Description
1253 Surrey Road is the kind of home that reminds you why neighborhoods like this are so hard to find — mature trees, one-acre lots, low taxes, great schools, and enough elbow room that you’re not practically shaking hands with your neighbor through the kitchen window. This split-level offers nearly 2,000 square feet, 3 bedrooms, 2 full and 1 half baths, and a layout that was doing “open concept” long before HGTV made it trendy. The kitchen, dining area, and family room flow together beautifully...1253 Surrey Road is the kind of home that reminds you why neighborhoods like this are so hard to find — mature trees, one-acre lots, low taxes, great schools, and enough elbow room that you’re not practically shaking hands with your neighbor through the kitchen window. This split-level offers nearly 2,000 square feet, 3 bedrooms, 2 full and 1 half baths, and a layout that was doing “open concept” long before HGTV made it trendy. The kitchen, dining area, and family room flow together beautifully and spill out onto a generous two-level deck that’s practically begging for cookouts, string lights, and someone claiming they’re “just going to sit outside for five minutes.” The home has been well cared for over the years and is absolutely move-in ready -- offering the perfect opportunity for someone with vision, Pinterest boards, and a mild obsession with paint swatches to make it their own over time. This is a solid home offering the kind of potential that allows the next owner to make it their own while enjoying it from day one. The primary suite includes two closets and a private bath, the secondary bedrooms are generously sized and share a hall bath, and the lower-level rec room gives you bonus space for movie nights, hobbies, a home office, or hiding from your family during football season. Add in the two-car garage, laundry area, wonderful neighborhood setting, and proximity to everything West Chester has to offer, and you have a home that delivers location, space, and potential in equal measure.
