Welcome to the historic Corbit-Kabis house, a timeless gem nestled in the National Historic District of Odessa Village. Dating back to the 1700s, this distinguished residence blends old-world charm with modern comforts...flawlessly! Located just a stone's throw away from Wilmington and Dover, and nestled beside The Historic Houses of Odessa, this property sits conveniently near Route 1. Set on approximately 1-acre of lush, treed land, the estate comprises the main house, a charming smokehouse, an ice house, and an Amish-built two-car garage with a spacious workshop and full attic. Inside the main house, character abounds with two fireplaces, gleaming hardwood floors, and a grand staircase spanning three stories. The generously sized rooms feature high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows, with a layout that's been meticulously restored, including updates to the roof, chimneys, furnace, and exterior paint. On the first floor, an inviting entry hall leads to a cozy study with built-in shelving, a full bathroom, and a stunning spare room (6th bedroom/den/office) flooded with natural light and featuring original hardwood floors. The renovated kitchen (offering stainless steel appliances, white cabinetry, large pantry & quartz countertops) and living room provide ample space for gatherings, while a convenient powder room completes the floor. Retreat to the enclosed porch with its brick floor for a tranquil escape, or explore the original "kitchen"/family room from the early 1700s, showcasing exposed beaded beams and an open-hearth fireplace. Upstairs, the spacious second floor boasts four large bedrooms, two full baths, and an additional (5th) bedroom through the family room staircase. The semi-finished third floor offers extra living space with four rooms, plenty of storage, and stunning views of the landscape. Immerse yourself in the blend of yesteryear's allure and modern comforts in this exceptional residence, where every corner echoes centuries of history. Schedule your tour today!
