This 200 year old home is well maintained, blending the charm and character of a historic residence with modern conveniences. You will find tall ceilings, original wood floors, mouldings and deep woodwork as you enter. A parlor, a living room with a huge fireplace surrounded by built-in cabinetry/entertainment center, a step down dining room with a sunny bay window, and a modern, efficient kitchen with custom copper counters and stainless appliances complete the first floor. The master bedroom consists of an en-suite walk-in closet, convenient laundry with stacked washer/dryer, and huge bath with double sinks and glass enclosed shower. An office/study or nursery and a second bath comprise the second floor. Three bedrooms and a half bath are located on the third floor. Efficient gas hot water heat and ductless mini splits provide year round comfort. A brick patio for entertaining graces the beautifully landscaped garden. An underground watering system makes maintaining the grass and flowers a breeze on warm, summer days. The Read House Museum and Gardens is just 2 doors away. The wharf, and often, the tall ship Kalmar Nyckel is located at the entrance to Battery Park, just a short stroll to the end of the block. Dining and shopping are just steps away, public transportation is a short walk through town. A farmer’s market and interesting vendors are found on Market Square in the center of the historic district on Saturday during warmer months of the year. New Castle is just a half hour from Philadelphia International Airport, a little further is Philadelphia, and a 2 hour drive takes you to New York, Washington, DC or Baltimore, MD.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
