Property Description

Welcome to 136 Washington! This home has a lot of history! Built in the 1800's “The Polk Henry House” AKA “The Pichette Playhouse” and at one point in time was apartment housing for soldiers in WWII . It even was a brothel! More recently the DCFD bought the property to put their new Fire House. Delaware City and its residents fought to keep this historic building and gave the DCFD the property they have now on Rt 9. Since then it has changed hands multiple times waiting for the right craftsman to bring it into the 21st century, while keeping the Historical details! The original sqft was approx 5500. It was subdivided into 2 units in 2022. The front unit (this one) with 3351sqft and the back unit (which is also listed for sale) with 2148sqft. As you enter through the front porch you will open 9ft tall doors and are greeted by an beautiful staircase that you can look and see up 3 stories. This 1st level has 10 foot ceilings. The second level has 9 foot ceilings and the 3rd level has 8 foot ceilings. To your right is an enormous eat in Kitchen. Big enough to put a decent size table. Granite countertops, large island. 42 inch solid wood cabinets. With both soft close drawers and doors. At the back of the kitchen there is a door. Once opened you will be in a kitchen pantry that is 9ft long by 3 ft deep giving you a ton of storage for all your needs. Off the right side of the kitchen is your side exit. This exterior door leads to your side porch and driveway. In the foyer is 2 more doors one is the main level half bath and the other is access to the basement. In the 1800's all basements were dirt floors. The contractor was able to pour a concrete floor to make the space more up to date and great for storage. When you go down you will be able to se the original stone foundation! To the left of the foyer lies your living space. Exact mirror size of the kitchen! Its enormous! Beyond the living space is a sitting area/breakfast room which has a exit to your rear patio. You will notice the many large windows on this level left in a ton of natural light. Every room also has it own recessed lighting allowing full control of your environment! When you head to the second floor. You will find the primary bedroom the 2nd bedroom & the laundry room. Both bedrooms have a private bath and walk in closets, and again lots of windows to bring in the natural light. In the laundry room there is a closet that hold your homes tankless hot water heater! Always making sure you never run out of hot water! When you arrive on the 3rd floor you will find the 3rd and 4th bedrooms, your 3rd full bath and a rec-room/living area. (the same size as your kitchen) You really have to see it for yourself! And YES! The open yard out the back door is part of your property! If you can not get an appointment feel free to stop by Sunday from 12:00 - 2:00. You will be able to see the back unit as well! SHOWINGS START FRIDAY 3/28 @ 4:00
