Robert Ferguson House was a historic home located near Newark, New Castle County, Delaware. The original was built between 1790 and 1810, and formed a two-story, two-bay, single pile frame section. A lower, two-story one-room section was added about 1835 and a one-story, two-bay section was added about 1900. Also on the property was a contributing shed.[2]
