Property Description
Harmony House - This prime historic residence in New Castle stands out as one of the most desirable homes in one of the most sought-after neighborhoods in Delaware. The property has been occupied since the founding of the town in the 1650's, and foundations of earlier homes may have been used when the first section of the late Federal, brick, 2 1/2 story, double parlor, side hall house was built. The Janvier family purchased the home in 1843 and resided here for over 140 years. A complete restoration of the inter and exterior has been performed. All roofs have been replaced, the entire brick house has been repointed, chimney exteriors repaired and new copper guttering installed. Inside is a beautiful, comfortable living area with a flexible floorplan. The front room can be used as a double parlor or a living room and dining room combination. The current dining room with gas fireplace could be the family room. A new sunroom has been added on the first floor that overlooks the beautiful gardens and adds to the flow of the first floor. The gourmet kitchen and powder room complete the first floor. Off the kitchen is the old summer kitchen with cooking fireplace. Upstairs are 4 bedrooms and an office or 5 bedrooms, 2 full baths and a large laundry room. All of the hardwood floors have been refinished, plaster walls skim coated and painted, crown molding restored and over 90% of the hardware thru out the house is original. Outside is a spacious, landscaped garden surrounded by a brick wall and a large brick patio. This home is located just off The Green and features views of the Academy building and Immanuel church steeple. Just a short walk from the Delaware River, Battery Park, shops and restaurants.
