This listing was last revised on or about 3.22.2025 to primarily reflect a recent meeting with the Sussex County Planning and Zoning Department (SCPZD). At said meeting, representatives of SCPZD confirmed that the originally listed 2 parcels did not have to be sold together. And that the 50-ft access easement could continue to be owned by the seller and the buyer of the primary parcel, after the sale, would have access to that parcel VIA the access easement.
This secluded, unimproved, wooded property of nearly 4.27 +/- acres is blessed with a central drainage feature (not a tax ditch) that nearly dissects the property in two. The property is in a fantastic central location that is situated less than 3 miles from downtown Milton, a few minutes from Coastal Hwy (Route 1), and its location affords quick access to beaches and shopping at Lewes (less than 12 miles) and Rehoboth Beach (less than 14 miles). Milford and Dover are only 10 and 29 miles away, respectively. The property is zoned GR and an excerpt of the county code (see attached listing documents) identifies allowable uses within that zoning to include, but may not be limited to: Detached single-family manufactured homes on individual lots; Detached single-family dwellings on individual lots; Garage/studio apartment with at least one parking space for the exclusive use of the tenant; Any farm, truck garden, orchard or nursery uses; Stable structures or feed lots, private, for keeping and feeding of horses, ponies, cattle, sheep, goats, hogs or poultry for personal enjoyment, and not as a business; Public parks, public and private forests, wildlife reservations and similar conservation projects (conditions may apply). Note that the property has potential for subdivision under the Major Subdivisions provisions of Sussex County Planning and zoning code (required because the subject parcel is the original residual lot from a 1960s era subdivision). Selling 1 parcel - Tax ID 235-07.00-83.00 (4.27 acres). Access to the subject parcel is provided via a separate 50-Foot-wide access easement (see Tax ID 235-07.00-8313 of .76 acres). While both parcels are currently on the same Deed document (see attached documents) Sussex County Planning and Zoning has confirmed the lots can each have their own Deed document as a part of the settlement process. There appears to be the potential for subdividing the subject parcel in such a way as to result in 3-4 wooded lots. Annual taxes $150.00.
