About this home
More photos coming soon!
Welcome to 222 East Washington Street, a luxurious haven on a quiet block in the sought-after northeast quadrant, amidst the hustle and bustle of the West Chester Borough. This home was featured in the 2024 WCPL Holiday Home Tour. Located one block from Marshall Square Park, this updated, perfectly sized single family home has the perfect neighborhood feel, with all the amenities of the borough just a 2 minute walk away.
A bespoke diamond-patterned concrete driveway and whimsical landscaping featuring many native plants welcome you to this 1920s beauty. This home was meticulously renovated to maintain its 1920s charm: doors, trim, and hardware are all original or period-appropriate reproductions. Enter through the original front door into the fully renovated first floor, complete with new solid hickory hardwood floors, and solid wood louvered shutters to optimize privacy along the front of the home. To either side of the living room’s wood-burning fireplace, there are original French doors that let in light from the east-facing sunroom. The sunroom is the perfect space for an office, a playroom, or sitting room. The dining room retains its original built-in cabinetry, updated with lighting, and original Durand chandelier, along with custom woodwork inspired by 1920s craftsman details.
The kitchen, completed in 2024 by Phoenix Interiors, features custom cabinetry by Goebel and luxury Italian Fulgor Milano appliances, including a six-burner gas stove, a speed oven, and a warming drawer. The built-in refrigerator is complete with soft-close stainless steel drawers: a luxury you never knew you needed. Quartzite countertops, brass DeVol fixtures, and unlacquered brass hardware add timeless character, designed to develop a beautiful patina over time. The bonus butler’s pantry is a great place for your home’s mission control center, and leads down to the full-height basement. The first floor also includes a convenient half bath with a custom honey locust vanity.
Halfway down the basement stairs is a side door to the large, flat backyard, with a pet door so your furry friends can enjoy the fully fenced yard.
Upstairs are three generously sized bedrooms, a luxurious marble-and-brass bathroom with a six-foot soaking tub and rain shower, and a dedicated laundry room. The spacious primary bedroom features two floor-to-ceiling custom built-ins with drawers, hanging space, hidden hampers, and concealed jewelry and makeup storage with a lighted mirror. The third bedroom provides access to the walk-up, full-height attic.
Architectural plans are included for future expansion (totaling an extra 1200 square feet), including two additional bedrooms and a full bath, as well as plans for an en-suite bathroom and closet, home office, garage, and patio.
A rare combination of historic character, thoughtful design, luxury finishes, and future potential, all in one of West Chester Borough’s most desirable locations. The owners of this home did not spare a cent to make the upgrades they completed during their ownership of the home, and now you can benefit! This hundred-year-old home is ready for its next century. Don’t miss your chance to see this luxury single in the borough!...
