Property Description
Welcome to this wonderful twin, located in the Downingtown School District! The covered front porch is perfect welcome into this traditional brick home, which the owner has lovingly maintained over the years. A newer kitchen offers an Eat-In area, an island and a contemporary shaker style cabinet with a fun back splash. The Dining Room has fabulous built-in cabinetry and the original hardwood floors flow throughout the home on all floors. Closet space has been added or expanded where ever possible. And, the attic was finished to accommodate the 4th bedroom. There is also room on the 3rd floor to add a 2nd bathroom, which offers potential for a wonderful Master Suite! The house has been freshly painted with neutral "greige" tones and all windows have also been upgraded. At one point, a two-story screened in porch was added for quiet nights of relaxing, eating or reading on either floor. Backyard fun awaits with this nice sized lot. It's perfect for recreation and barbecues! There is off street parking behind the house with alley access, enough for 2-3 cars. A newer storage shed has been reinforced to accommodate heavier equipment. Highland Ave. is one block from the Paoli/Thorndale Septa/ Amtrak train station, offering direct access to Philadelphia or Harrisburg. While close to the Downingtown Borough and all it has to offer, this house is actually situated within a great community and has a small town feel and vibe. It is within walking distance to Beaver Creek Elementary School and Lloyd Park. Because of the lower taxes for a great school district, its close proximity to the train, borough and the Elementary School, this house will not last long. Homes on this block have all gone under contract very quickly and for over asking at times! If you wait too long to schedule your showing, it will be gone.
