Welcome Home! This West Chester townhome in the desirable "Village of Shannon" has some distinctive features that set it apart from the rest! Just a few of these features include a spacious "white" kitchen, a remodeled fully finished "walk-out" basement with new luxury vinyl plank flooring + surround sound speaker system, and an abundance of outdoor living space with a spacious Azek deck with stairs leading down to a charming, newer paver patio area, complemented by solar and strung lighting (installed in 2020). The owners truly went the extra mile to make this home as turn-key as possible for the future owner and it's evident in the details. From the moment that you pull up, the curb appeal is obvious, with newer shutters & front windows (2/22), and fresh mulch and beds for your favorite plants. Enter into the living area to find a double sided gas FP, custom floating shelves, HW flooring, coat closet, and a natural and open flow into the dining and kitchen areas. The dining space offers ample room for a large table, a fabulous chandelier and wall molding that elevates the appeal of this room. The "white" kitchen offers an abundance of "shaker style" cabinetry with dovetail construction and soft close drawers, granite countertops + a center island with seating, an undermount sink and pleasant wall color. 4-Burner Gas Cooking, 1 year young dishwasher, and GE side by side refrigerator and microwave (9/21) complete the updated look of this space. Sliding doors to your 18x13 Azek deck offers an extension of your living space and a lovely place for friends to gather, in addition to the patio below, easily accessed from the deck stairs. A conveniently located powder room nearby features a new comfort height toilet (1/23) and updated lighting and mirror. As you venture downstairs to a fully finished lower level, you may hear the music playing through the built-in speaker system. This entire space has been remodeled to allow for more storage and closet space, all the while keeping a spacious open room with NEW luxury vinyl plank flooring (2/23). A storage space under the TV has a tasteful stone facade and is a nice compliment to the flooring. Sliding doors to your patio bring in tons of natural light and lead you to one of your two outdoor living spaces. Through one set of paneled doors you will find your washer and new LG dryer (1/23) + utility sink. The other closets offer ample space for all of your storage needs. The bedroom level is accessed via hardwood stairs- so easy to keep clean! The main bedroom boasts newer neutral carpeting (2/22), chair rail, a newer ceiling fan, plenty of natural light through the 3 front windows, a spacious closet with double French-style doors, and a modern en-suite tile bathroom with stall shower that boasts listello glass accent tile, corner shelving & dual rainfall shower heads, & an updated mirror and vanity. The 2nd BR features engineered HW flooring and a tasteful gray toned wall color. The 3rd BR has a new window and a closet with a custom organization system. The hall bath boasts neutral tile, large mirror and vanity, and a new comfort height toilet (1/23). Other notable features: New HW heater (12/19), Nest Thermostat (1/19), Ring Security system, Doorbell + Smoke alarm/CO system all connected, New Levolor window treatments for all windows with the exception of the kitchen (7/22), New carpet installed t/o house (2/22), Transferable warranty on waterproofing system in basement (French drain/sump pump)- 2/20), Patio installation/Under-deck roofing and gutter system installed, New deck legs and concrete footers installed (2020). And just wait until you see the pink pawpaw trees that line Morstein Road in the spring & summer months- a truly beautiful site to view from the front windows, and when you pull up to your new home! There's so much to love about this home, including the low taxes and HOA fees + award winning West Chester SD!
