Property Description

A beautifully maintained home, an exceptional property, and possibilities that are increasingly difficult to find in West Chester. Welcome to 1116 Taylor Avenue, where comfortable, move-in-ready living meets an extraordinary amount of space, versatility, and opportunity. From the moment you arrive, the property feels different. Set on a beautifully maintained, expansive lot framed by mature trees, the home is complemented by an impressive detached multi-bay garage/outbuilding with a separate living area(apartment)creating a combination that is as practical as it is rare. Inside the freshly painted 4BR / 2BA home, one notices the warm, bright, and inviting feeling instantly. Beautiful, refinished hardwood floors flow through the main living spaces, beginning with a spacious living room filled with natural light from oversized windows. Neutral finishes and an easy, comfortable floor plan allow the home to feel immediately welcoming while providing a great backdrop for virtually any style. The dining area offers plenty of room for everyday meals or entertaining and opens into a bright additional living space surrounded by windows. Whether used for morning coffee, reading, entertaining, or simply enjoying views of the property, this light-filled area adds another dimension to the home's living space. The kitchen combines timeless warmth with everyday functionality, featuring abundant wood cabinetry, generous counter space, recessed lighting, tile flooring, and a full suite of stainless-steel appliances. Multiple windows bring in natural light and offer views of the surrounding grounds. The primary bedroom is generously proportioned, with hardwood flooring, room for a sitting area, and charming built-in shelving that adds both character and functionality. The home's finished living areas have been thoughtfully maintained, with clean neutral finishes and abundant natural light creating a comfortable, polished atmosphere. But what truly separates 1116 Taylor Avenue from the ordinary is what you'll find beyond the main house. At the rear of the property sits an exceptionally large detached garage/outbuilding with multiple garage bays, extensive (newly sealed)driveway and parking spaces, and substantial additional interior living space. For the car enthusiast, collector, hobbyist, craftsman, contractor, or anyone who has ever wished they had more room for vehicles, equipment, projects, storage, or a serious workshop, this is an outstanding feature. The upper and interior portions of the structure provide even more space and present tremendous potential for a future owner to customize according to their needs, subject to applicable zoning, permitting, and approvals. The property itself enhances the experience. Expansive lawn areas, mature landscaping, a wooded backdrop, generous driveway space, and the separation between the residence and outbuilding create a sense of openness that is increasingly hard to replicate. There is room here to live, entertain, work on projects, store the things you love, and simply enjoy having some breathing room. Properties offering this combination of comfortable residential living, land, parking, storage, and substantial auxiliary space simply don't come along every day. This isn't simply a home with a garage - It's a property that gives its next owner options. ** Property has a whole house 10kw Generac generator (500 gallon owned above ground propane tank). ** Property is currently serviced with well water; public hook up is available.
