Here's an opportunity to own what could be one of the larger parcels east of Route 1 in Lewes. While currently offered as two properties, one a 4 bedroom 3 bath house centered on three building lots totaling over 16,000 square feet and the other a 14,000 square foot building lot directly behind the house The owners are currently working with the city to resolve ownership of an unused alley that divides the two parcels. If resolved, this will yield a single parcel of nearly .70 acres with endless possibilities for further expansion of the house and outdoor living space, The brick home has a traditional floor plan, where a central staircase divides the living space at the front of the house with a large eat-in kitchen at the rear. Hardwood and LVP flooring run throughout the first and second floors. The first floor has a large primary bedroom with private bath, a guest bedroom, a full bath in the hall and a paneled den with built-in cabinetry and shelving. Upstairs you will find two generously sized bedrooms, each which built-in cabinets and drawers, The bedrooms share a sizable bathroom which is across the hall from an ample storage closet. Additionally, there is a full unfinished basement with a sewing room, work bench and outside access. Located less than a mile from downtown, the listing is a rare chance to own a sizable piece of land with so much potential within the city limits of Lewes.
