About this home

Living in the Old Chester Historic neighborhood brings a sense of timeless character, quiet streets, and established charm. Built in 1930, this 5-bedroom home combines authentic vintage architecture with practical, move-in ready updates. Daily life flows naturally across the main level, which showcases fresh interior paint, new flooring, and a spacious living room centered on a stone-faced fireplace. The kitchen provides generous cabinet storage and granite countertops, complemented by both a formal dining room for dinner parties and a bright breakfast room for casual morning routines. A main-floor primary bedroom with an en suite bath offers easy single-level convenience, alongside an oversized laundry room that connects directly to a 3rd full bath with a walk-in shower. Upstairs, you will find 4 well-proportioned bedrooms, a full bathroom, and an unheated bonus room that makes an ideal 6th bedroom, playroom, studio, or private home office. Outdoor living centers around the expansive screened porch overlooking a generous 0.34-acre lot. Complete with a newer roof (2024), updated HVAC (2023), new carpet throughout, and a seller-provided one-year 2-10 Home Warranty, this home offers classic personality with complete peace of mind.
