About this home
Charming Dutch Colonial with Modern Updates and Income Potential
This beautifully renovated three-bedroom Dutch Colonial offers a unique combination of classic architectural character and contemporary retro-modern style. Situated on a mature, fully fenced lot with attractive landscaping, the property blends timeless charm with thoughtful updates and modern conveniences.
One of the home’s most distinctive features is the detached, fully finished guest space, which currently operates as a successful Airbnb. This private unit offers excellent flexibility for additional income, visiting guests, a home office, or a creative studio. The space includes a kitchen, full bathroom, and balcony, making it well suited for short-term stays. Its convenient location, approximately 10 minutes from the DE Turf Sports Complex, makes it appealing to visitors attending local sporting events and has also served as housing for the hospital interns and temporary nursing for local hospitals.
The garage offers a separate entrance, an additional set of laundry machines, and a 220-volt electrical setup suitable for an EV charger.
Inside the main residence, the updated layout features clean lines, stylish retro-inspired details, and a welcoming flow between living spaces. The kitchen stands out with modern cabinetry, high-end appliances, attractive finishes, and plenty of room for meal preparation and entertaining. Highlights include Dekton Ultra Compact countertops, a professional-style gas cooktop with a sleek range hood, and ample storage. There is also space for a large walk-in pantry with metal shelving and a dedicated coffee bar.
The kitchen island serves as a central gathering point, offering additional cabinetry and a wall-mounted biofuel fireplace, complemented by carefully selected woodwork details.
Adjacent to the kitchen, a bright and versatile flex room provides additional possibilities. Currently used as a home office, it could also function as a sleeping area or private office suite, with the benefit of its own entrance.
Upstairs, the spacious primary suite offers a comfortable retreat, featuring an exceptionally large walk-in closet with custom shelving and island of drawers and a separate sitting room. The additional space could easily accommodate a reading area, secondary workspace, or quiet place to unwind. The home's original layout also provides the option of restoring a more traditional, separated floor plan to suit individual preferences.
Outside, the established landscaping and mature hardwood trees create a peaceful setting, providing shade during the warmer months and beautiful fall colors. The fenced backyard offers privacy and room for gardening, outdoor dining, or entertaining. Two storage sheds provide additional space for tools and outdoor equipment, helping keep the garage organized. A propane connection on the patio adds convenience for outdoor grills, fireplaces, or patio heaters.
The location offers easy access to Route 1, downtown Milford, and Bayhealth Sussex Campus. The Delaware beaches, Dover Air Force Base, and several outdoor attractions are also within convenient driving distance. Nearby destinations include Abbott's Mill Nature Center, the Milford Riverwalk, Slaughter Beach, and the DuPont Nature Center.
Downtown Milford continues to grow as a destination, with local restaurants, coffee shops, bakeries, antique stores, galleries, and boutiques adding to its appeal. A recently renovated golf course and nearby entertainment options provide even more opportunities for recreation and socializing.
With its distinctive architecture, modern upgrades, flexible living spaces, and established short-term rental potential, this property offers more than just a place to call home. It presents an opportunity to enjoy a comfortable lifestyle while exploring additional income possibilities.
