Practically new, 8BR Dewey Beach home listed for $2.55M

By Jeff Clabaugh

WASHINGTON — A one-year-old, custom-built beach house in Dewey Beach has hit the market for $2.55 million.

The 8-bedroom, 4,900-square-foot home with seven full baths and two half baths is at 109 Chicago Street, two blocks from the beach.

Listing agent Denise Karas, in the Rehoboth office of Long & Foster Real Estate, says the home comes fully furnished, has unique architectural elements, multiple decks and screened-in porches.

“The home offers privacy, yet is just minutes from downtown Dewey Beach, Rehoboth and Lewes, making it ideal for year-round living, as a vacation home or an investment property,” Karas said.

Features include a boardwalk-style walkway, wide plank white oak floors and kitchen tiles imported from Morocco. The kitchen’s 12-foot long center island has a base made of reclaimed wood and a countertop handmade from blue and green recycled glass.

The home also has a full basement — unusual for a home in the area — eight off-street parking spaces and a garage.

The house, which sleeps 18, has an excellent summer rental history, according to Long and Foster.

Massachusetts court hears arguments in lawsuit alleging Meta designed apps to be addictive to kids

By The Associated Press
BOSTON (AP) — Massachusetts' highest court heard oral arguments Friday in the state's lawsuit arguing that Meta designed features on Facebook and Instagram to make them addictive to young users. The lawsuit, filed in 2023 by Attorney General Andrea Campbell, alleges that Meta did this to make a profit and that its actions affected hundreds of thousands of teenagers in Massachusetts who use the social media platforms. “We are making claims based only on the tools that Meta has developed because its own research shows they encourage addiction to the platform in a variety of ways,” said State Solicitor David Kravitz, adding that the state's claim has nothing to do the company's algorithms or failure to moderate content. Meta said Friday that it strongly disagrees with the allegations and is “confident the evidence will show our longstanding commitment to supporting young people.” Its attorney, Mark Mosier, argued in court that the lawsuit “would impose liabilities for performing traditional publishing functions” and that its actions are protected by the First Amendment.
