About This Home

As of May 2023

East of Rt. 1 - in town Lewes home on the Historic Register and across the street from the canal! Original foundation was built around 1671. The town had about 41 residents at that time. This house was one of the town's first 100 patents. The Orton family resided in the house, and Orton served in the Revolutionary War and was an early pilot. The house stood during the war of 1812. The family donated the lands across the street on the canal to be used for little league fields. This home has been renovated and improved by the current owners. It has the look of a classic colonial home, but upgraded for all current-day conveniences. Offered for use as a primary residence, second home or investment/rental property. Sitting on a quarter acre there is room to add a pool. This property is a must-see for anyone interested in living in town Lewes. Located within walking distance to town shopping, dining, canalfront park and walking or biking distance to Lewes Beach.
