Known as “The Cottage on Cope Road” this adorable 1920’s cottage is full of charm and vintage details. Lovingly updated and maintained by the same owner since 2005, this property is quaint and peaceful. Due to its dual zoning – residential (County) and commercial (Township) – it offers a unique opportunity within walking distance to downtown Kennett Square. For Buyers who want the convenience of being in-town in Kennett, but want a little more room to play, garden and entertain, this is a fantastic property! Easy one-floor living provides 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, with multiple other rooms that could be used as an additional bedroom, an office, a den, etc. A generous living room with a wood burning fireplace anchors the home and is a cozy gathering spot. Off of this space, an adorable smaller room is currently set up for reading a book while taking in the view out the window. In the kitchen, the original upper cabinets and matching built-in have been repainted, but the appliances have recently been replaced for a lovely mix of old and new. A walkup attic with loads of storage and an unfinished basement complete the home. For Buyers who want to take advantage of the commercial aspect of this property, the options are plentiful. You could use the entire home for your business, or rent out some of the rooms to other tenants. A shared space for professionals would be easy to establish; with various exterior entrances, independent spaces could be created with the kitchen and a bathroom being shared. For investors and developers, the myriad by-right commercial uses offer tremendous potential. Projects of varying scope and size could be explored. A property like this doesn’t often come up for sale so don’t miss out on this incredible offering.
