Property Description
A classic West Chester home reimagined with thoughtful updates and a clean, modern feel. Set on a quiet, tree-lined street, this four-bedroom residence blends original character with the kind of improvements that actually matter. Wide plank hardwood floors run throughout, grounding the home in warmth while natural light fills each space. The layout is comfortable and functional, with a living area anchored by a gas fireplace and enhanced with added soundproofing for privacy. The kitchen, bathroom and laundry were fully renovated in 2024, bringing a fresh, refined look to the home without losing its original charm. Upstairs, the bedrooms are well-proportioned with updated closets and flexible use across all three levels. Recent improvements include upgraded electrical, new lighting, new appliances, refreshed ceilings, and interior painting, creating a move-in ready experience that feels cohesive rather than pieced together. Out back, the property opens into a surprisingly generous yard with a new brick patio and mature landscaping, offering a private setting for entertaining or everyday use. A detached garage provides off-street parking and presents an opportunity for future conversion into an apartment or additional living space. Major systems and infrastructure have been addressed, including a new sewer line with a transferable warranty, updated windows, exterior painting, and ongoing service plans for plumbing, electrical, and HVAC. The result is a home that carries the charm of its era without the usual uncertainty that comes with it. A well-executed blend of character, space, and meaningful upgrades in one of West Chester's most desirable locations.
