Property Description
Magnificent Van Leuvenigh House overlooking The Battery in Old New Castle dates to 1732 and was an important rest stop during the Revolutionary War. Previously a bed & breakfast, it was renovated into a spacious single-family home with respect & care to maintain & preserve the architectural features that make it special. Improvements include an eat-in gourmet kitchen that spans a large portion of the back of the house and overlooks a courtyard kitchen garden, a master suite with huge bedroom featuring one of 4 working fireplaces, twin dressing rooms with walk-in closets and a large marble bath w/double sinks & whirpool tub, an enlarged family room w/original walk-in fireplace thought to date to the late 1600s, a side porch overlooking The Battery & lovely gardens with curved stone paths & a delightful Victorian playhouse tucked into the corner. Convenient off-street parking, updated systems, security system & more enhance this incredible property.
