About This Home

As of April 2016

Experience the fantastic walkability of Downtown West Chester at this 3BR/1.5BA residence located in the heart of the Borough. With its own driveway, finding a place to park in this coveted area of living is no longer a problem, with favored restaurants & shops just a few steps away. In keeping with its enviable location, the interior of this residence is entirely move-in ready, neutrally styled, fitted with central air, a brand new custom kitchen, & fenced in yard! The main level features wonderfully sun-lit rooms, designed to create a welcoming flow to the house, with hardwood flooring, & tall ceilings throughout. The living & dining rooms are spaciously designed with built-in cabinetry offering many options for stylish displays or storage. Continuing through the main level, the striking, custom-built gourmet kitchen, presents a top-of-the-line environment to cook, with hand crafted cabinets, granite countertops, & stainless-steel appliances, including a state-of-the-art Samsung refrigerator. The old-world charm of the residence's original fireplace blends beautifully with the 21st-century kitchen, offering a glimpse into the home's historic past. The main level concludes with a powder room & access to the exterior patio & fenced in rear yard, a quiet setting, perfect for entertaining! The second level features the master bedroom with large window & very spacious walk-in closet, with a laundry hook-up inside the closet... a feature not often found in the Borough. A full bath with ample storage completes the second floor. The third level offers two additional bedrooms with abundant natural lighting provided by attractive skylights. The lower level houses the washer/dryer area & presents additional space for storage. While residing in a popular area of West Chester, this home offers incredible privacy with the exterior back yard inviting one to entertain or simply unwind on the brick patio. The buffering landscaping & privacy fencing creates an oasis of peace & quiet, a welcome break from the hustle & bustle of everyday life. The definition of charming, the West Chester Borough offers a truly unique place to live, combining a rich selection of superb culinary & shopping offerings, with celebrated community events & traditions. This property is part of "Town Center" zoning, allowing for a multitude of uses other than residential living, including but not limited to office & retail space.
