Sudler House is a historic home located in Bridgeville, Sussex County, Delaware. The original section was built about 1750, and is a two-story, six-bay, frame dwelling sheathed in cypress shingles in a vernacular style. The original three-bay section was enlarged during the Federal period. The interior features a gracefully designed staircase with square balusters has an unusual double carved bracket trim and panelled base.[2] Francis Asbury (1745-1816) preached here. The Sudler family owned the property from 1833 to 1971.[3]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.[1]
