lot A Shortly Rd, Georgetown, DE 19947

"A quiet acre off Shortly Road, ready whenever you are." Some lots check boxes. This one hands you a blank page. Set on a gently wooded 1.18-acre parcel along Shortly Road in Georgetown, Lot A comes with something increasingly hard to find in Sussex County: real freedom. No builder tie-in means you bring your own plans and your own contractor — whether that's a craftsman ranch, a modern farmhouse, or something entirely your own. The hard work of permitting is already underway: a DNREC-approved site evaluation is on file for an elevated sand mound system, so your builder can move forward without the waiting game. The tree canopy gives natural privacy while leaving you plenty of room to site a home, detached garage, or workshop. Delaware's low property taxes and no sales tax make this one of the most cost-effective states on the East Coast to put down roots — and Rehoboth Beach is just minutes away when you're ready to trade the trees for the shore.
