About this property

Stunning Downtown Studio in Lewes

A first-class studio, newly constructed @ Preservation Forge, located in the heart of downtown Lewes--named 2022 most beautiful city in America--a stones throw from the beach, boutiques, restaurants, & cultural destinations of this charming town. Custom wood details from Old Wood Delaware (visit our store on the first floor of the building) make this a strikingly beautiful space. It boasts a king bed and pullout queen sofa bed, stocked kitchen, lounging space, and full bath with designer tiled shower, and washer/dryer.

-The Space-
Stepping into our charming, newly renovated studio, you will enjoy the old brick columns and reclaimed wood details, including the antique support beam, and solid wide plank white oak flooring. The king sized bed is beautifully appointed with the softest linens. In the gathering area, there is a comfy loveseat (which folds out into a queen sized bed with an upgraded memory foam mattress) and a large Smart TV. Behind the loveseat is a large antique wood slab sofa console which duals as a work or dining space with three stools. The open layout includes a fully stocked kitchenette with a honed granite counter and custom tiled backsplash. There is a full-sized refrigerator, dishwasher, induction stovetop, microwave (which is also a convection oven), and kitchen disposal. You’ll appreciate all of the accent lighting throughout, that enhances the ambiance of the space. A stunning fully custom tiled designer bathroom includes a custom floating white oak granite-topped vanity, highlighted by under cabinet lighting and a backlit vanity mirror. The bathroom is stocked with body soap, shampoo/conditioner, and luxury towels.

-Guest Access-
The suite offers its own private digital keyless entrance. Included is 1 private parking space as well as free on-street parking. Enjoy your private deck off of the kitchen, including outdoor lighting. In the exterior storage closet, down the entryway steps, you will find a beach cart & chairs to use as a courtesy during your stay.

Perfect location with comforts of home

This studio apartment was more than perfect in every way for our weekend stay in downtown Lewes. We couldn’t be happier with the location. We were a quick walk away from shops, restaurants and the bay. Everything we needed was within walking distance. The apartment was so comfortable from the bed to the couch to the spacious shower. We will definitely be back!

Terrific Studio Stay

Conveniently located studio in downtown Lewes was perfect for a quick getaway. Kitchenette was well stocked as was the rest of the apartment. The bed was very comfortable and the bath and sink areas spa-like. Highly recommend this place and would definitely stay again. Owner and cleaning lady were kind enough (and honest) by letting me know I’d left jewelry behind so I could return and retrieve it.

Second time staying

We love this property’s location! There are so many fantastic walkable restaurants in downtown Lewes. The beach is a short drive, as are numerous other attractions like Big Oyster Brewing. If you want to venture even further to Rehoboth, it’s easy to secure transport via Uber or Lyft. The property is perfect for couples looking to get away for a long weekend! We’ll definitely be staying here again.

Mary is responsive and a great host. The property was very clean and well stocked. It’s a great location! About 15 mins to the main beaches and a block off the main strip of Lewes. Great restaurants just around the corner for romantic meals or dinner with the family. Steps away from grabbing ice cream before heading home each night! Would stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Mary Bueneman

Host profile image
My name is Mary Bueneman. My husband , Marty, and I purchased the "Preservation Forge" @ 114 W. 3rd St. Downtown Historic Lewes, 2 years ago. Our vision was to totally refurbish the building to include a second retail location for our unique Home Interior Store, "Old Wood Delaware", on the first level, and create two upscale Vacation Rental Suites on the second story. After 2 long years, our vision has come to fruition. Our Studio and our Suite may be rented alone or together and accommodates up to 4 persons per unit. Both units are decorated in a coastal contemporary style utilizing Old Wood Delaware resources. We welcome you to come stay for the experience of living an upscaled Old Wood lifestyle.

You can explore the history & charm of the downtown. Then take a short drive to explore Cape Henlopen Park, the Cape May Ferry and multiple attractions not to mention the other beach towns of Rehoboth, Bethany and Ocean City.

We have made every effort to make sure you have all of the luxuries you need for a comfortable, unforgettable stay.
