Since the 1700's, this member of the National Registry of Historic Places has witnessed the evolution of DE's First Town from its premier vantage point along the Lewes-Rehoboth Canal. Since the time of its original owner, Cornelius Wiltbank (centuries ago), home has evolved w/our vibrant town yet kept innate character. Today it's "twice as nice" with 5BR, 3.5 BA total, configured as 2 separate/fully functional residential units in the Lewes Historic District (one 3BR, 2BA; other is 2BR, 1.5BA). Enjoy one; rent the other - or create the ideal family living scenario! Home exudes authentic charm w/hardwoods, exposed wood beams, recently updated kitchen on the 1st floor, finished 3rd floor attic/loft space. Separate carriage house offers more storage nestled in charming landscaped yard. Park 4-5 cars in the driveway, walk/bike to town & take part in the ongoing historical Lewes story!
