Build your dream home on this beautiful 5.2-acre homesite in Dragon Run Ridge, one of southeast New Castle County's premier private, custom-home communities. The largest of the 4 lots in this community, this partially wooded lot offers a generous cleared building area alongside mature woodland that provides natural privacy, room for trails, and a peaceful backdrop for the home you've always wanted to build. Best of all, there's no builder tie-in — bring your own builder or select from the community's approved builders for a truly custom result. Public water, electricity, and gas are available at the street. Homes in this enclave must be a minimum of 3,000 square feet total, with at least 2,500 square feet above grade, ensuring a community of substantial, well-built homes and protecting your investment for years to come. Dragon Run Ridge sits just minutes from Route 1 and Route 13, making for an easy commute in any direction, while still offering the quiet, tucked-away feel of acreage living. The neighborhood is surrounded by high-value homes, including nearby Red Lion Chase — a testament to the caliber of this pocket of Bear. With few large, wooded homesites like this remaining in the area, this is a rare opportunity to secure over five acres and build exactly the home you envision, on your own timeline.
