DEVELOPERS, BUILDERS & INVESTORS — a rare commercial development opportunity directly adjacent to the Route 1 corridor and DE Turf Sports Complex. Offered together are six contiguous vacant parcels totaling approximately 1.85 acres at 3624 Bay Road, providing exceptional visibility and positioning in one of Kent County’s most active travel and recreation corridors. All six parcels were rezoned in 2025 to BG – General Business, significantly expanding the property’s development potential. The parcels may be combined into a single development site, creating flexibility for a variety of commercial or investment concepts. Kent County’s General Business zoning allows for a broad range of uses, making this an excellent opportunity for a developer looking to capitalize on both Route 1 traffic and the steady flow of visitors traveling to DE Turf. Potential uses include a restaurant or bar, commercial lodging/hotel, retail center, professional or medical offices, gas station/convenience store, mixed-use development, mini-storage, automotive sales/service, sports medicine facility, commercial recreation, or multifamily apartments, among numerous other possibilities, subject to the applicable County review and approval requirements. A concept plan has already been prepared for an 18-unit apartment-style development, offering a starting point for an investor interested in housing or potentially developing the units for transient/short-term lodging to serve families, teams and visitors traveling to the nearby DE Turf Sports Complex, subject to Kent County approval and classification of the intended use. With 1.85 acres, six contiguous parcels, General Business zoning, immediate proximity to DE Turf and Route 1, and multiple potential income-producing development strategies, this is the type of site that offers developers the ability to pursue the highest and best use rather than being limited to a single concept. Whether the vision is hospitality, food and beverage, retail, multifamily, mixed-use or another commercial project, the location and zoning create a compelling opportunity in the growing Milford/Frederica corridor. Concept plan and additional property information available upon request. Buyer and buyer’s engineer should independently verify zoning, permitted uses, parcel consolidation, utilities, access, site-plan requirements and all governmental approvals necessary for buyer’s intended use.

Introducing the Saulters Branch Hunting Retreat, a single parcel extending from McColley Road to the shoreline of the Mispillion River. This +/-87.59 acres is comprised of a mix of woods (+/-42.52ac), marsh (+/-44.07), and a +/-1.0 ac of cleared land along McColley Road. The parcel sits just east of Milford, DE in Sussex County, on the east side of Route 1. It has +/-240' of road frontage along McColley Road and +/-0.3 mile(1825') of shoreline along the Mispillion River which drains to the Delaware Bay. Saulters Branch used to be a working farm with the front half of the property being tillable land up until the early 2000's. Around 2004, the owner, at the time, made use of a government set-aside program and planted the entire tillable acreage to a mix of pines and hardwoods. The property has great access which is easily driven through the woods on the south side going almost to the marsh. Situated on the edge of Sussex County it is just outside the town limits of Milford and is a short drive to Dover and the Delaware beach towns. As a hunting property, this one checks the boxes for white-tailed deer, waterfowl and turkeys. The areas of tillable land that were planted to trees around 2004 are now a young forest. These areas are entirely Downer loamy sand. The area of natural woods closer to the marsh is a mix of Fallsington sandy loam and Downer loamy sand soil types. The wooded areas are great habitat for white-tails and turkeys. Other upland species could be managed for here as well. There is great access through the woods and several cleared areas for food plot establishment, stand/blind placement, and shooting lanes. The property has been hunted annually for white-tails, waterfowl, and turkey. Saulters Branch Hunting Retreat is in an excellent location for waterfowl hunting. It sits only three to five miles from Federally, State, and privately protected wetland and wooded habitat. All of these spots are excellent resting, feeding, and resident breeding grounds for waterfowl traveling along the Atlantic Flyway. The marsh here at Saulters Branch has great access from the Mispillion River's shoreline, the navigable guts on the north and south side of the property, and there is a gut right up the middle of the marsh, referred to as "Middle Ditch". This access provides the ability to place blinds, install duck nesting boxes & manage them, and perform habitat management practices such as spraying for phragmites. So, whether you are a hunter, a bird watcher, nature lover Saulters Branch could be your next Retreat. The property will surely provide many memories for someone. It is large enough to have a permanent residence near the front of the property and possibly a hunting cabin in the woods away from the home. Or, make this a true hunting retreat and only build a hunting cabin/lodge and own and manage the property as a hunt club. Both farms adjacent to the Saulter Branch are already saved from development being enrolled in Agriculture Preservation. Another angle for a buyer to explore would be the eligibility for a minor subdivision. The property used to have two mobile homes here, connected to one approved septic system. A buyer is responsible for doing their due diligence for possible State/County approval for future septic systems, construction of a permanent residence, and/or a hunting lodge, or even doing a minor subdivision. Saulters Branch Hunting Retreat is in a great location of Sussex County with close proximity to a major highway for travel up and down the state and close to Milford for shopping & dining without being in town limits. It is positioned well for awesome hunting being surrounded by agricultural lands and close to so much protected wildlife habitat along Delaware's coastal areas. Make Saulters Branch your new home by creating your own private Retreat. PLEASE DO NOT ENTER THE PROPERTY WITHOUT PERMISSION FROM THE LAND GROUP.
