About this House

Discover the tranquility and beauty of Moore’s Lake at 89 S Shore Drive in Dover, Delaware—where over 120 feet of direct lake frontage invites you to fully embrace waterfront living. This move-in-ready 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home has been thoughtfully transformed in 2022 and 2023, blending modern updates with timeless charm. The exterior immediately impresses with a newly replaced roof accented by two charming dormer windows topped with tin roofing, along with a brand-new fence that enhances the property’s appeal. A natural retaining wall along the lake bank and an additional concrete patio add both function and visual interest to the outdoor space. Inside, new flooring throughout creates a fresh, cohesive feel. The beautifully updated kitchen features refaced Amish cabinetry and a stunning custom Amish-made two-tier island with a quartz countertop, gas cooktop, soft-close drawers, abundant storage, and bar seating—perfect for entertaining. The laundry room and half bath were strategically relocated to create a welcoming foyer alcove and an elegant dining area highlighted by graceful arched details. The private owner’s suite is conveniently located on the main level and offers a walk-in closet and a renovated ensuite bath complete with a quartz double vanity, built-in cabinetry, and a luxurious jetted walk-in tiled shower. French doors lead to the deck and patio, connected by a wraparound walkway—an ideal spot to relax and enjoy breathtaking sunsets over the lake. The expansive great room features a striking brick gas fireplace, soaring cathedral ceilings, large polygon picture windows that flood the space with natural light, and a loft area overlooking the main living space. The former second-floor storage attic has been fully renovated into a climate-controlled office, providing the perfect dedicated workspace with comfort and style. The lower level offers even more living space, including a spacious family room with a stone wood-burning fireplace flanked by two sliding glass doors showcasing serene lake views. This level also includes a full bathroom, two lakeside bedrooms, and a third bedroom tucked down the hall—ideal for guests or flexible living arrangements. Located in the desirable Moore’s Lake community, this home offers both privacy and convenience with easy access to Route 13 and Route 1. Enjoy quick trips to Delaware Beaches, Wilmington, Philadelphia, Washington DC, Baltimore, New Jersey, and New York.
