Property Description

LOCATION, OPPORTUNITY & POTENTIAL! Just approximately 7 blocks from the Atlantic Ocean and downtown Rehoboth Beach, this Jefferson Street property offers a rare combination of location, C-1 zoning, and possibilities for the future! Situated just outside Rehoboth Beach city limits, this property presents an exciting opportunity for buyers looking for a beach getaway, potential rental investment, future custom home site, or possible commercial use.
The existing home is a well-maintained, single-level ranch built in 1985, offering 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. With central air conditioning, baseboard heating, and a functional floor plan, the home provides the opportunity to enjoy the property right away while considering improvements or longer-term plans.
Outdoor features include a three-season porch, a covered side porch, and a small deck that's ideal for grilling. Mature trees add to the setting, while a storage shed and off-street parking for two vehicles provide additional convenience.
USE IT TODAY, PLAN FOR TOMORROW! Enjoy the existing home as a beach retreat, explore its potential as a rental property, consider expanding the current residence, or investigate the possibility of removing the home to build a larger coastal residence. The property's location and zoning offer a variety of possibilities, subject to applicable regulations and approvals.
One of the property's most significant advantages is its location outside the Rehoboth Beach city limits, while remaining remarkably close to the beach, downtown restaurants, shopping, and entertainment. The property falls under Sussex County jurisdiction for zoning and land-use matters, rather than the City of Rehoboth Beach, which may provide different options for construction, tree management, rentals, and potential pool installation.
The C-1 zoning adds another dimension of opportunity, particularly for buyers exploring potential office or business uses. Visibility from Route 1 may offer an additional advantage for certain commercial applications.
Properties offering this combination of proximity to downtown Rehoboth Beach, potential flexibility of use, and an existing home that can be enjoyed while making future plans are increasingly difficult to find.
Whether you're looking for a beach property to enjoy today, an investment for tomorrow, or a location to bring a larger vision to life, this Jefferson Street property deserves your attention!
