Welcome to this beautifully furnished 5-bedroom, 4-bath coastal retreat in the highly desirable Bay Forest community, offering over 3,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space. Showcasing coastal style architecture with elegant, high-end finishes throughout, this home greets you with a light-filled foyer that flows seamlessly into a dramatic two-story great room featuring a coffered ceiling, a wall of windows, and clerestory windows that bathe the space in natural light. A loft above overlooks the living area, enhancing the home’s open and airy feel. The open-concept floor plan connects the great room to a stunning gourmet kitchen, complete with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a cooktop with hood fan, wall oven, built-in microwave, walk-in pantry, and abundant cabinetry accented by a specialty backsplash. A large island with double sinks, pendant lighting, and counter seating for four makes entertaining effortless. Adjacent to the kitchen, the dining room offers direct access to the covered rear porch—perfect for indoor-outdoor living. The main-level owner’s suite is a serene escape, highlighted by a tray ceiling, plush carpeting, and a spacious walk-in closet. The luxurious ensuite bath features double vanities, a window for natural light, a large tiled step-in shower with bench and glass door, and a private water closet. A main-level guest room with full bath, along with a laundry room with utility sink and a functional mud room, complete the first floor. Upstairs, a mezzanine overlooks the great room and leads to three additional bedrooms, two full baths, and a versatile bonus room with glass pocket doors—ideal for a media room, office, or play space. Outside, the landscaped front yard includes a welcoming covered porch and walkway leading to a convenient outdoor shower. The backyard is designed for gathering and relaxation, featuring an expansive hardscaped patio with a stone-encased firepit, sitting wall, and grill enclosure. Residents of Bay Forest enjoy an amenity-rich lifestyle with a beautiful clubhouse offering entertaining areas, library, dining room, and fitness center. Rentals are permitted with a 7-night minimum, making this a great investment for second homeowner. Outdoor amenities include a resort-style pool with lap lanes and kiddie pool, putting green, playground, tennis, bocce and horseshoe courts, kayak launch marina, and beach shuttle service. Ideally located just minutes from downtown Ocean View and the pristine shores of Bethany Beach, you’ll enjoy easy access to coastal dining, shopping, entertainment, miles of shoreline, boating, and scenic walking trails.
