About This Home

As of November 2020

Don't miss the opportunity to live in a charming twin in the Borough of West Chester, offering affordable living with all the frills. Enjoy both a front yard and an expansive fenced-in backyard that's perfect for your kids or dog to run free. This property has its own carport in the back alley with ample space for two cars, plus TWO sheds for your bikes, mower, and garden tools. The backyard faces south with plenty of room to grow gardens, add a swing-set, and create living space for outside entertaining. Inside, enjoy hardwood floors throughout and a newly renovated kitchen, complete with granite island, plenty of counter space, gas cooking, SS appliances, and new windows. The kitchen sink overlooks the backyard and side yard allowing the natural light to pour in. The second floor has three bedrooms with plenty of windows and breeze. A pull-down attic is completely floored and walkable (without crouching), which offers another floor for storage. The fully-heated basement has plenty of storage, with an egress door to the backyard and can be easily finished into more living space. This house has LOW taxes and is situated in a desirable spot that is less than a 5-minute walk to the hub of town. Come and see it quickly; it won't last long!
