Want to Be Joe Biden’s Delaware Neighbor? Now’s Your Chance…But it Will Cost You

The perfect opportunity for you to be neighbors with President Joe Biden and First Lady Dr. Jill Biden has opened up. As long as you have a few spare million lying around somewhere so you can purchase his beautiful mansion owned by his next-door neighbor in Wilmington, Delaware.

And if you’re a person who requires a great deal of space, well, the more’s the better. The mansion is a sprawling 8,700 square feet with 5 bedrooms and 51/2 baths and it could be yours for the asking price of $2,390,000. Or if you’d prefer, you could pay the estimated mortgage price of $9,576 per month with a 20 percent downpayment, Mediaite reports.

If you are looking for pricey new digs, here’s a few more features of this lovely home, according to realtor Michael Kelczewski:

“Located in the heart of Chateau Country, a French Provincial masterpiece is offered. Situated on 1.97 verdant acres, Joe Marra, one of Delaware’s premier builders designed his personal dream home. The grand property was subsequently upgraded by a new owner. After entering a secluded gated driveway, observe an immense structure boasting a total of 8700 Sqft. of living area. Walk through large European-inspired doors to enter the expansive foyer, one notices beaming Brazilian Cherry hardwoods throughout, Trey ceilings and wainscotting. A marble mantle-enclosed fireplace provides ambiance when hosting guests in the adjacent formal dining room. Cathedral ceilings await one after a long day easily forgotten when relaxing inside the great room. Abundant natural light emanates around the living areas. A first-floor primary bedroom benefits those seeking main floor living. Connected to the first-floor primary bedroom is a large walk-in closet and professional office. Feeling inspired to prepare chef inspired home meals or hosting? You will easily find the French Country inspired kitchen’s commercial grade appliances suitable. Venturing off the kitchen a Florida room creates the perfect area to enjoy prepared hors d’ oeuvres. Ascending sweeping staircases, tropical hardwoods cover the enter upper level. On the second floor one finds, a full en-suite Princess suite, completed by walk-in closet and tiled bathroom. Each bedroom benefits from attached en suite bathrooms. Above the garage is a hobby/playroom. Descending into the lower level find a complete wet bar, upgraded Movie Room & large windows offering fresh air and light into a gym area. Only minutes to Downtown Wilmington made famous by Delaware’s own Joe Biden. Quick access to major routes of transportation leading to Philly, NYC, D.C., or beyond.”

If you’re not familiar with Wainscotting it’s simply means paneling along the bottom half of a wall. A Trey ceiling is a ceiling that looks much like “a large upside-down tray set into a ceiling.”

So now you know. And the Bidens’ abode, at 6,850 square feet is a mite smaller but imagine being able to discuss the small, everyday things with President Joe. You could ask him about his Israel policy or what kind of roses they plan on planting this year. Just like that. No big deal.

There is one minor inconvenience that comes along with being the neighbor of a president, Kelczewski told The New York Post:

“I’ve spoken to neighbors, and the only issue with that is there are occasionally unannounced transits where they shut down everything and you can’t leave the property, so I can see that being somewhat of an encumbrance,” he said. “But I think [the proximity to President Biden] is a selling point.”

I think this mansion is lovely, but I’m more the Frank Lloyd Wright type, even though I’ll never be able to afford that, or this mansion so I’ve now officially bummed myself out.
