YES, at $215,000, you can move into the Heart of the Region's Most Charming and Historic Riverfront Town, and this lovely, renovated 19th Century porch front home. It truly offers an incredible opportunity in its price range, having enjoyed extensive renovations while maintaining period features. And it is NOT situated in the flood plain. The freshly painted, lightened and brightened formal living room is large and deep, offering a built-in bookcase and a coat closet. The spacious dining room opens to a cheery, fabulous kitchen that was part of a two-story 2007 addition to the home. It offers extensive bright Corian counters, banks of beautiful cherry honeywood cabinetry, a five-burner gas cook top with a designer bisque hood, imported tile back splashes and wall ovens. Windows on two exposures bring in natural light and pendants highlight the sink and counters. There's a breakfast bar for dining and access to the deep rear garden. A pocket door at the kitchen's entrance opens to a convenient first floor powder room. The upper level hosts three bedrooms (two good sized, one smaller and perhaps perfect as an office or nursery ) and a beautiful bath with a seated two-person walk-in shower. The roomy master bedroom enjoys privacy in the back of the home, where it houses the laundry center. Double doors with sidelights open to a private, screened in porch. What a lovely spot to relax, surrounded by nature and gardens. This historic home, its original part harking to the 19th Century, offers original old growth Heart Pine wood floors, chair rails and ceiling fans. It has central air conditioning, economical gas heat, an attic and a basement. From the welcoming front porch to the second floor private one, this is one charming, comfortable home! It's been well maintained, with records, plans, invoices and warranty information available for review. Major systems, roof, baths, master with porch and kitchen date to 2007. All this, priced for today's market in a lively city with a great sense of community! . Enjoy excellent city services, shops, museums, eateries, Battery Park and a new pier! Historic New Castle offers a lifestyle, with year-round celebrations, block parties, summer concerts and so much more! Located a few miles southwest of the Delaware Memorial Bridge along the banks of the river, New Castle is fifteen minutes from an Amtrak platform and half-an-hour from an international airport. Don't delay to schedule your visit and make this lovely home yours!
