Experience timeless elegance & stunning river views from the comfort of your own home ***13 The Strand-an extraordinary historic home nestled along one of Historic New Castle's most iconic and scenic streets! This beautifully updated residence offers the perfect blend of 19th-century charm with thoughtful modern upgrades *** including a new High Efficiency Gas Combi Boiler & Tankless Water heater. High ceilings, original wide plank floors, & historical architectural details are found throughout. Enter an elegant front foyer to a spacious living room which flows seamlessly into the formal dining room. Next is the Gourmet Chef's Kitchen (a true showstopper) with granite countertops, a spacious island, maple & cherry cabinets. Its sitting area has a PANORAMIC wall of windows with stunning views of the garden & the Delaware River. The 2nd-floor Primary Suite features high ceilings, ample built-in storage, and a decorative fireplace. The spa-like bathroom is complete with ceramic tile walk-in shower, soaking tub, a custom-built vanity with granite counter tops, and plenty of storage. Also on the 2nd level is a library/office with a full wall of river-facing windows. The 3rd floor offers two additional bedrooms, a shared full bath, and cedar closet. The garden level en-suite features built-in wood shelving and a full bath with a step-in shower. The en-suite extends to the adjacent room which features original deep-silled windows and shutters set into a stone wall, and antique brick flooring. Off the brick patio a winding path leads you through three garden "rooms" with shrubs and perennials, many native to the Mid-Atlantic region. At river's edge mature plantings surround a bluestone dining patio, providing a private space to enjoy river views. Walk down The Strand for easy access to New Castle's historic museums, William Penn's historical plaque and statue, the First State National Historical Park's Welcome Center, and many restaurants and shops. Delaware's Tall Ship the Kalmar Nyckel docks at the nearby wharf in season, and the Battery Park Trail wends from there south along the river. Community-organized events such as May Market, A Day in Old New Castle, Separation Day, and Spirit of Christmas provide numerous ways to explore and participate in celebrating the town. This is a truly unique opportunity to own a piece of Delaware's history-with views, space, and a setting that's simply unmatched.
