Rare opportunity along Savannah Road just outside the Lewes city limits! Situated close to downtown Lewes and Beebe Healthcare, this approximately 3.71-acre parcel offers a unique combination of location, visibility and acreage in one of the area's most desirable and established corridors. With approximately 342 feet of frontage along Savannah Road, the property offers excellent exposure while remaining outside town limits. The parcel is not located within a residential community and is currently zoned AR-1. A conditional use for a medical office building was previously approved for the property but has since expired. Buyers interested in commercial, professional or other conditional-use possibilities should perform their own due diligence with Sussex County regarding zoning, permitted uses and the potential for future approvals. The property is being offered for its land value and provides an unusual opportunity to acquire a sizable parcel this close to downtown Lewes. Public sewer hookup is available. Whether considered for a permitted residential use or for its potential subject to future approvals, the combination of acreage, Savannah Road frontage and proximity to downtown Lewes makes this a property worth exploring.

The purpose of these districts is to provide for a full range of agricultural activities and to protect agricultural lands, as one of the county's most valuable natural resources, from the depreciating effect of objectional, hazardous and unsightly uses. They should also protect established agricultural operations and activities. These districts are also intended for protection of watersheds, water resources, forest areas and scenic values and, at the same time, to provide for low-density single-family residential development, together with such churches, recreational facilities and accessory uses as may be necessary or are normally compatible with residential surroundings. The AR regulations seek to prevent untimely scattering of more-dense urban uses, which should be confined to areas planned for efficient extension of public services.
