Interested in becoming Joe and Jill Biden’s next neighbor? Realtor.com’s listing details an 8,700 square foot property complete with a movie room, gym area, and four-car garage. Chandeliers hang from the ceilings and the kitchen boasts glistening, marble-topped counters. All you’ll need to scoop it away from the New Yorkers New Jerseyans who are already taking tours of the property (according to realtor Michael Kelczewski, who spoke to The New York Post) is the modicum sum of $2.39 million. Yes, you’ll need more than pennies to be Joe Biden’s neighbor. For perspective, however, you’d need nearly double ($3.9 million) to live in Montecito, California (via Zillow), where maybe you’d run into former British royals, or celebs like Oprah, or anybody else that only needs one name to get by in life.
Yes, but are there any cons to moving in next to President Joe Biden? “I’ve spoken to neighbors, and the only issue with that is there are occasionally unannounced transits where they shut down everything and you can’t leave the property, so I can see that being somewhat of an encumbrance,” Kelczewski told The New York Post. “But I think [the proximity to President Biden] is a selling point.”
Here’s How Much It Really Costs To Be Joe Biden’s Neighbor

Buy the property and The Bidens aren’t the only famous people you might bump into on a picturesque New England sidewalk. Wilmington can’t boast the star power of, say, Montecito, but actress Aubrey Plaza grew up in the town. Then again, Plaza once told Stephen Colbert that “really, [the city’s] more like a tiny little ‘dink,’” (via Delaware Today).
“Dink” or not, Wilmington, Delaware was where Biden grew up, running around in forests with his sister, experiencing the wonders of air conditioning for the first time in a local supermarket, and hand-painting his high school’s wrought iron fences (via GQ). Now, if you’ve got the cash, you can experience the magic of Wilmington, Delaware, too.
