Agent Description

Imagine the ultimate coastal restoration project in Lewes, Delaware: a sprawling, six-bedroom colonial canvas on a prime 0.44-acre lot, waiting for a talented visionary or investor to breathe new life into its impressive bones. Nestled in the highly coveted neighborhood of Edgewater Estates near the scenic waters of Red Mill Pond, 30849 Buttonwood Drive stands as a monumental opportunity in the award-winning Cape Henlopen School District.

With an expansive 2,838 finished square feet of living space, this home is rough around the edges and sold strictly in as-is condition, but it is primed for a stunning transformation that will yield exceptional long-term upside. Step past the classic facade and design a masterpiece: the main floor features a highly functional traditional layout wit

h a formal dining room, country kitchen, light-filled breakfast nook, first-floor laundry room, and a highly desirable main-level primary bedroom suite. Upstairs, discover additional generously sized bedrooms, a dedicated craft room/photo lab space, and a massive walk-in attic offering superb storage or further customization potential.

While the property requires a complete interior cosmetic overhaul, a new rear deck, and exterior repainting, the most expensive mechanical heavy-lifting is already done, anchored by two high-efficiency Lennox HVAC heat pump zones installed in 2020 and 2021.

Outside, the premium lot accommodates an attached side-entry two-car garage, mature trees, and a spacious backyard ready for custom landscaping. Located just minutes from historic downtown Lewes, pristine Cape Henlopen State Park beaches, tax-free retail shopping, and popular local boating access, this fixer-upper is the perfect entry point to the Delaware coastal market for DIY homeowners and experienced flippers alike.

Bring your contractor, unlock the immense equity hidden within this grand structure, and draft the next chapter of this coastal Lewes estate! Please note that active, working security cameras are present on-site.
