The exact level range it's viable depends a bit on gear and know-how. 55 might be slightly low, but if you get some buffs you could try it out. You can also lure a rogue friend up there (they can sneak past everything) to help out.

As for directions, head straight into CE, into the back room, then take a left, follow the hall and take another left up the stairs, through a door, then up more stairs again. There will be a golem on the stairs you'll have to invis/flop past. Eventually you'll hit a corner with a hallway to the right, a pather, and a couple mobs in side rooms, leading out to a balcony. You can either methodically take the mobs between you and the balcony face tanking, or preferably invis/flop over to the far side of the balcony and clear from there. There's 2 pathers you'll mostly face tank, then the balcony is opened up for kiting. From there you just pull to the balcony, and you're golden. Nameds are the only annoying bit. You'll want a decent mana pool/clickies to power through those. Wall heals are also a thing, but generally on the balcony you won't have to deal with those, esp. after you break in.

The kiting area is the right side of "Castle Middle" on the The Hole map on the wiki. You'll also pull from "Castle Top" area as well.

Tip: You can get hit with a C from CE if you stand on the edge of the balcony.

It's a methodical break, but very relaxing once you crack it.
