John and Elizabeth Shaw Sundy House, Historic house in Delray Beach, Florida, US.

The John and Elizabeth Shaw Sundy House is a two-story, seven-room house at 106 South Swinton Avenue, built in 1902 by contractor Henry T. Grant on a brick pier foundation. Its frame construction uses Georgia pine, and it is the only known Queen Anne-style home left in Delray Beach. It now operates as a hotel and restaurant.

John Sundy hired local contractor Henry T. Grant to build the house at 106 South Swinton Avenue in 1902; the architect is unknown. Georgia pine was shipped in via the nearby Florida East Coast Railway station. The Tropic Sun called it "one of the finest between West Palm Beach and Miami." The Sundys lived there until their deaths in 1947 and 1952, relatives stayed until 1990, and it joined the National Register on January 16, 1992.

The house carries the names of John and Elizabeth Shaw Sundy, who moved to Delray Beach in 1899. Elizabeth helped found the town's first library and schools in 1911, chartered a church in 1912, and served as a teacher and school board chairperson. John worked on Henry Flagler's Florida East Coast Railway, served eight one-year terms as the town's first mayor between 1911 and 1925, became a municipal judge in 1926, and founded the Sundy Feed & Fertilizer Company in 1913.

The building sits in central Delray Beach and welcomes visitors through its restaurant, giving you access to explore the rooms. Plan your visit during restaurant hours since entry depends on dining or being a guest on the property.

What sets this house apart is that it operates as a functioning restaurant, meaning you see its interior as it is actually used today. Most historic homes are frozen as museums, but this one remains part of daily community life.
