Property Description

Here is your unique opportunity to own one of West Chester Boro’s iconic Victorian twins located just steps away from Marshall Square Park. 141 E Marshall St is one of those rare gems that offers a perfect blend of original Old World charm with contemporary updates. This attractive brick home has every feature you crave for a modern lifestyle – a 2-car garage plus 2-car driveway parking, a large fenced backyard, tons of storage space, and a bright, spacious floorplan. In a nod to the craftsmanship of yesteryear, there is a covered front porch, original hardwood floors, a vestibule foyer entry, a back stairway, and a buffet-style built-in in the dining room that would make a charming coffee bar. And, in true Victorian architecture, this home is designed for height and vertical lines with high ceilings as well as floor to ceiling windows to maximize natural light. The kitchen is beautifully updated, boasting new quartzite countertops, cherry cabinetry, a built-in Sub Zero refrigerator, and a Thermador range with gas cooking and a Viking hood. Stylish and urbane, there is a large picture window with stained glass, and there’s a glass side door that opens onto a tiered patio that will take you down to the fenced backyard. The 2nd floor offers 2 large bedrooms - take your pick of which to use as the primary; they are both bright and roomy with good closet storage and original hardwood floors. There are also 2 full bathrooms on this floor, as well as an incredibly spacious dedicated laundry room. And, there is the most charming room at the end of the hall – a lovely space for a home office or the coziest reading nook to unwind and relax – and it features original wood shutters serving as another nod to the past. The 3rd floor offers 2 more bedrooms, both quite spacious, and one features access to the attic storage, as well as an entire hallway of closets and additional storage space. And, there’s even more storage in the unfinished basement which also boasts an authentic Victorian root cellar. What a thoughtfully designed home with modern updates and a reverence for the original Victorian details! Situated in one of the most sought-after locations in the Boro, Marshall Square Park is within eyesight on the opposite corner - less than a minute’s walk away, or you can take a comfortable stroll into the heart of town to enjoy shops, dining, festivals, and more.
