Dr. John R. Sudler House, North Main Street, Bridgeville, Sussex County, DE

description

Summary

Significance: The Sudler House, the oldest known house in Bridgeville, bears the name of Dr. John R. Sudler, a successful physician and farmer, who purchased the property in 1833. The original three-bay, hall-and-parlor section of this shingled house was constructed about 1750. Its floor plan, featuring an exterior end chimney and an interior corner chimney, is very unusual in North West Fork Hundred. The house was enlarged during the Federal period to its present six-bay facade. Its fine interior decorative features include a delicately carved wooden swag cornice in a second-story bedroom and a panelled staircase. The only known brick ice house in the hundred is located on the property.
