Beautiful, EnergyStar 4BD/3BA NV Homes Seaport loaded with options & upgrades. GEOTHERMAL SYSTEM for energy efficiency (See Monthly Energy Costs chart in Documents Section!) A paver walk to an expansive paver stoop welcomes you home. Gleaming wood floors in the Foyer continue into the Great Room, Kitchen & hallway. The Foyer itself opens onto a formal Dining Room (at right) with elegant chair rails, crown molding, and a shelf for collectibles. To the left, two guest Bedrooms share a full Bath. The Great Room has a gas fireplace trimmed with an elegant tile hearth & surround and a beautiful wood mantle plus wall screen TV. Great Room enjoys loads of light via 6 windows with UV-screening (Note: sunlight DID bleach some Great Room flooring. Sellers are open to fixing or crediting repairs to Buyers at settlement.) Great Room flows into large Kitchen, informal Breakfast/Dining area & huge Sun Room, viewing thick woods, a paver patio w/ stone fireplace & sitting wall. Kitchen has upgraded stainless steel appliances, cabinets (with under-cabinet lighting), granite countertops and a backsplash. And the informal Sun Room brings the outdoors in, beautifully. The Master Bedroom includes a tray ceiling, walk-in closet, upgraded Master Bath with a beautiful custom vanity and stall shower. Upstairs, you'll finds a 4th BD, full Bath and a huge Bonus Room for visiting family & guests. Noteworthy upgrades include: 3 Zone Heating & Air Conditioning (1st floor, 2nd floor & Sun Room); a GEOTHERMAL closed loop heat pump serving the 1st floor of the home for comfort & fuel efficiency; a tankless hot water heater with the capacity to serve 4 showers running simultaneously; instant hot water by the Kitchen sink; 3 Sun Tunnels that improve lighting in the house both day and night; an Outdoor Shower running hot & cold water; gutter guard screens; an irrigation system with dedicated well; honeycomb, 2-way blinds in the Sun Room (and window treatments throughout); a direct propane connection for the outdoor grill (which will convey), a ceramic urn water feature for the patio (stored inside during winter). Since installation of the GEOTHERMAL system, average utility costs in this house have run $130 per month for electricity & $29 per month for propane. Don't Forget: Bay Forest was named Platinum Award Winning #1 Best in American Living Community by the National Association of Homebuilders in 2019. Its amenities, all but unmatched in Sussex County at this price point, include: a clubhouse with lounge filled with tables, chairs, a fireplace & cable TV, a grille, a game room and Women's & Men's lockers opening onto 3 pools (including a lazy river). Plus 4 tennis courts & a tennis pavilion, outdoor basketball nets in the parking area, two children's play areas, a putting green, bocce lawns, horseshoe pits & a fire pit. Plus our new Recreation 'Barn,' designed to accommodate a basketball court or 3 pickle ball courts or 450 Bay Forest homeowners & guests for New Year's Eve & similar celebrations. The Rec Barn opens onto a Great Lawn, two new pools with expansive decks for guests, a grille/snack bar, and an exercise facility that includes a dance/yoga studio with resilient flooring. Our Kayak Launch enjoys expansive views of the Indian River Bay & Indian River Bridge and plenty of kayak storage space (for rent). There's a Summer Season Beach Shuttle (5 days/week). Our Shearwater Drive Bridge (crossing Collins Creek to our new Barn, Pools & Exercise Facility) unites Bay Forest's two sections while offering extraordinary views of the salt marsh it crosses and Indian River Bay beyond. There are 15+ miles of sidewalks. 5 Miles to Bethany Beach. Don't forget the 2 YEAR HOME WARRANTY FOR ADDED PEACE OF MIND: A $1,000 VALUE! There's no place like Bay Forest... When you own here, you'll see why!
