New Street, where luxury and privacy meet prime accessibility to the charming borough of West Chester. This custom-built home by James Watson sits on a generous 2 + acre lot. The size of the lot is 88,470 square feet or slightly over 2 acres. Exterior features include a circular driveway at the front of the home, two separate decks and two EP Henry patios in the rear. Step inside the front door to the large two-story foyer with the formal dining room to your left. On your right, you’ll find the living room and sunroom, adjoined with an elegant double-sided fireplace. The sunroom opens up to a private deck overlooking the patio for a view of the serene natural backdrop. Move through the living room French doors and enter the generously sized study, perfect for a home library or office space. Exit the study through another set of French doors and you’ll be greeted by the family room on your right. This space features a cozy stone fireplace, perfectly complementing the wooded natural backdrop of the property. Continue past the family room to enter the large kitchen and breakfast room, featuring access to the spacious primary deck. This home has extensive refinished oak hardwood flooring on the first and second floors. There are two separate HVAC units, a central vacuum, and a security system. Walk up to the second floor using either the front main staircase or the convenient rear staircase just off the kitchen. The second-floor impresses with five bedrooms. At the top of the front staircase, you will find a large primary suite, featuring a sitting room, his-and-her walk-in closets, and an updated primary bath. At the opposite end of the hall, you will be surprised to find a spacious 2nd primary suite, equipped with its own full bathroom, walk-in closet, and large storage space. Between the two suites are three additional bedroom spaces and another full bathroom. Across from the master suite, open the door and walk up the stairs to access the third floor. You will be thrilled to find a large open floored space with rough ins for a bath and three dormer windows. The walkout basement is a large finished space, equipped with a bar and eating area, a full bath, a separate room with sliding glass doors for a large home office, and plenty of storage space.
