Homes in this incredibly desirable area of West Chester don't become available often. It's where residents connect with the past while enjoying the vibrancy the university and all the county seat attracts. Modeled after homes in England, the architecture along the tree-lined Sharpless Street has classic features, charm and character and built to stand the test of time. This home has a country cottage style and is situated on one of the very few oversized lots in the southwest corner of the borough within walking distance of cultural events, restaurants, boutique shopping, the courthouse, university, transportation and so much more. Enjoy the welcoming front porch and stepping into the warm and relaxing living room featuring a brick wood-burning fireplace and hardwood floors. The hardwood floors flow into the gracious dining room with original built-in cabinets. The eat-in kitchen is flooded with natural light and views of the garden-like back yard and park across the alley. Up the inviting staircase, find comfortable bedrooms with quaint ceiling curvatures adding to the charming feel of the home. Closets are typical of the era and vintage borough living. There's a good sized full bath at the top of the landing. There is access to 2 attic storage spaces. There are built-in pantry cabinets on the landing of the stairs leading to the basement. From here, access the oversized 2 car-garage that opens to the rear yard. So much parking! Pull off the street via the alley in the rear and park 2+ cars easily. The lovely back-yard is private enough to enjoy gathering with friends and family. The home has been well-maintained with roof, windows, heat etc updated within 10 years. The lot size also allows for comfortable expansion if more living space is desired. This one is waiting for your update to make it home. It is a rare opportunity to become the next generation to live on Sharpless St. Offer deadline has been added: Please contact the listing agent with serious interest and/or offers by Sunday, 9/18/22 midnight.
