Ocean block in the Pines! The quintessential coastal cottage awaits at 10 Columbia Avenue. Only a short distance from the soft sand and crashing waves, this home is perfectly positioned on a double lot close to everything Rehoboth Beach has to offer. Shaded by beautiful mature trees, this cottage was built in the 1920s and has been lovingly maintained by the same family since the 1940s. The picket fencing, stunning magnolias and hydrangeas, and spacious wrap-around screened porch add to the homes personality. Original hardwood floors, a wood-burning fireplace with a white brick surround, and unique trims and moldings decorate the main house, which consists of 3 bedrooms and 3 recently updated baths. The home's expansive screened porches supply the most generous spaces for gatherings, entertaining, or simply relaxing. Just steps from the main house, you will find a private guest house with 1 bedroom, half bath, outside shower, and full laundry. With a separate storage shed, several storage nooks, a partial basement, and floored attic, this property offers room to grow. This property has great potential and an excellent ocean block opportunity!
