Sitting proudly on just over 3/4 acres, overlooking the Struble Trail and Dowlin Forge Park, 480 Shelmire Road features the qualities that most homeowners can only dream about. This 4 bedroom 3.5 bathroom classic Chester County colonial home features over 3100 square feet of living space on the main and second floors and an additional 480 square feet in the finished basement. This well maintained home has been adorned with a newer roof, gutters, siding, windows, updated kitchen and bathrooms, fresh paint, new carpets and flooring, new HVAC system and new hot water heater. This home sets a new standard for the phrase move-in ready . Enter the home and be welcomed by the modern chandelier in the two-story foyer. Kick off your shoes and tuck them away in the coat closet as you enter into the formal living room; the windows fill the room with sunlight that beams off of the wide-planked, hand-scraped floors. A wide opening leads to the formal dining room, where Holiday dinners and family memories are plentiful. The dining room has been updated with an updated chandelier, chair rail molding and windows that look out over the rear yard. To the left of the foyer, double doors open to a first floor office; a perfect spot for those that work from home or use it as a craft room or art studio! The kitchen has been updated with newer cabinetry, oversized tile flooring, stainless steel appliances, granite counters, slate backsplash, pendant island lighting and recessed lighting. The eat-in area flanks a bay window that peers over the yard and koi pond. Envision evenings at home with family and friends, a fire burning in the brick surrounded gas fireplace that anchors the family room. People strewn out across this open floorplan but comfortably close, at the same time. A powder room is neatly tucked away, down the hall and right outside of the large mud room. The two-car garage keeps your cars snow and rain free! The master suite is larger than some apartments (I kid you not), with plenty of room for all of your furniture and an additional sitting room for a quiet reading nook or that Peloton Bike you have always wanted. The updated master bathroom speaks for itself, with large tile flooring, double-sinks, a glass shower enclosure, a freestanding tub, new cabinet, sinks, fixtures and lighting. The three additional bedrooms feature updated flooring, ceiling fans and plenty of closet space. The hall bathroom has been updated to mirror the master bathroom, with a glass shower door, tile flooring and tub surround, updated cabinet, fixtures and lighting. Need more? Want a home gym? The basement can give you the space for that AND comes complete with a full shower so you can clean up before coming back upstairs. Or you can convert it into a guest space and they can feel comfortable with their own bathroom. A storage area is neatly tucked away with built in shelving, keeping all of your items organized. Outside, the newly updated composite and wood layered deck offers a space to relax while the kids or pets play in the fenced yard. Or use it for quiet afternoon/evenings alone under a blanket of stars. A new shed also comes with the home for keeping all of your lawn equipment and other toys in order. I almost forgot to mention; this home is located in the award winning Downingtown School District that features the STEM academy and is also located minutes from some of the area s top dining and tremendous access to the turnpike. An opportunity to own a home such as this, rarely comes along; I would hate for you to miss out! Make your appointment today!
