Description

Introducing 24697 Peterkins Road, a beautifully upgraded private retreat just east of Georgetown, where peaceful country living meets the recreational lifestyle Delaware’s coastal region is known for. Set on a sprawling 1.29-acre corner homesite with no HOA, this reimagined 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath Colonial offers space to relax, entertain, spread out, and enjoy easy access to nearby beaches, bays, boating, dining, and outdoor adventure. Over the past five years, the home has undergone a remarkable transformation, offering the look, feel, and function of a nearly new home. From the moment you arrive, the improvements are evident, from the newer roof and asphalt driveway to refreshed landscaping and a welcoming new front entry. Step inside to discover a home that has been carefully redesigned to enhance both everyday living and effortless entertaining. At the heart of the home, the gourmet kitchen is a true standout, showcasing custom 42” espresso cabinetry, granite countertops, and a butcher block-topped expansive center island with breakfast bar seating. Luxury vinyl plank flooring flows seamlessly throughout the main living areas, tying the space together with warmth and durability. Whether hosting gatherings in the adjacent dining room or enjoying casual meals at the island after a day at the beach, this space was designed to bring people together. The main level has been thoughtfully reconfigured to include a spacious family room addition, anchored by a gas fireplace and offering direct access to the outdoor living areas. A welcoming mudroom, formal living room, and stylish powder bath complete the main living space. The addition of a private main-level primary suite creates a true retreat, featuring a spa-inspired ensuite with a glass-enclosed shower, soaking tub, and beautifully coordinated finishes. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms and two full baths provide comfort and convenience, including another well-appointed primary-style bath with a soaking tub, walk-in shower, and elegant contrasts in finishes. A nearby laundry area adds to the home’s functional layout. Step outside and discover an outdoor experience designed for enjoyment. The in-ground pool is surrounded by an expansive concrete patio and deck, creating multiple areas for lounging, dining, and entertaining. A covered lounge space and outdoor grill station elevate the setting, making it ideal for summer cookouts, pool days, weekend guests, or quiet evenings under the stars. With over an acre of land, no HOA restrictions, and a setting close to Delaware’s scenic waterways, the property offers room to enjoy the lifestyle buyers come to the beach area for — without sacrificing privacy or space. Behind the scenes, significant investments add peace of mind, including three HVAC systems, structural enhancements, a well inspection with updated piping, and a recent septic inspection and service. The entire interior has also been freshly painted as of March 2026, offering a crisp, move-in ready presentation. Perfectly positioned just minutes from Lewes and Rehoboth Beach, and close to Delaware’s beaches, bays, parks, boat ramps, restaurants, shopping, and coastal attractions, this home offers the best of both worlds: easy access to everything the Delaware beaches have to offer, with the privacy, space, and freedom of no HOA living. 24697 Peterkins Road is more than a home — it’s a thoughtfully upgraded coastal-area retreat where comfort, style, recreation, and space come together beautifully.
