About 166 E Mill Pond Dr
Welcome Home — Summer is Here! Step into a place where time slows down and summer memories are waiting to be made. Nestled on a beautifully landscaped 1.66-acre lot, this charming Colonial is more than a house—it's a retreat. Designed with both connection and quiet moments in mind, every inch of this home invites you to breathe deep, live simply, and gather often. Start your mornings on the oversized screened-in porch, coffee in hand, surrounded by the soft sounds of nature and the golden light of the day ahead. With its vaulted ceilings and tranquil views of the wooded backdrop, it’s the kind of space that makes you linger a little longer. In the evenings, it's perfect for unwinding after a day at the beach or hosting those laid-back summer get-togethers we all love. Just beyond, a peaceful pond stocked with fish brings a storybook charm to the backyard, while the semi-private yard gives you just the right balance of open space and seclusion. Whether you're grilling on the paved patio, planting herbs by the vibrant flower beds, or chasing fireflies under the mature trees, you’ll feel the stress of the day simply melt away. And thanks to the sprinkler system with a separate meter, keeping it all green and thriving is easy and efficient. And here’s the best part—this slice of paradise is less than 10 miles from the beaches of Maryland and Delaware. Whether your soul craves the fun of Ocean City or the charm of Delaware’s quieter shore towns, you’re just minutes from the sand, the surf, and everything in between. Inside, this home brings together classic comfort and modern touches. The traditional layout features formal living and dining spaces, perfect for family holidays, dinner parties, or simply reconnecting around the table. The cozy family room, complete with a gas fireplace, flows into the chef’s kitchen, where granite countertops, rich cabinetry, a center island, and stainless steel appliances create a space that’s as functional as it is beautiful. Upstairs, you'll find three spacious bedrooms, plus a generous bonus room—perfect for a playroom, or a creative workspace. The primary suite is your personal escape, with vaulted ceilings, a private sitting nook, and an en-suite bath featuring a walk-in shower that feels like a spa day every day. And with the second-floor laundry, everyday routines just got a whole lot simpler. Need more room? The first-floor bedroom option gives you the flexibility to grow or host guests with ease. With a 5-year-old roof, 6-year-old HVAC, and a tankless hot water heater, this home is built for comfort, efficiency, and years of making memories. So come, walk the property. Feel the breeze. Imagine your family gathered here, the sound of laughter in the air, and the peace of knowing you’re finally home. Schedule your tour today—this summer sanctuary won’t wait.
