Property Description
Welcome to "The Mill," an iconic residence in the heart of downtown Lewes that seamlessly blends historic charm with modern luxury, situated on almost a half-acre. Dating back to 1860 as the Jones Brothers Flour and Grist Mill, this distinctive property later served as a brush factory in the 1920's before being converted into multiple apartments. In 1998, The Mill was taken down to the studs and transformed into a stunning single-family residence. The current owners, who purchased the property in 2012, have since made numerous updates, including the priceless addition of a custom-designed outdoor kitchen and exterior entertaining spaces. Upon entry, you're greeted by soaring ceilings and wide plank hardwood floors that exude warmth, class and character. The spacious family room is a true centerpiece, featuring original post and beam accents, built-ins, and a cozy gas fireplace. This inviting space flows effortlessly into the gourmet kitchen, truly, a chef's dream. The kitchen is outfitted with commercial grade stainless steel appliances including dual ovens, 6-buyer Wolf cooktop, Sub-Zero refrigerator, and beverage fridge. The sleek quartz countertops, farmhouse sink, large prep island, abundant cabinetry, wet bar with wine fridge, and a walk-in pantry create the most attractive and functional spaces. Neighboring the kitchen, you will find the formal dining room adorned with intricate dental moldings, wainscoting, a gas fireplace, and a chandelier that adds a touch of sophistication. For more intimate gatherings, the cozy den or game room offers a welcoming atmosphere with detailed moldings, a gas fireplace, and French doors. The sunroom bathes in natural light with brick flooring, white paneled walls and ceilings, exposed beams, and expansive windows that overlook the pristine pool and manicured yard. Ascend the staircase or take the elevator to the second level, where the luxurious primary suite awaits. The classic wide plank hardwood floors continue, a gas fireplace offers a warming ambiance, exposed beams highlight the historic charm, and a custom walk-in closet offers complete functionality. The ensuite bath offers a spa-like retreat with dual sinks, a soaking tub, and a tiled walk-in shower. Two additional guest bedrooms and a laundry closet complete this level. The third level, accessible by stairs and elevator, is a versatile space with vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, built-in cabinetry, and skylights. This level includes a rec room, kitchenette, two additional guest bedrooms, and a full bath, making it the ideal guest quarters! The garage wing was designed for convenience and versatility. A spacious laundry room featuring ample storage, counter space for folding, a utility sink, towel hooks and an additional fridge/freezer can be accessed from the driveway or rear yard. This is the ideal drop zone following long days on the beach, boating or relaxing by the pool. This space also includes a full bath with outdoor access, perfect for pool parties and outdoor entertaining! This multi-purpose laundry opens to a foyer that leads to the spacious 2-car garage. From this location you can also access an additional half bath, and a second-level flex space above the garage that is currently used as a home gym. This area could easily be transformed into a home office, movie room, craft room, or playroom. Step outside to your private retreat, where meticulously landscaped grounds surround a refreshing in-ground pool. Spend cool evenings by the fire under the cozy pergola or whip up delicious meals in the outdoor kitchen, complete with large grill, refrigerators, dishwasher and a commercial-grade pizza oven. These outdoor spaces are perfect for creating lasting memories under the sun or stars. With the convenience of off-street parking and a location steps away from everything downtown Lewes has to offer, "The Mill” is truly a unique and unparalleled residence.
