Ivyside Farm is a historic home and farm located at Claymont, New Castle County, Delaware. It was built in three sections with the earliest dated to about 1795. The earliest section is a 2+1⁄2-story, two-bay, single pile structure built of Brandywine granite. The second section was constructed in 1853, and is a two-story, three-bay, side-hall, double pile structure of Brandywine granite. It is in the Greek Revival style. In 1907, a two-story, gabled, shingle-sided section was added to the 1795 original structure and a two-story frame addition was built on the second section. Also on the property are a contributing large frame barn, wagon or carriage house, a corncrib and a chicken house.[2]
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1]
