Travel back in time without sacrificing modern luxury at 246 Delancey Street, a pristine, thoughtfully designed 4 bedroom 2.5 bath home on one of Philadelphia's most picturesque and coveted blocks. Built circa 1767 by Joseph Wetherill, son of Christpher and Mary (Stockton) Wetherill and said to be the nephew of Richard Stockton, signer of the Declaration of Independence, this residence is proudly listed on the Philadelphia Register of Historic Places. A remarkable property for history lovers! Today, its random-width hardwood floors, preserved architectural details and lush garden are paired with tasteful modern updates offering a rare blend of colonial charm and contemporary comfort. The main level is filled with natural light and features a spacious open floor plan with refinished hardwood floors, recessed lighting, elegant wainscoting, and a fireplace that serves as the focal point of the living space. The dedicated dining area connects to a fully equipped kitchen offering abundant cabinetry, a sleek range hood, under-cabinet lighting, a tile backsplash, and a breakfast bar with pendant lighting—ideal for both everyday use and entertaining.

The second level boasts a large sunlit primary bedroom with a ceiling fan, good closet space and recessed lighting, along with an ensuite bath featuring a dual vanity and a spa-like shower. A second spacious bedroom, a full bath with a tub/shower combo, and a conveniently located laundry closet complete this floor.
