The first rule of real estate is LOCATION!
This home has the perfect one!

Situated on a street so quiet that often children play in it under the watchful eye of a parent. Why? Because most of the vehicles belong to someone who lives on this or a neighboring street. Yet, being just off Route 252 allows easy access to Baltimore Pike, I-95, Newtown Square, Malvern or even Phoenixville; and being a block away from Route 1 means 476 is minutes away! Delaware? Easy! Hospitals? No problem there, either! Shopping? These roads all lead to more shopping than anyone could ever want or need. Wawa is a block away and the elementary school just a few blocks . Nearby Rose Tree Park offers you the solitude of a quiet walk, a picnic, the enjoyment of holiday lights, community events, and free summer night musical entertainment.

This 3 bedroom, 2 bath home features a brand new roof, new chimney lines, 5 year old kitchen with wood look tile flooring, stainless steel appliances, soft close drawers with two pantries just steps away in the laundry room. Yes, first floor laundry room! The two bathrooms look as though they belong in a magazine with one being adjacent to the family room. The family room features a color changing, heat producing (probably electric) fireplace with flue. The primary bedroom has a lighted walk in closet. The attic has head room. The basement is casually finished. The first floor home office is not being counted as a bedroom but situated just off the living room could be a guest room. Or it could be a library. Or a craft room. Or a home work room. Or a children's play room. Or anything you want it to be.

Outside offers additional entertainment possibilities from the covered porch with outside electric to the rear yard with lighted privacy fence, hot tub pad with electrical set up that could charge a EV, a gas firepit,
paved patio, and walk in shed. There is a shade producing tree that has been professionally stabilized.

There is 4 car parking in the driveway with lots of street parking, too. There is little home owner turnover in this community. A couple homes have sold on this street this year which means this could be your last chance to enjoy living in this little enclave for a long time. I wouldn't wait if I were you the wait might be long!
