History and modern living come together at Egglington Hall, a rare estate first built in 1794 and listed on the National Registry of Historic Places. With a beautifully restored Federal-style main home and a thoughtfully designed 2007 contemporary guest house, this property blends timeless architecture with today’s comforts—all on landscaped grounds that can be separated into three distinct lots.

The Main House offers more than 5,500 square feet, 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and seven fireplaces. Highlights include soaring 10-foot ceilings, a dramatic 3-story staircase, and a chef’s kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, center island, and a charming morning room. A main-level bedroom with wheelchair accessibility provides modern convenience, while the second-floor primary suite shines with a spa-like bath, dual vanities, soaking tub, oversized shower, and dual fireplaces. Additional guest rooms, a third-floor retreat, and elegant living and dining spaces round out the residence.

The Guest House, built in 2007, adds 1,600 square feet of flexible living with 3 bedrooms, 1 full bath, an open kitchen and living area, wood flooring throughout, stainless steel appliances, and both front and rear outdoor seating areas—ideal for extended family, visitors, or rental income.

Outdoors, the estate invites you to linger with a koi pond, gardens, outdoor shower, screened kasbah-style dining area, above-ground pool with raised deck, and a pool house that could be finished as an accessory dwelling unit. Solar panels add energy efficiency, while the expansive circular driveway and mature landscaping enhance the grandeur of this unique property.

With its 7 bedrooms, 4.5 baths, multiple living spaces, and 3-lot potential, this home is equally suited as a private family compound, an event venue, a corporate retreat, or an income-producing investment. Just minutes from downtown Milford’s shops and restaurants, Egglington Hall offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Delaware history.
