About this home
Welcome to the Van Leuvenigh house, one of the premier historic properties in Old New Castle. What makes this home unique are it's location, size, condition and upgrades. Situated along the banks of the Delaware River, this home has wonderful views of the Delaware River and Battery Park. Close enough to the river to watch the ships pass by, but you are far enough away that flood insurance is not required. You have a front row seat for the summer concerts, fireworks on Separation Day and the annual art show on Battery Park. You can walk to the restaurants, shops, museums, and other attractions that New Castle has to offer. With over 4,000 sq ft of living space this home has very generous sized rooms giving you a luxurious feeling. The structure maintains many of the original features including, doors, hardware, woodwork, wood floors, fireplaces, high ceilings, crown moldings and more. The current owners have been great stewards of the house and have made large investments to insure the house will last long into the future. They received the 2022 Bamberger Historic Preservation Award from the New Castle Historical Society for their efforts. Improvements made during the last 6 years include a custom Giorgi kitchen, renovated primary bathroom, addition of the screened porch and terrace above, complete landscaping of the yard, HVAC replacements, electrical upgrades, living room wood burning fireplace rehabilitated, installation of a direct vent gas fireplace in the dining room, stucco replacement, chimney brick repointing and the list goes on and on. The pictures do not do justice to the beauty of this significant historic home. Do yourself a favor and schedule a time to tour this magnigicent property....
