About this home
Location, location, location! Opportunities like this rarely come along. Just a one-minute walk from the heart of vibrant Downtown West Chester, this beautifully updated, move-in-ready townhome offers the perfect blend of timeless character, modern upgrades, and an unbeatable lifestyle.
Step inside 229 E. Market Street and you'll immediately appreciate the fresh neutral paint, charming millwork, luxury vinyl plank flooring, and abundant natural light that fills the home. The welcoming family room flows seamlessly into the completely renovated eat-in kitchen, creating an ideal space for both everyday living and entertaining.
The stunning new kitchen features elegant quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, abundant cabinetry, generous prep space, a pantry closet, and a window overlooking the fenced rear yard. There's ample room for a dining table, while the rear door opens directly to the deck—perfect for grilling, relaxing, and enjoying warm summer evenings with family, friends, and even your four-legged companions.
Parking in the Borough can be a challenge—but not here. The rear driveway, accessed from the alley, provides off-street parking for up to four vehicles (depending on vehicle size), an exceptional and highly sought-after convenience in Downtown West Chester.
Completing the main level are an updated powder room and convenient coat closet.
Upstairs, the second floor offers two generously sized bedrooms with ample closet space and hard-surface flooring, along with a well-appointed full hall bath. The third floor features an oversized private bedroom with two closets, including a spacious walk-in closet, making it an ideal primary suite, guest retreat, or flexible living space.
Need even more room? The finished lower level offers endless possibilities as a media room, home office, fitness area, playroom, or recreation space. Laundry facilities and multiple storage closets complete this versatile level.
Beyond its cosmetic updates, this home also offers peace of mind with a new HVAC system, allowing you to simply move in and enjoy.
