Property Description
RARE OPPORTUNITY TO OWN THE HISTORIC ROSEDALE FARM. Situated on over 19.6 Acres, this estate includes 2 homes, scenic farmland, 3 working paddocks, an 18-Stall Training Barn, an 8-stall Broodmare Barn & a Storage Barn large enough to store 10,000 bales of hay. It also boasts 2 large fields with run-in sheds & water to each. The property comes with many fascinating memories, as it was once owned by the DuPont family & home to Kelso, the famous thoroughbred racehorse, in the 1950s. The main home, built in the 1700s, is on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. Several additions were made over the years to the now 5,200 sq. ft. home. With 7-Bedrooms, 5-Bathrooms & many unique features – this home is truly one-of-a-kind. The first level includes a formal living room, family room, dining room, den, laundry room, kitchen, “ballroom” entertainment space, 1st floor master suite & an in-law suite. The in-law suite features 2 bedrooms, a living room & a private full bath. The ballroom boasts a huge wet bar & a pool table, a wonderful area to entertain! The kitchen features a commercial-grade VULCAN STOVE, Bosch Dishwasher & has its own exterior entrance. The upper level of the home is where you will find 2 more full bathrooms & 4 more bedrooms, all with hardwood floors throughout. Chamber stairs lead from the upper level to the floored attic & cedar closet, for storage space. The main home also boasts 2 basements & an enclosed 20x21 slate stone patio. Some original antique fixtures & hardware can still be found throughout, bringing much character to this home. Head down the driveway to find the Carriage House, a separate 2-Bedroom, 2-Bathroom Ranch, currently being used as a rental property. The Carriage House features a living room, dining room, kitchen, & covered front porch. Other notable aspects include: NEW WATER CONDITIONING SYSTEM (2021), NEW WELL PUMP & EXPANSION TANK for Carriage House (2021), NEWER ROOF on main house (2018), & NEW ROOF on barn labeled “Office” (2020). Natural gas & public water are both available to the property if you wish to connect service. Previously used as an operational thoroughbred training facility, you have everything you need here to continue that legacy. This property is currently a registered farm, known as “Marydel Hunt”, with the Delaware Certified Thoroughbred Program. There's a great opportunity for recurring revenue here via horse boarding and/or training, in addition to rental income. Located in Middletown, within the desirable Appoquinimink School District. This beautiful estate is not to be missed, schedule your tour today!
