About This Home

Set along Mechanics Alley—this newer West Chester Borough twin with sunny southern exposure puts you in the middle of it all, with true walkability to everything the borough has to offer, from restaurants and coffee shops to parks and everyday essentials, and West Chester University.**Built in 2017, this brick and vinyl home is one of the few new/newer homes in the borough. Another desirable feature is the attached two-car garage AND an additional, assigned parking space, giving you convenience that most borough homes simply don’t have. Inside the front door, a wide staircase with oak treads and abundant windows with interior shutters are among the luxury features evident throughout the home. The first floor provides an entry from the front door and from the garage. This flex room can provide its new owner with a variety of functions, from gym, to office, to gaming room. There is also access to the basement from this room and a generous coat closet. The living level is filled with natural light due to its southern exposure. The kitchen and deck get the morning light, and the family room gets the sunset. The living area is anchored by a fireplace, creating a comfortable focal point, while the kitchen—finished with quartz countertops—flows easily into the dining area for both daily living and entertaining. This stainless steel refrigerator is included in the sale. The bedroom level includes a primary suite with a generous walk-in closet. The primary bathroom includes frameless shower doors around a large walk-in shower, and furniture grade double vanity. The bedroom level also includes two guests rooms, a hall bath, a laundry area including washer and dryer, and linen closet.**The unfinished basement provides excellent storage now, with egress that offers the opportunity to finish and expand your living space over time.**The Peloton and inversion table are also available for sale.**If your life takes you outside the boro, you have quick access to Routes US-202, PA-3, US-322, PA-100, and PA-52. Exton Amtrak/SEPTA is 10-15 minutes drive depending on traffic. 3 SEPTA bus routes run through the Boro (92, 104, 135). School feeder is Bayard Rustin HS, Stetson MS, and Westtown-Thornbury ES.
