Welcome to 196 Mercer Mill Rd, a charming 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home offering over 1,400 square feet of living space on a fantastic 1.1-acre flat lot with a spacious, fully fenced backyard - the property line goes beyond the fencing! This move-in ready property blends modern amenities with the serene charm of Chester County living. The home’s exterior features new (2024) white vinyl siding, painted brick, classic shutters, and a pop of color from the inviting red front door. Enter via the covered front porch into an open-concept main level, where a spacious living room with large windows and a brick-hearth fireplace welcomes you. The living room flows seamlessly into a fantastic kitchen, outfitted with stainless steel appliances, white shaker cabinets, gas cooking, and an island with a breakfast bar. Adjacent to the kitchen is a sunny breakfast area, overlooking the backyard through a Renewal by Andersen sliding glass door. Step out from the kitchen onto the beautiful paver patio, completed in 2023, which overlooks the expansive backyard—a perfect setting for entertaining or unwinding with an evening drink. The main level also includes a convenient half bathroom and access to the 1-car garage with additional storage space.
Upstairs, the primary suite offers an en-suite bathroom featuring a double vanity, large step-in shower, and built-in storage shelves. The suite also boasts a Juliet balcony—an ideal spot for morning coffee or evening relaxation, overlooking the backyard. Bedrooms 2 and 3 are well sized and share a full hall bathroom with a single vanity and tub/shower combo. The finished lower level, professionally waterproofed in 2024, provides a flexible space perfect for a gym, home office, or entertainment area. The unfinished space also provides additional storage, access to mechanicals, and the lower level laundry.
Don’t miss out on this perfect blend of comfort, style, and functionality in a peaceful Chester County setting. Please note there are exterior security cameras in use.
