The Ultimate Retreat on Black Swamp Road Experience the epitome of quiet rural living in this impeccably maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom ranch situated on nearly 4 sprawling acres in Felton. This home is a rare find, offering the perfect balance of expansive outdoor space and a sophisticated, versatile interior—all with no HOA. The home also features a whole-home water softener for added convenience. Expansive Living & Gourmet Dining The interior layout is designed for both relaxation and effortless entertaining, featuring two distinct living room spaces. This rare floor plan provides the flexibility for a formal sitting room plus a cozy family den, a home office, or a dedicated media room. There is also a beautiful 3-season room for enjoying your private yard throughout the year. The heart of the home is the huge gourmet kitchen, a chef’s dream with ample workspace and storage. It flows seamlessly into the large dining area, creating an inviting centralized hub for holiday meals and daily gatherings. With three spacious bedrooms and two full bathrooms, the home offers comfort and privacy for everyone. Your Private Outdoor Oasis (With Hidden Acreage!) The highlight of the home is the stunning enclosed back porch. Thoughtfully designed with convertible windows, it allows you to catch a cross-breeze through the screens or stay cozy during summer storms. It is the perfect spot for morning coffee while birdwatching over your fully fenced, one-acre backyard—a safe haven surrounded by a lush perimeter of mature trees. A Note on the Grounds: While the photos showcase the beautiful fenced area and the treeline, there is much more to explore! The actual property lines extend well beyond the trees in the backyard, encompassing an additional 0.5+ acres of private land. This "hidden" acreage provides an extra buffer of serenity and endless possibilities for expansion. The Ultimate Workspace For the hobbyist, mechanic, or collector, the property features a massive pole barn. This versatile structure offers incredible storage for equipment, boats, or RVs, providing ample space for a workshop that can handle projects of any scale. Prime Location: Serenity Meets the Shore On Black Swamp Road, you are surrounded by great neighbors and absolute peace, yet you are only 45–60 minutes from several premier beaches and just 15 minutes from shopping and restaurants in Dover. Felton is known for its "small town" vibe, community events, and even a hidden gem coffee scene. Enjoy a morning with a kayak, hit up a local craft fair, and then relax in your private retreat with a bonfire in your backyard. Property Highlights: Move-In Ready: Freshly painted throughout with modern finishes. Flexible Layout: Two living areas and a massive gourmet kitchen/dining combo, plus 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms 3-Season Porch: Fully enclosed with screens and windows. Acreage & Privacy: Nearly 4 total acres. Note: Property extends 0.5+ acres beyond the rear treeline not fully captured in photos.
