Bradford-Loockerman House, also known as the Loockerman House, is a historic home located at Dover, Kent County, Delaware. The house is in two sections; one of brick and one frame. The original section dates from 1742 and is a 2 1/2-story, brick, nearly square five bay structure in a First Period English(late-Medieval) / early-Georgian style. Attached is a substantial later frame addition. It fronts directly on the sidewalk with no front dooryard, but has a large and very handsome garden behind the main house and on its south side.[2]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1972.[1] It is located in the Dover Green Historic District.
