Welcome to 1432 Bayard Avenue, an extraordinary luxury coastal residence just two blocks from the Atlantic Ocean in Dewey Beach’s most coveted residential neighborhood, Rehoboth by the Sea – bordering Silver Lake and Lake Comegys. Rarely does a fee simple home of this stature become available in this location. Custom built in 2023, this remarkable property offers over 4,500 square feet of sophisticated living space, 10 generously sized bedrooms, 9 1/2 baths, exceptional craftsmanship, and resort-inspired amenities. A full basement offers abundant storage and other flexible options such as media room, inlaw suite, etc. Currently generating approximately $300,000 in annual rental income, this exceptional home presents a compelling opportunity for both luxury coastal living and investment. Built by a prominent local builder, the residence showcases architectural details rarely found in today's coastal construction, including 10-foot ceilings, solid oak hardwood floors throughout, wide staircases, custom millwork, coffered ceilings, shiplap accents, raised wood paneling, and plantation shutters. Every room reflects thoughtful design, quality materials, and extraordinary attention to detail. The expansive main level is designed for effortless entertaining, featuring a gracious living room with gas fireplace, a custom dining table accommodating up to 16 guests, and a spectacular chef's kitchen. Premium Viking appliances include a 48-inch refrigerator, 35-inch gas range, two dishwashers, freezer drawers, an undercounter ice maker, and microwave. A convenient first-floor king ensuite provides comfortable accommodations for guests seeking single-level living. Across three beautifully appointed levels, 10 spacious bedrooms and individually designed bathrooms offer privacy and comfort for extended family and guests. Second- and third-floor coffee bars feature beverage refrigerators and custom cabinetry. The exceptionally spacious second-floor primary suite also offers exciting possibilities for reconfiguration into an expansive private retreat with dual baths, a generous 12x12 walk-in closet, and optional office, as illustrated in available conceptual plans. Outdoor living rivals that of a private luxury resort. A magnificent 10-by-32-foot screened porch features a richly finished wood ceiling, gas fireplace, and overhead heater, creating an inviting three-season entertaining space.

The basement offers exceptional potential for future finished living space, subject to applicable approvals. Perhaps most compelling is the property's exceptional scale and rarity. With 10 bedrooms in a location where current zoning reportedly limits new construction to six bedrooms, this 2023 residence cannot be replicated in this neighborhood under current building and zoning codes. Just two blocks from the beach and steps to Dewey's Fifer’s farm market, acclaimed dining, entertainment, and neighboring Rehoboth Beach, the property combines a premier coastal lifestyle with an established luxury rental operation. With a negotiable turnkey furnished package, this professionally decorated, luxury residence is move in ready with no inconvenience or down time. 1432 Bayard Avenue is more than an exceptional beach home—it is a distinctive coastal estate offering luxury, grand scale living, and outstanding investment potential.

7 Beds ⋅ 7 Baths
INVESTOR ALERT | Extraordinary Coastal Retreat with Exceptional Rental Performance! Welcome to 14 Swedes Street, a seven-bedroom, six-bathroom coastal retreat just steps from the Atlantic Ocean in the heart of Dewey Beach. Combining luxurious coastal living, remarkable privacy, and an established, turnkey vacation rental business, this property presents the opportunity to acquire a proven income-producing destination with an established clientele and valuable pipeline of future reservations. Generating an impressive $280,000 in actual gross rental revenue in 2026, with $224,000 already booked for 2027 and the potential to exceed $300,000 annually, 14 Swedes stands apart as a compelling coastal investment. An established rental history, loyal repeat guests, and substantial advance bookings provide a prospective purchaser the opportunity to continue a successful vacation rental operation rather than build one from the ground up. Extensively expanded and thoughtfully renovated, this beautifully appointed residence was designed for exceptional beach living and effortless entertaining. A substantial 2022 expansion introduced a spacious first-floor great room and an entirely new second-floor addition featuring two king-bedroom suites with private baths, an additional living room, a full hallway bath, and an expansive 20-by-25-foot rooftop deck offering views of the Atlantic Ocean. This outdoor space provides the perfect setting for morning coffee, afternoon cocktails, and evening gatherings beneath the coastal sky. The home's three distinct living areas provide exceptional flexibility for extended families and larger groups, offering generous space to gather or retreat in privacy—a feature consistently appreciated by returning guests. The beautifully updated kitchen is a showpiece, featuring quartz and butcher block countertops, an expansive center island, new cabinetry, generous pantry storage, a beverage refrigerator, and a newly installed 48-inch built-in professional refrigerator. Updated flooring complements the home's inviting, thoughtfully furnished interiors, while multiple living and entertaining spaces comfortably accommodate extended families and vacationing guests. Meticulously maintained and beautifully appointed, this exceptional residence defies expectations of a vacation rental, showcasing impeccable interiors, sophisticated coastal décor, and more than $50,000 in enhancements completed in 2026. Perhaps the property's most extraordinary feature is its remarkably private outdoor oasis. The heated swimming pool and surrounding entertaining areas are bordered by single-story neighboring residences, creating an intimate, secluded setting rarely found this close to the ocean. Without towering neighboring homes overlooking the pool and patio, this exceptional outdoor retreat offers a level of privacy increasingly difficult to find in the densely developed beach communities of Rehoboth and Dewey. And with the beach just a one-minute stroll away, the Atlantic Ocean becomes an effortless extension of the property. Beyond its exceptional accommodations and coveted ocean-block location, 14 Swedes offers something increasingly valuable to investors: an established rental business with demonstrated financial performance, substantial forward reservations, repeat-guest relationships, and meaningful potential for continued revenue growth. Its seven-bedroom configuration, private heated pool, ocean views, and extensive amenities have helped establish the property as a sought-after luxury vacation destination. Offered as a beautifully furnished, turnkey coastal retreat, 14 Swedes presents an exceptional opportunity to enjoy the best of Dewey Beach while benefiting from an established income stream and an existing book of rental business, subject to the transfer of applicable reservations and operating arrangements. An extraordinary coastal retreat. A proven rental performer. An investment opportunity in a class of its own.
