Welcome home to 26742 Shortly Rd, an unbelievable property with so much to offer the most discerning of buyers! Situated on over 7 acres with a private drive leading to the 2500sf residence, where beautiful landscaping abounds. As you approach the main home you will notice the stunning covered, wrap around porch, the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee or relax in the evenings. At the front door you are greeted with hardwood floors in the foyer that continue through the formal dining room to your left and into the spacious great room to your right. You will appreciate the outstanding craftsmanship from the arched entries, to the coffered ceiling, and vaulted ceiling with bead board to name a few. No detail has been overlooked in this custom builder's personal residence. The large family room, just one of several living spaces this home provides, features a Harman wood stove, stone surround and the perfect built-ins on each side. Off of the great room is the gourmet kitchen with upgraded cabinetry, granite counters, and stainless appliances. This space is ideal for entertaining. The kitchen alone offers plenty of seating at the island as well as an adorable breakfast nook. There are sliders that open to the rear patio and to the sun room which features panoramic views of the garden and grounds. Large double doors from the sun room lead to the wrap around front porch. On the opposite side of the home you will find three bedrooms. The owner's suite offers his and her closets, en suite bath with soaking tub, double vanity with seating area, and custom tiled shower. The two additional bedrooms are spacious, filled with natural light, and close by the hall bath. There are steps that lead to the attic with approx 700sf of unfinished space currently used for storage. Heading towards the attached 2 car garage there is a powder room and utility room with sink area. Outside the home you will find ample parking, a patio that stretches across the rear with an outdoor shower and a great area to grill and entertain outdoors. There is even a pond on the property. The pole building is not your average pole building, with a total of 3000sf that has been upgraded in every aspect and is truly a multifunctional space. Current uses include a home office with its own entrance, guest quarters with 1800sf of living area, and a generously sized garage that is sure to meet all of your needs. This property showcases the peaceful living that Sussex County offers, yet is only 2 miles west of 113, and a short drive to DE & MD Beaches. The photos and description will never do this property justice as it is truly a must see! Schedule your private tour today so you don't miss this rare opportunity to own such a unique property.
