About This Home
As of September 2022A bright and cheery home in the best location in town! On a tree-lined block within the lower Avenues , this updated and lovingly restored 4-bedroom 1.5 bath house is smackdab in the central district of the borough. Permit-free, street parking is plentiful, and the one-way traffic designation keeps road noise to a minimum to deliver a zen feel inside. Newer custom carpentry mixed in with century old woodwork create a unique charm. Cherrywood built-ins in the main bedroom and shelving units throughout provide character and intelligent functionality, while refinished hardwood floors bring all three levels of living space to life. Natural light pours in from skylights in the third-floor loft-style bedroom and a double kitchen window looking out over the back garden. When the weather turns cold, multiple heating options offer efficiency: A gas boiler and woodstove in the living room supplement a five-zoned central air/heat split unit. You ll never run out of hot water with a high-efficiency, on-demand gas hot water heater. Say goodbye to filtered water pitchers as this home features a chlorine and reverse osmosis filtration system. A first-floor powder room is an entertaining essential, just as a nearby laundry room and mudroom make everyday living easier. Unfinished, dry, walk-out basement is perfect for storage, or setting up some sort of workshop. The fenced-in backyard is a gardener s delight and a bird s paradise. The trellised side gate welcomes visitors to a private blue stone patio, tranquil pond, and a wide assortment of flora with pleasant views of the Phoenixville skyline. Wave hello from your spacious front porch as your friendly neighbors stroll by. Save miles on your car and drop some inches from your waist you can literally walk to everything: Reeves Park and the library, schools, grocery options, and of course the abundance of downtown restaurants, breweries and independent shops. This home is a special opportunity that won t be long for the taking.
