Milford
$399,990
Address: 112 N. Front St., Milford Bedrooms, Baths: 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths Square Footage: 5,310 square feet Lot Size: 18,061 square feet
The word “mansion” gets thrown around a lot these days, usually with a sneering “Mc” in front. But with more than 5,000 square feet of space, intricately milled hardwood floors, original fixtures and expansive formal spaces (it even has its own speakeasy-like full bar), the home known as the Marshall House fully embraces the “M” word, wearing its big, brash Victorian touches proudly. Extra bonus: The property overlooks the Mispillion Riverwalk.

Curb appeal? Check. Wraparound porch? Check. Historic details with modern updates? You guessed it. This standout property on Dover’s historic State Street dazzles with an open-concept kitchen and family room unheard of when the home was built in 1928 but highly desirable today. The master bedroom includes its own loft space for an office, media room or private getaway.
