About This Home

As of March 2025

Located in the sought-after Charter Chase community, 1229 Waterford Road offers a harmonious blend of space, comfort, and character. Set on a picturesque one-acre lot, this beautifully maintained home features a flowing layout and thoughtfully designed living spaces. Large windows throughout mean sun-drenched interiors and scenic views of the stunning and level one-acre backyard.
The inviting eat-in kitchen is a true delight, featuring granite countertops and lovely tile backsplash and floors. The cozy family room is a warm and welcoming retreat, complete with custom wood cabinetry, a wood-burning fireplace, and sliding doors leading to a screened-in porch—the perfect spot to savor your morning coffee. Step through the porch onto a charming brick patio, complete with a custom table and chairs, offering yet another way to enjoy the breathtaking open space.
Upstairs the primary suite is a sanctuary, boasting an en suite bathroom, spacious walk-in closet, and French doors to the true standout feature of this home: its eye-catching New Orleans-style iron balcony. Three additional bedrooms and a finished basement provide plenty of room for living, working, and storage. Meticulously maintained and move-in ready, this home offers both charm and peace of mind.
Don’t forget, that living in Charter Chase means access to fantastic community amenities, including a pool, tennis courts, and a scenic pond for peaceful strolls. In an ideal location, this home is just minutes from downtown West Chester and the town of Malvern, offering an array of dining, shopping, and entertainment options: including popular Buttery Bakery and Kimberton Whole Foods. Nearby to East Goshen Park and the Malvern Train Station on the Paoli/Thorndale Line, this home could not be more perfectly located! Impeccably maintained and brimming with character, 1229 Waterford Road is ready to welcome its next owners—don’t miss this opportunity!
