About this home

Nestled in a serene, tree-lined setting in Bethany Beach, Delaware, 846 Glen Drive is a stunning coastal retreat that perfectly balances sophisticated design with casual beach-house comfort. Located within the sought-after community of Bethany Glen-conveniently situated inside town limits and on the Bethany Trolley route-this property also includes one in-town parking pass, with the option to purchase a second for a nominal fee, offering exceptional ease of access to the beach and downtown amenities. Bethany Glen is a non-rental community, providing a more peaceful and residential atmosphere. This expansive residence offers 3,366 square feet of conditioned living space, greeting guests with a striking stone-accented facade, a welcoming front porch, and a grand arched entryway that sets the tone for the elegance found within. The heart of the home is the dramatic two-story living room, where a soaring wood-plank ceiling and a wall of windows flood the space with natural light. This central gathering area features a wood-burning fireplace that can be easily converted to gas, offering both traditional charm and modern convenience. The space overlooks a gourmet kitchen designed for the modern chef, complete with crisp cabinetry, sleek granite countertops, and a tiered breakfast bar that flows effortlessly into the surrounding dining areas, making it an ideal layout for entertaining. For those seeking relaxation, the main level includes a sun-drenched sunroom with tiled flooring and panoramic views of the lush backyard. This space opens directly onto an oversized rear deck, providing a seamless transition to outdoor living. The primary suite, also located on the first floor, serves as a private sanctuary with its generous proportions, two massive walk-in closets with organizers, and a spa-like en suite bathroom featuring a large soaking tub and dual vanities. The main floor is completed by a dedicated home office, a formal dining room, and a practical laundry suite located just off the spacious two-car garage. The second floor is equally impressive, offering a versatile floor plan that accommodates family and guests with ease. A large open hallway overlooks the living room below, leading to two well-appointed bedrooms and a full bath. The highlight of the upper level is the massive family room-an expansive 35-foot bonus space that can serve as a bedroom, media room, play area, or secondary lounge-featuring a propane-fueled fireplace that adds warmth and ambiance to this inviting retreat. Positioned on a beautifully landscaped lot with a private, fenced-in backyard, this home offers a rare combination of privacy and proximity to the coast, providing the ultimate Bethany Beach lifestyle.
