About This Home

As of December 2025

Words just aren't enough to describe this beautiful home. Sitting on 1.1 acres in a beautiful subdivision just outside of Chester, the current owners built new to their specifications in 1998. They love this home and are needing to downsize and move to be close to family or they would stay here forever. From the comfortable family room with access to the large covered deck to the full huge dry basement, this home has it all. Two car garage and a long concrete driveway; immaculately maintained and decorated; 3 full and 1 half bathrooms; 3 big bedrooms including a primary with a huge primary bathroom (jacuzzi tub) and walk-in closet; Roof was new in 2020 and all new appliances were installed in 2020. The kitchen has a breakfast bar with cooktop and seating for several. Come and see this one for yourself. It certainly is breathtaking. Serious buyers only please and preapproval is needed to view. Some of the furniture is available for purchase; just let us know you want it.
