About this home

Historic presence, bold scale, and the kind of opportunity that rarely comes along, this standout New Castle property delivers it all. Built in 1847 by Mason Livezey for the Eli Murphy family, this two-story structure offers over 4,100 square feet and sits on a hard to find 0.75 acre lot right in the heart of town. From the moment you arrive, the architectural character makes an impression-timeless, substantial, and ready for its next chapter. The heavy lifting has already been done, giving you a strong head start. All five chimneys have been completely rebuilt, a new roof with slate look shingles adds both durability and style, and fresh interior and exterior paint create a clean, refreshed feel throughout. New flooring has been installed, along with new shutters and soffit, while the columns have been reworked to ensure long-term structural integrity, preserving the look while strengthening the foundation for what comes next. And then there’s the feature that truly sets this property apart, its dedicated parking lot. In a downtown setting where parking is often limited, this is a rare and valuable asset that adds everyday convenience and long-term appeal. With its size, history, and extensive updates already in place, this property offers the kind of flexibility and presence that invites creativity. Whether you're envisioning a residential restoration, a business venture, or a blend of both, this is a space with stories behind it, and plenty more waiting to be written.
