William Talley House is a historic home located in Brandywine Hundred,[2] unincorporated New Castle County, Delaware,[3] with a Wilmington postal address.[4] It was built about 1770, as a one-room deep, two-room wide fieldstone dwelling. The house has evolved to a 2+1⁄2-story, four-bay, rectangular dwelling with a steep gable roof.
It has two rectangular inside end brick chimneys covered with stucco that project through the gable peak.
The shed-roofed, sun porch addition was built in the 1940s and a saltbox form rear frame addition was built in the 1960s.[5]
It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.[1]
