Welcome to your ultimate coastal escape in the sought-after community of Mallard Lakes - a rarely available 3-bedroom retreat offering the perfect blend of comfort, charm, and beach-town lifestyle. Step inside to a view of the lake! Continue on to an inviting open-concept living and dining area anchored by a cozy wood-burning fireplace, ideal for relaxing after a day at the shore. Upstairs you will find 3 spacious bedrooms. The primary suite features double closets and an en-suite bath. The generous storage throughout the home - including two attic spaces, extra bedroom storage, and an outdoor closet - ensures everything has its place. The showstopper is the beautiful sunroom, a serene spot to sip morning coffee, unwind with a book, or dine with friends while soaking in tranquil lake views and visiting wildlife. After a day at the beach, rinse off in the outdoor shower and settle into your peaceful retreat. Valuable updates include a new HVAC system (2025) and a newer hot water heater, and the home is being sold partially furnished - making it easy to start enjoying the beach life right away. Life at Mallard Lakes means access to resort-style amenities and community activities, including two pools, hot tub, lighted tennis and pickleball courts, volleyball and basketball courts, shuffleboard, fishing piers, grilling and picnic areas, and a tot's playground. The HOA covers amenities, lawn care, exterior maintenance, snow removal, trash, and flood insurance for truly low-maintenance living. Perfectly located just minutes from the Delaware and Maryland beaches, plus nearby dining, nightlife, shopping, golf, boating, and outdoor entertainment venues - this is worry-free beach living at its best.
