If you love Southern Living homes as much as we do, you have a lot to be excited about! The Lewes Building Company will be starting construction on Tucker Bayou later this month in the community of Hawkseye near historic downtown Lewes.  This house plan was inspired by classic seaside architecture, drawing on the aesthetic of traditional Southern coastal cottages.  This thoughtful floor plan offers several very unique features, the most distinctive of which is a seamless connection of interior and exterior living spaces. Tucker Bayou was designed by Looney Ricks Kiss Architects and was featured as the 2007 Southern Living Idea Home.

One of the benefits of working with The Lewes Building Company is our relationship with Southern Living architects.  Not only do we have access to thousands of house plans, our clients are able to work directly with Southern Living architects to customize their homes and make them completely their own.  Other builders may only have a few plan options at their disposal or will ask you to modify your blueprints with one of their in-house CAD technicians. Ideally, blueprints should be modified by professional architects who have an understanding of design aesthetic, scale, and the architectural style your home reflects.   Well executed design adds value to your home.

The Tucker Bayou to be built on home site 57 is under contract and is not available; however, if you are in the market for a lot/home package, The Lewes Building Company currently has one premier wooded perimeter home site, lot 55, still available in Hawkseye.  This home site is priced extremely competitively - and it is the last perimeter wooded home site available in Hawkseye.  Please refer to our map of Hawkseye.

If you are ready to move into a new home today, Wellstone Place, on perimeter home site 56 in Hawkseye is currently available and ready for immediate delivery.  This huge 4,717 sq ft Southern Living custom home was specifically chosen for this lot because it takes advantage of the views of Delaware’s beautiful protected wetlands which will never be developed into future homes.
