Property Description
This brick twin in the heart of West Chester Boro is a designer showcase! This beautifully styled home at 229 W Union St has it all - a covered front porch, central air and heat, a spacious, open-concept living and dining room, a fenced backyard, covered off-street parking, and the gourmet kitchen of your dreams. This home is designed in white, creating a bright, neutral and inviting space. Recessed lighting, stunning refinished hardwood floors and wainscotting all add to the appeal, and the completely renovated gourmet kitchen is simply draw-dropping. There's a convenient laundry/mudroom and a new powder room at the back of the home, and you can step directly out to the back porch and your fenced back yard. With cute-as-a-button landscaping, there's a gated side passage to the front and there's covered off-street parking at the back. 229 W Union St also offers 3 bedrooms and a stunning, completely updated full bathroom on the 2nd floor, plus there's a 4th bedroom on the upper level. If you don't need all 4 bedrooms, this light-filled and spacious penthouse level room would make a delightful home office, dressing room, or more. Plus, there is an unfinished basement that offers excellent storage, and this home has already been pre-inspected! Additional updates include new Pella windows throughout, a new porch railing, exterior paint, new sump pump, front and back yard landscaping and so much more. Completely turnkey and stylish, this impressive home is a 2-block walk to Everhart Park, and you can enjoy all the shops, dining, and local festivities that West Chester Boro offers.
