Welcome to 115 E Lafayette Street, a 4 bedroom, 1.5 bath, 2408 square foot Brick Federal Style twin located on a quiet, one way street just 4 blocks from downtown West Chester. You would be challenged to find a home in the borough with more historic charm. Built in 1873, this home is a piece of history. A marble plaque directly across the street marks the spot where General Marquis de Lafayette addressed the troops following his visit to Brandywine Battlefield in 1823. Every room in the house has been painted with fresh, neutral colors (Benjamin Moore Collingwood, Revere Pewter, and Capitol White for the custom moulding and trim). 9.5 feet ceilings in the LR and DR, and large windows throughout the home let in tons of natural light. Underfoot are heart pine hardwood floors on all three stories. The home has undergone several major updates in recent years, making it move in ready. New roof, soffits and custom cornice work restored, composite front porch (all 2016), powder room remodel (2017), backyard patio paver installed (2017)backyard lateral sewer pipe replacement (2018), water heater (Dec 2018), HVAC (2018), and custom built bilco doors to accompany new steps (2020). Historic Marshall Square Park sits directly at the end of the street (summer concerts, new playground, basketball court, and recently restored fountain). Close to Chester County Hospital (Less then 1 mile), and a close to the Exton Train Station. Walkable to downtown, full of parades, restaurants, bars, pubs, coffee shops, Ice Cream Parlors (check out Scoops n Smiles that recently opened!), farmers markets, shops, block parties and MORE!
