WELCOME TO PENN ACRES, a highly desirable community in the heart of New Castle. The design of this 4BR/2.1 bath split level home offers generous living spaces on 4 levels AND is located on one of the largest lots in the subdivision (.42 acres). From the beautiful ceramic tiled foyer/entryway, the freshly painted main living area is just a few steps up. The focal point of the room is an electric fireplace, flanked by lovely built-in bookcases and cabinets. A large triple window provides great light. The dining room, with hardwood floors, offers an open flow to the kitchen, updated with Corian counters, hardwood floors, stainless steel appliances, track lighting, eating counter and stools, under cabinet lighting, built-in wine rack, and ceiling fan. A large casement window provides light and a great view of the expansive back yard. The next level has 3 generous bedrooms each with ceiling fans and hardwood floors. There is a full bath with vanity, stall shower and tile floor. The 4th level offers the privacy of a large master bedroom with a ceiling fan, full bath with shower/tub, updated vanity and tile floor. Storage space is found behind one of the walls. From the foyer again, a hallway leads to a main level powder room. The open back hall leads down several steps to the lower finished level, providing space for an office, home gym, play room or whatever you have in mind. A door from there leads to the adjoining basement area, with laundry and work bench. The very end of the foyer leads through a door to a spacious 17'X14' three season porch with laminate floor, ceiling fan, roll-down blinds and wonderful sliding windows with screens. An extra wide 12' gate provides easy access to the private, fenced, level, back yard, planted with a wonderful variety of mature plantings including hydrangeas, azaleas, peonies, daffodils, lavender, mint, ferns, hosta and more.
