About This Home

Step into the heart of Worcester County’s rich heritage with the Fassitt House, the oldest continuously inhabited home in its original condition. This remarkable property, a proud member of the National Register of Historic Places, was built in 1730 and showcases the timeless beauty of Georgian architecture. The home’s iconic Flemish Bond brick checkerboard pattern is a testament to craftsmanship from an era long past. This property comes with 29 years of permitted use remaining of a 45' dock at the marina adjacent to the property.
Inside, the residence retains its original character, with stunning hand-carved raised panel wainscoting and intricate trimwork, along with plank floors and ceilings that tell stories of centuries gone by. The formal dining room is a standout feature, boasting the original woodwork and a unique corner cabinet from the historic Riddle Farm. The stairway, thoughtfully upgraded in the late 1700s, now features Federal Style embellishments and a beautifully hand-carved railing and newel post—design elements also found in the celebrated Henry’s Grove, another cherished historic home just down the 611 corridor.
This home’s connection to history is profound. It stands proudly on Sinepuxent Bay, where it endured a cannonball strike during the War of 1812—a vivid reminder of the turbulent times it has weathered. For nearly 300 years, the Fassitt House has been home to the same family, an enduring legacy of tradition and preservation. A major renovation in 1950 ensured the home’s survival, with care taken to maintain its historic integrity. The addition of a “modern” kitchen at the time has since become historic in its own right, seamlessly blending the old with the new.
The 50-acre property also houses two original outbuildings—a smokehouse and a corncrib—that further enrich the home’s legacy. The Fassitt House is not just a home; it is a living piece of history, and this is a rare and significant opportunity to own a piece of Worcester County's past.
