Designed and built in 1940 of distinctive 'Hollywood Block', this classic 3 bedroom center hall colonial home is located in the Southwest quadrant of historic West Chester. Wide tree-lined streets, spacious yards & ease of parking are the hallmarks of this section of town. Enjoy a quiet, suburban feel with a diversity of housing styles & walk 'uptown' in minutes for the parades, shopping, restaurants & activities t/o the year.Parking is by permit and although a stone's throw just west of the University complex,it is never a problem for residents. The University is a vital part of the community and sponsors a wide array of cultural activities. Parks, playgrounds & alleys provide areas to jog, walk, bike and play safely. Enter this gracious home from the expansive, enclosed porch, pass through the double door vestibule into the center hall. Many of the walls in the home are graced with wainscoting, also adding character are chair rail, wide sills, wood floors, beamed ceilings and a lovely staircase to the second floor. The bright living room and dining rooms, accessed from the center hall, provide elegant entertaining space for guests. A study is adjacent to the rear of the living room. The enclosed porch/sunroom is enjoyed several months of the year for dining, relaxing & entertaining. The eat-in kitchen adjoining the dining room was recently remodeled with wood cabinetry and quartz counters. Located directly behind the kitchen is the cozy den, paneled in real knotty pine and perfect for reading or tv watching. The powder room and a storage area complete the first floor. Upstairs you will find three spacious and bright corner bedrooms. The main bedroom has a walk-in closet.There is a door connecting the 2 bedrooms & each with a closet. The hall bath with linen closet was updated with gleaming white tile and maroon accents. A large hall linen closet is next to the attic stairs leading to the unfinished attic space easily converted into a great playroom, office or whatever. The full basement with ingress/egress contains the laundry area with washer & dryer, 3 workbenches & cabinetry... 5 yr Gas HVAC and 1 yr.gas hot water heater.
