About This Home

As of October 2024

Welcome to 78 Dorchester Way! This beautiful, well-maintained home WITH 1ST FLOOR PRIMARY BEDROOM OFFERING TRUE ONE FLOOR LIVING sits on a private lot on a quiet circle just minutes from Phoenixville Borough! As you approach the house, you’ll appreciate the elegant stone and stucco exterior and classic black shutters. Make your way up the front walk to the covered front porch and enter into the inviting first floor. On your right, the formal dining room with crown molding, chair rail and warm engineered hardwood floors awaits your next dinner party. The beautiful built-in lighted hutch adds a touch of elegance. The bright and comfortable living room boasts soaring two story ceilings for an open and airy feel plus a gas fireplace, window seat and custom lighted built-ins adding to the charm of this welcoming space. Adjacent to the living room is a lovely private room with a view of the backyard. It’s currently used as a music room but could easily be a private home office. The living room is open to the eat-in kitchen providing great flow for entertaining. The kitchen boasts gas cooking, ample cabinetry with some glass front display cabinets, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, island breakfast bar and tile backsplash plus a huge pantry for storage. Through the sliding glass door, you can access the composite deck and then step down to the large backyard. Additionally, there is a comfortable sun room off of the kitchen that’s perfect for enjoying a cup of coffee or a book. The half bathroom, laundry room and access to the oversized three-car garage are also on the first floor. For true one floor living, the first floor primary bedroom is a relaxing escape. This suite offers a large bedroom with custom plantation shutters, walk-in closet and private en suite bathroom with a step-in shower with dual shower heads, storage niche and tile surround with accent plus a double vanity, dressing table and water closet. Upstairs, two bright, cheery bedrooms share the full hall bathroom with a double vanity and tub/shower combination. The third additional bedroom is a junior suite with its own private full bathroom. The unfinished, daylight, walk-out basement with double doors to the exterior is fantastic for storage. If you’d prefer more living space, with a superior wall system and rough plumbing for a full bath, the options are endless! Proximity to Phoenixville Borough will allow you to take advantage of numerous delicious local restaurants, many small businesses plus tons of community events. You’re also a quick drive to Valley Forge National Park and multiple entrances to the Schuylkill River Trail for miles of walking or biking. You don’t want to miss this one!
