High-Tech and Heavenly, This $6.6M Oceanside Retreat Is Delaware’s Most Expensive Home

A newly renovated coastal home now on the market for $6.6 million currently ranks as the most expensive listing in Delaware.

Located in Bethany Beach, along the second-smallest state’s sought-after Sussex Coast, this 5,476-square-foot property offers beach access through a private walkway from the backyard.

“You can easily walk on the beach to downtown Bethany for dinner or shopping,” says listing agent Leslie Kopp.

Each July, the town celebrates Périers Day, in honor of the French city of Périers, which Bethany was modeled after.

The home also represents the latest in smart home technology and was named the 2018 CTA Integrated Security Project of the Year.

“The smart home system is both impressive and convenient,” says Kopp. The full-house system also offers innovative features designed specifically for a coastal property, including the ability to turn off the water or close the storm shutters remotely.

“This property offers the size and quality expected on the oceanfront, yet [it] maintains a relaxed coastal feel,” says Kopp. There are six en suite bedrooms, including the luxury master bedroom. A second living room with a wet bar offers additional space to relax, entertain, and spread out.

The chef’s kitchen includes top-of-the-line appliances, custom cabinetry, and granite countertops. It opens to the dining area and main living space, which are painted in airy pastels for more of a beachy aesthetic. An elevator provides easy access to the home’s three stories.

Views of the Atlantic Ocean are easy to enjoy thanks to an abundance of large windows, outdoor decks, and a screened-in porch.

Heavy crowds along the shoreline won’t be a problem since this section of the coast is private. Don’t worry about swimming either—the beach has lifeguards on duty.

Spend the day at the beach or in town; either way, this pricey place offers an unforgettable oceanside getaway.
