About This Home

As of May 2017

Find your Borough BLISS! Today's style, updated charm, walkable location, delightful rear yard AND a coveted parking space combine for the perfect West Chester nest! Pretty wood floors accent the inviting living room and flow through to the pleasing dining room. Built-in china shelves also accent this delectable room. The kitchen has been updated to create a sunny, efficient room--there is even a cozy, casual dining space for a pleasant breakfast or coffee break. The mudroom/pantry space is much appreciated for entry or access for your backyard barbeques! Upstairs, the style and charm continue as you appreciate the fresh decor of the serene master bedroom. A breezy styled bath with re-fitted claw foot tub, updated vanity and adjoining laundry niche offers an airy, enticing area. A sunny second bedroom completes this level. The finished, skylight-brightened third floor creates a 3rd bedroom or your favorite hideaway. Always nice to have a basement for utility needs too! Oil heat and central air suit modern lifestyle needs. Having the privacy-fenced, play space in the rear yard makes the upcoming, warm-weather enjoyment a snap! So nice to be able to throw some "shrimp on the barbie" with your burgers, steaks or veggies when you feel like staying at home. Of course, the easy walk to West Chester's "hot" dining spots, popular bistros or neighborhood pubs is just one more reason to "find your happy place" here! AND accessible shopping at the many, unique shops--that's just one more box to check on your wish list! Nearby borough parking makes life easy for your visitors too. Your parking space enters the fenced yard with beautiful brick walkway plus custom hardscaping and landscaping enhancements. Lots to love in this beguiling residence so hop on the West Chester FUN train and ENJOY!
