Mullikin’s Delight is a 15.8-acre estate, recognized as the oldest continuously inhabited residence in Prince George’s County, offering over 325 years of history. The main section of the approximately 3,000 square foot home, featuring 3 bedrooms and 3 full baths, was built in 1698, with additions in the 18th and 19th centuries. The home includes wide plank 17th-century heart pine floors and 10-foot high ceilings. The great room features early Americana details, the original wood-burning, brick surround fireplace, and exposed beams. The dining room has space for family gatherings and a second wood-burning fireplace. A main level bedroom with a separate exterior entrance can serve as an au pair suite, in-law suite, guest space, or home office. The kitchen has been modernized with new cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless appliances, a porcelain farm sink, and an island with a propane cooktop. The upper floor features a primary bedroom with a converted walk-in closet and an en-suite bathroom with a double vanity, soaking tub, and a walk-in tiled shower. An additional bedroom is located on the second level with an adjacent full bath. The roof was recently replaced with composite slate shingles.
