Check Out The Island!
Bethany Beach, South Bethany - Fenwick
Island
With their clean, free, beautiful open
spaces and quaint seaside charm, "The Quiet Resorts" are the coastal towns
near Delaware's southern border, including Bethany Beach, South Bethany,
Fenwick Island and Ocean View, all neatly nestled between the Atlantic Ocean
and bay areas.
By preserving traditions and
old-fashioned values, each town has maintained its own unique quality,
charm and small-town atmosphere. Commercial growth has been carefully managed
and the area has remained primarily residential - a blend of small quaint
cottage and luxurious, oceanfront villas.
Many miles of pristine beaches, bays and
wildlife preserves provide a sanctuary for those who desire escape from the
hustle and bustle of the city life. Beautiful shore birds and other wildlife
remain undisturbed in refuges carefully protected and maintained. In Bethany
Beach, walkers find the non-commercial boardwalk ideal for leisurely strolls
while enjoying the sounds and sights of the surf.
There are three state parks in the
Bethany-Fenwick area. Delaware Seashore State Park offers six miles of
ocean and bay shoreline, a campground, 250-slip marine with charter and head
boats as well as boat ramp facilities. Fenwick Island State Park is quiet with
restroom facilities, a bathhouse and food stand - saltwater lovers are set for
the entire day! Holts Landing State Park, on the south shore of the Indian
River Bay has a pavilion for family picnics, boat ramp, playground and ball
fields. Fishing, clamming and crabbing can also be enjoyed at Holts
Landing.
A myriad of recreational
opportunities are available to please even the most discerning. Aside from
swimming and sunbathing, water sports include boating, kayaking, sailing, water
skiing, jet skiing, sail boarding, parasailing, surfing, water slides,
clamming, crabbing and fishing.
You will be certain to stay while in
the resort area, and family-operated motels, bed and breakfast inns,
restaurants, campgrounds and businesses provide friendly, hometown hospitality
with amenities expected in a fine resort. A large variety of specialty shops
and boutiques make it fun to shop, and the added bonus is, of course, tax free
shopping!

Buying Land and New Construction >Buying New or Buying Old
New homes typically have a higher sales price than comparable existing homes, and buyers are usually willing to spend more on a new home because of lower maintenance costs. Builders' warranties on new homes, when combined with a new roof, appliances, and major systems, usually make major repairs unnecessary and help to counter a slower initial rate of appreciation.
Census Bureau Housing Surveys suggests that operating costs are lowest for brand new homes and slightly higher for relatively new existing homes. Operating costs per square foot of living space are consistently higher for progressively older existing homes. Utility costs represent the largest factor in operating costs. Energy consumption per square foot depends on the size of the home, the insulation and quality of the windows, air leakage and the efficiency of the furnace.
New homes require fewer expenditures for routine maintenance. The cost of maintenance first increases with age, then declines, so you will generally spend less maintaining a home built before 1960 than for a home built between 1970 and 1975.
