Description

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! with direct access to the delaware river, this beautifully updated residence offers the perfect blend of 19th-century charm with thoughtful modern upgrades.
inside, you’ll find soaring high ceilings, original wide plank floors, & historical architectural details throughout. off the elegant front hallway is a spacious living room which flows seamlessly into the formal dining room, and at the end of the hallway is the chef’s kitchen, a true showstopper. its panoramic wall of windows and sitting area overlook a stunning garden and the delaware river. in addition to granite countertops, a spacious island, and maple and cherry cabinets, it has a heated porcelain tile floor. a spiral metal staircase gives access to the backyard with its two patios and the garden.
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 den/library/office with a full wall of river-facing windows. oh, such views!!
the 3rd floor offers two additional bedrooms, a shared full bath, and cedar closet. the warm patina of the original wide plank flooring glows throughout this level & the 1st and 2nd levels as well.
the stunning garden level en-suite adds approx. 525 sq. ft. of finished living space, features built-in wood shelving, a heated terracotta tile floor, and a full bath with a step-install shower. the en-suite extends to the adjacent room which features antique brick flooring, original deep sill windows, stone wall, and shutters.
off the brick patio a winding path leads you through three garden “rooms” to the river. you’ll pass under wisteria vines, along shrubs and perennials native to the area, terminating in a “room” with mature plantings surrounding a bluestone dining patio. the garden’s design provides a blooming season that extends from late winter into the late fall, during which time birds and butterflies abound.
step out of the house for easy access to the commemorative plaque of william penn’s arrival in the new world, new castle’s riverfront, where delaware’s tall ship the kalmar nyckel docks in season, and the battery park trail that wends south along the river. be sure to explore new castle’s historic museums and the first state national historical park’s welcome center and visit its restaurants and shops.
nearby, the markell trail extends between historic new castle and the wilmington riverfront. wilmington is home to a variety of cultural attractions with its airport less than 5 miles away from new castle!
this is a truly unique opportunity to own a piece of delaware’s history—with views, space, and a setting that’s simply unmatched.
