That's the story of this Delaware beach house in the resort town of Rehoboth...
... built in 2004, the 1,800-square-foot house was going to be a second home for the owners, a carriage house with plans for a four story main house...
... but then the carriage house stood empty most of the time, "It's just more house than we need," said the owners..., so the main house was never built (except for the pilings)...
... then last November the owners decided to sell and put the beach house on the market for $2.25 million..., and just a few days ago the price was lowered to $1,995,000...
... may this beautiful home on 4.5 acres soon be occupied and loved..., it won my heart with its driveway and 33 Endless View address alone.You can check out the listing here.

Wow is right. I can't imagine building that carriage house and then NOT wanting to be there all the time. For shame! Hopefully someone does snap it up soon!
Ummmmm..... if the carriage house is too much house for them, why did they plan to build a four-storey main house as well?! Some people have too much money and not enough smarts....
This house is SO beautiful -- if I had a spare $2 million and lived in Delaware, I'd snap it up in a second!!
I hope somebody buys this house soon and spends LOTS of time there enjoying it :-)

P.S. The LV scaffolding photo on my post is so true and original...well you know it's french...exposed scaffolding just isn't right :)
I only hope the new owners gives this house the love it deserves!
Wow. To answer your question, no, I cannot imagine that. My hubby is from Delaware, and although I love it here in warm Miami, I would live there in a heartbeat!
We took the Lewes Ferry from Delaware over to Cape May, NJ this past holiday season and had soooo much fun. There is the cutest little town there... looks like your first pic??? that has a great little bookstore/cafe and little shops... :)
That home is *amazing* - and what an address, too. :) Your blog is beautiful - I could spend days looking around here!
Awwww, poor little unloved carriage house! I imagine there is more to the story than "too much house for us".
What a beautiful driveway! And gorgeous little home! Well, not SO little at 2 mill!
Beautiful~
Hope it finds very apppreciative new owners!
I can't imagine that ever happening(!) That last photo is enough to sell me on this house, too.
I love this home! And it's only up the street. Sort of. If only I had 2 million dollars:)
Oh how I wish I had an extra two million dollars lying around. Love the long lane!
I think that the House is very pretty but the delaware beach house that was built on the beach i think that i would by it if i had the money to... i love the lane and the house i love the carriege to. me and my fiance would love to have that house......*WOW VERY BEAUTIFUL*
