Property Description
Downtown Lewes Gem – Live, Work & Thrive in the Heart of the Historic District. A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity awaits on iconic Second Street in downtown Lewes—Delaware's most charming coastal town. This meticulously rebuilt mixed-use property, with over 3,600 sq. ft. of finished space, blends 100 years of history with modern convenience, offering the perfect balance of lifestyle, location, and investment potential. Located in the heart of the commercial district, this beautifully renovated property features a spacious residential home above a premium first-floor office space—ideal for entrepreneurs, professionals working from home, or investors looking to maximize rental potential. Live upstairs, work or lease downstairs, or enjoy the entire building for yourself. With over 2,000 sq. ft. of finished living space across the second and third floors, the residence includes 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, gourmet kitchen with quartz countertops, sunroom, exposed brick walls, elevated deck, and a third-floor balcony offering sweeping views of historic Lewes. Downstairs, the 1,500 sq. ft. office space is move-in ready and perfectly positioned for visibility and access on one of Lewes' most desirable streets. Everything has been thoughtfully rebuilt from the studs up—new roof, windows, electric, plumbing, HVAC, and owned solar panels—all while preserving the timeless charm of this classic home. The fenced front courtyard overlooks bustling Second Street, putting you steps away from fine dining, boutiques, the canal, and Lewes Beach. A private concrete parking lot, detached brick garage, and basement add convenience rarely found downtown. Whether you're looking to combine your business and lifestyle, start a new venture in a premier location, or simply enjoy downtown Lewes living, this property delivers. There is even room to expand. Plenty of room to add a pool and still have parking in your private driveway. Only three owners in over a century. Opportunities like this are rare. 📍 Prime Second Street address 🏡 Mixed-use zoning in commercial district ✅ Fully renovated, turnkey ready 🚗 Private parking + garage 🌞 Owned solar panels 📜 Sellers are licensed Delaware REALTORS®.
