Property details
About 604 2nd St
Welcome to 604 2nd ST! 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 back unit (this one) with 2148sqft and the front unit (which is also listed for sale) with 3351sqft. As you enter from the porch off the driveway. You are greeted by the staircase that will take you to the 2nd and 3rd levels. To the left a hall the leads to the dining room and to the right the kitchen. Fear not! Either way you go will lead you around to the open floor plan. The generous sized kitchen has plenty of counter space. Granite countertops, 42inch solid wood cabinets with both soft close drawers & doors! The open floor plan allows you to flow effortlessly through the dining and living area. The large windows allow plenty of natural light, and the double doors open to an expansive patio that overlooks the rest of your property! This main level also holds a half bath and a closet with your tankless hot water heater! Which will insure you never run out of hot water! When you venture to the 2nd floor that is where you will find the primary bedroom and on-suite! This includes your glass walk-in shower, multiple closets and a laundry room so you do not have to bring the clothes downstairs! Continue up and you will find a hall that contains the 2nd and 3rd Bedrooms in between the two a Jack & Jill bath. You should come see it for yourself! And YES!
