle parking). Please note that there is a $750 capital contribution fee due at closing to the HOA. Warranties for the home include: 1-year door-to-door warranty through 2/15/2025 (a touch-up service with the builder is scheduled) 2-year mechanical warranty through 2/15/2026 10-year structural warranty through 2/15/2034 This home offers an excellent opportunity for those seeking a balance of peaceful suburban living with easy access to nearby beach destinations. Additionally, all furniture in the home is available for purchase and negotiable, making it a potential turnkey property. A detailed list of the furniture and the prices paid for each item can be found in the document section.

The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
