Rare opportunity on 6.45 sprawling acres in New Castle! Set back on a wooded, semi-private lot, this 5-bedroom, 2-bath home offers 2,252 sq ft of living space and a wonderful chance to put your own stamp on a property with genuine character. Built in 1939, the home features a freshly painted living area with warm, inviting character and hardwood flooring throughout.
Step outside and the real magic of this property comes into focus. Exterior stairs provide convenient second-floor access, while an above-ground pool and wide-open, flat backyard offer plenty of room for entertaining, gardening, or everyday enjoyment. The sheer size of the lot (nearly the size of five football fields) leaves room for nearly anything you can imagine: a garden, a workshop, additional outdoor living space, or simply the privacy of wide-open green space all around you.
Inside, the home's layout offers flexibility for anyone who values extra room to spread out, with 6 bedrooms providing plenty of options for bedrooms, home offices, or hobby space. A lower-level walk-out adds convenient access to the backyard and pool area, making indoor-outdoor living effortless.
Despite its peaceful, wooded setting, this property remains just minutes from New Castle's shopping, schools, and downtown — offering the best of both worlds: rural tranquility with everyday convenience close at hand.
Homes with this much usable land rarely come to market. Bring your vision, your plans, and your imagination, and make 1026 Basilone Dr your own. Schedule your private showing today!
