About this home

Welcome to this spacious contemporary Colonial in the sought-after Covington Chase community of Milton, Delaware, set on a beautifully landscaped .76-acre lot east of Route 1. Surrounded by mature trees and lush greenery, this five-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath home offers generous living spaces, thoughtful amenities, and an ideal location near The Rookery golf course, Broadkill Beach, and all the attractions of the Delaware coast. Inside, the welcoming foyer features a dramatic cathedral ceiling and elegant chandelier, with a library featuring French doors and palladium windows to the left and a den to the right. The heart of the home is the spacious kitchen, featuring tile flooring, stainless steel appliances, abundant cabinetry and counter space, recessed lighting, a center island with counter seating, and a pantry. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the formal dining room, while the adjacent breakfast nook provides a door to the screened porch and connects to the large living room. The living room is designed for gathering, with hardwood floors, abundant natural light, and a striking floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace surround that creates a warm focal point. The screened porch extends the living space outdoors, offering a ceiling fan and peaceful views of the lush backyard. A powder room completes the main level. Upstairs, four bedrooms and two full bathrooms provide comfortable accommodations. The spacious primary suite features a vaulted ceiling, two walk-in closets, and a private ensuite bathroom with a soaking tub, step-in shower, private water closet, and windows overlooking the mature trees. The mostly finished basement adds even more versatility with tiled flooring, recreation/media room, wet bar, fifth bedroom, and full bathroom, along with dedicated storage and utility space. Outside, enjoy the beautifully landscaped front drive and yard, mature trees, fenced backyard, and multiple spaces for relaxing or entertaining, including the screened porch, outdoor deck, and patio. The front yard is served by irrigation from its own private well. Adding to the appeal, the Nature Reserve is located at the end of the road and features a small boat ramp, providing convenient access for fishing and crabbing. It is a wonderful bonus for enjoying the area's natural beauty and coastal lifestyle.
