Lewes Beach, for the purposes of real estate searches on the MLS is the area bordered by the canal to the east and includes homes which are outside of planned, or gated neighborhoods.

A wide range of homes both in age, style and size makes Lewes Beach feel less stuffy than some other resort towns. While there are larger homes standing alongside cottages, the houses generally blend well together and the lots are zoned with setback requirements imposed by the city.

All roads and beach entrances are publicly accessible, yet most Lewes Beach day trippers tend to park at the Lewes city beach lot and Cape Henlopen State Park. The Lewes Beach lot at the end of Savannah Road has lifeguards during the summer months and also rules and regulations about its use.

Lewes Beach and Leased Land

One confusing feature that newcomers discover about Lewes Beach property is that the land is technically not held "in fee simple" (outright) but on "leased land". For most properties  that sit on leased land (in fact, with every other development in this county that we know of including, anything on Dewey Beach that sits on leased land), the homeowner pays an annual, quarterly, or monthly fee to a private landowner for a set period of time, for the right to keep their home on such land. The landowner may choose to renew the lease at the end of such period or not.

This is NOT the case with Lewes Beach. Due to the way the land was originally chartered (way back in the late 1600s or early 1700s) the city of Lewes will technically always own all land east of the Lewes Canal and leases each lot on this land to homeowners in 99 year renewable leases. There is no fee to renew this lease and there is no annual fee for this lease unless you count your city taxes which cover the public water and sewer and trash pickup. These leases automatically renew after 99 years OR if a new property owner/ buyer requests a renewal, the city will reset the lease at 99 years when the property changes hands. Many new property buyers do this because it gives them a sense of security but it is generally considered un-necessary.
