Description

Located at 2547 Chance Road near Kenton in Kent County, Delaware, this 14.4± acre property includes an existing residence, barn, tillable ground, pasture, and a pond. The combination of residential improvements, agricultural land, storage space, and direct road access provides several potential uses for buyers seeking manageable acreage in central Delaware.

The existing home and other improvements are being sold as-is. Buyers should independently evaluate the condition of the residence, barn, mechanical systems, utilities, and other property components. Inspections may be completed for informational purposes, subject to the terms of an accepted purchase agreement.

The barn provides space that may be suitable for equipment, tools, agricultural supplies, general storage, livestock, or certain business-related activities. Any commercial, agricultural, livestock, or home-based business use is subject to zoning, licensing, permitting, insurance, and other applicable requirements. Buyers should contact Kent County and the appropriate state agencies to confirm that their intended use is permitted.

The acreage includes tillable land that may support crop production, gardens, food plots, hay, or other agricultural activities. Pasture areas may also provide space for livestock or small-scale farming. The pond adds another land feature that may support recreational, agricultural, or wildlife-related use. Buyers should verify the acreage, boundaries, soil conditions, fencing, water availability, pond condition, and suitability of the land for their specific plans.

This property may be considered by buyers interested in establishing a small farm, expanding an existing agricultural operation, storing equipment, keeping livestock, or using the acreage for outdoor recreation. No agricultural income, crop yield, livestock capacity, business approval, or recreational result is represented or guaranteed.

The property may also have potential for a minor subdivision. Any subdivision concept is subject to Kent County regulations, state requirements, surveys, soil testing, environmental review, road access standards, utility planning, permitting, and approval by the applicable agencies. Buyers are responsible for completing their own due diligence and confirming whether the property can be divided, how many lots may be approved, and what improvements or infrastructure may be required. No subdivision approval or development outcome is guaranteed.

A soil evaluation is available, and an engineered septic system design has been prepared. The seller will provide a credit at settlement toward the installation of a new septic system. The amount and terms of the credit should be included in the purchase agreement. Buyers should review the soil evaluation and engineered design with qualified professionals and confirm permit status, installation requirements, system capacity, contractor availability, and current costs.

The property has direct access from Chance Road and is located near Kenton, with connections to Clayton, Smyrna, Hartly, Cheswold, and Dover. The location also provides access to communities across the Maryland state line, including Millington, Sudlersville, Marydel, Galena, and Chestertown.

Prospective buyers should investigate all matters relevant to the purchase and intended use of the property. Due diligence may include confirming acreage, boundaries, surveys, easements, road frontage, access, zoning, permitted uses, subdivision standards, wetlands, drainage, flood-zone status, environmental conditions, tillable acreage, fencing, pond condition, utilities, well and septic systems, building permits, and the condition of all structures.

With 14.4 acres, a residence, barn, tillable land, pasture, and a pond, the property offers a combination of existing improvements and usable land.
