Destination? Sawgrass North, Schell Brothers Community, Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, Delaware Beaches, Southern Delaware

I never miss an opportunity to see real estate.  I guess that went with the territory for many years…my late husband, John, was a Broker and owner of his own real estate company in Bethany Beach.  So, when my neighbor, Chris, asked me to go check Sawgrass North I jumped in her car ready to go.  Sawgrass North is located at 35546 Betsy Ross Blvd., on Old Landing Rd. in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.

Sawgrass North is a Schell Brothers community.  It is private, gated, and just by Rehoboth Bay.    It has a clubhouse, pool, fitness, tennis and basketball courts.  And….lawn maintenance is included.

Meet Adam Pettengell….He is the Community Sales Manager at Sawgrass North.  Cel. 302-228-2719.  Website?  http://www.schellbrothers.com Email:  adam@schellbrothers.com.  His personality comes through as friendly, knowledgeable about real estate and what he is selling…and most of all a good sense of humor.  Even though I could have taken his photo on site, I decided to use the portrait of Adam in the Master Bedroom.  With that kind of personality, he can sell anything.

This 3,300 sq.ft. model home was already sold,  completely decorated.  Schell Brothers has an in-house designer.

The Tour…

The house has beautiful colors.  The people that are moving to Sawgrass North are those that are completely new to the Delaware Beaches, and also those that are downsizing…so tired of the up-keep of a much larger home.  They want more time to play and less time to spend working on the home.

If you do want to do some business from home, this area is perfect!!

The Kitchen is very open and conducive to entertainment.

The Living Room is spacious.  Two views; from the first floor and from the loft area on the second floor.

Master Bedroom, First Floor.

If you would like to dine indoors…love the table and the finished look.  Otherwise, outdoors on a beautiful day is the way to go.  Outdoor entertainment!!

Upstairs, there are 3 bedrooms and 2 baths.  They are beautifully decorated, reminding us that we are at the beach and fresh colors set the moods.

Bathrooms are comfortable and laundry room has everything needed.

Stop by and say hello to Adam….he really is so nice!!

DE Serving, Many Soupers helping One Woman Achieve her Mission

That’s what they are called; Soupers.  They have been helping Reverend Dunning for years; they are fiercely loyal to her and her mission.

Now they are jumping for joy since their mission will expand. 

I decided to take the bus ride to the site.  I wanted to see what all this was all about.  First, I needed my t-shirt and badge.

The location is the Lewes Georgetown Highway (Rt. 9) and the corner of Coolspring Rd.  Don’t even try to drive and park there.  No way, they won’t let you.  It is, after all, a construction site.  What you need to do is go to Cape Henlopen High School in Lewes.  At the tent, give them your name and you will get a visitor’s badge.  The bus comes and goes every 20 minutes.

I kept thinking I had seen him somewhere.  He looked so familiar.  I found out that Elvis was riding my bus!!  This Elvis impersonator was performing at the VIP tent.

They had done so much by 2:30 p.m.  An earthquake did not deter them.  They are Extreme, for crying out loud.  There was work to be done, a ranch to be finished, so idle chit chat was not going to happen.

I met Tom.  He was finishing his shift.  Early in the morning there was filming accomplished.  Tom looked tired, hot and ready to go home.  Still, he had a smile on his face.

I was not there for very long.  But, that’s all it took to get into the excitement of it all. 

The effect of human kindness, is a sense of well being…I get, I get!!   It is truly priceless…

Talk to you later….
