Four Seasons at Scenic Harbor is a 55+ active adult community in Lewes, Delaware, set near Rehoboth Bay where the homes sit on 187 acres and some spots look out over Arnell Creek or right onto the bay, which gives a nice view if that's something you care about, and the whole place is planned to fit in with Delaware's land and natural features, so it's not all paved over, with things like wooded homesites and walking trails threaded here and there. The heart of this place is a big 7,000-square-foot clubhouse that sits by a lake, where folks go to the lounge, hit the billiards or game rooms, or wander out onto an outdoor patio where there's a firepit and tiki bar, and they've filled it up with other stuff, too, like a fitness center, aerobics room, and an outdoor pool with lap lanes plus a spa area, and you see people picking up pickleball paddles or rolling bocce balls if that's more their speed. Recreation and social things crop up, with areas for yoga or water aerobics, book clubs, and card games, and they've got a poolside grill station and places to just sit in the sun, and sometimes you'll see guided walks or group dinners, so no one's left to sit alone unless that's what's wanted.
The homes here come in a range of floor plans, including names like Taylor, Kelly, Kerr, Franklin, Tuscaloosa, Munich, and Mykonos, and a person can pick from different layouts, like first-floor primary suites or homes with up to 4 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, with some going up to 3,570 square feet, which is plenty for company or for keeping that extra office or den, and the finishes in each house come in styles called Loft, Farmhouse, Classic, or Elements Looks, so each place ends up with its own touch, and the builder is K. Hovnanian, which is known for single-family homes with things like tray ceilings, covered back porches, high ceilings, and in most cases a 3-car garage, so you don't have to leave a car out in the rain, and they throw in tankless hot water heaters for those looking for a little more efficiency. The homes are low-maintenance, with lawn care included, so it's less to fret about.
There's a focus here on keeping people active, so you see lots of choices for walking or biking on the nature trails, and the pickleball and bocce courts get plenty of use, while the clubhouse is often the spot for neighbors to meet up, whether it's for a group class, a game, or just to relax on the outdoor patio by the fire as the day winds down. The community holds to rules about age, so it's mainly for those 55 and older, and they say the place was designed with people in mind who want a social, active life, and still like a little peace and quiet with nature close by. It's close to Cape Henlopen State Park, some well-regarded golf courses like Old Landing Golf Course and American Classic Golf Club, and there aren't any big city noises, but you've got beaches and healthcare nearby, along with the usual stores. The sales center stands at 34516 Scenic Harbor Way, and the community's just back from Beacon Middle School if you ever need to give directions. So all told, Four Seasons at Scenic Harbor is a new, age-restricted community that highlights trails, water views, a large clubhouse, and a line-up of social and fitness activities, with new homes that have flexible layouts and several designer styles to choose from.
