About This Home
Charming Antique Colonial in the Heart of Downtown Dover
Welcome to 29 Durrell Street — a beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath antique Colonial, just two blocks from Main Street and Broadway. Built in 1850 and thoughtfully updated, this 1,422 sq ft home blends historic character with modern comfort.
Step inside to find wide plank hardwood floors, a cozy wood-burning stove, and a bright sunroom bonus space perfect for an office, playroom, or reading nook. The updated eat-in kitchen and baths provide modern convenience while preserving the home’s timeless appeal. Other recent updates include new boiler, hot water heater, washer and dryer.
The two larger bedrooms each feature large walk-in closets — a rare find in a home of this era — and there’s no shortage of storage with a full basement, walk-up attic, and three garden sheds.
Out back, you'll find a fully fenced yard with a lush English garden — a private oasis rarely found in downtown. Whether you're hosting guests or enjoying a quiet evening outdoors, this yard is something special.
All this in a quiet residential neighborhood just steps to Dover’s vibrant restaurants, shops, and amenities. A unique opportunity to own a piece of history with all the conveniences of modern living.
