Own a Piece of Newtown History! Nestled on the historic grounds of Castle Ronald, 7 Old Castle Drive offers a rare opportunity to live where legacy meets charm. In 1888, Peter Lorillard Ronald built a grand castle atop Castle Hill to honor his Scottish heritage. Known for its striking 110-foot central section and elegant drive-through carriageway, Castle Ronald was once a defining landmark of the area. From its 60-foot-high turret, you could see all the way to the Long Island Sound on a clear day.
