Property Description

Tucked into a uniquely quiet end of block location, but still walkable part of Kennett Square Borough, this spacious but charming Cape offers a wonderful combination of classic character, thoughtful updates, and an incredibly convenient location. Just two blocks from Kennett Square High School and only a few blocks from the Creamery and the heart of the Borough, you can easily walk to shops, restaurants, parks, sports fields, and all the things that make Kennett Square such a special place to call home.

Inside, the home feels warm and inviting, with newly refinished hardwood floors throughout and a comfortable layout that offers the charm and character buyers love in a Cape. The main level features 2 bedrooms, a great room with fireplace and side porch access, formal dining room, eat-in updated kitchen with rear deck access, and a beautifully updated full bathroom, completely transformed in 2025. Upstairs you'll find three spacious bedrooms with plenty of closet space, a full hall bath, and 2 hall closets. There's plenty of storage throughout the home, including a huge 1,000 sf walk-out basement with excellent potential for finishing or simply keeping all of your extras tucked away.

The outdoor spaces are just as inviting. Step onto the newly refinished deck and enjoy the level yard on a corner lot— a great setting for relaxing, entertaining, gardening, or simply enjoying some fresh air. The side porch, with its southern exposure, is the perfect spot for morning coffee or winding down with an evening sunset. There's also one off-street parking space.

You'll appreciate the peace of mind that comes with the home's many recent improvements, including a new roof installed in November 2024, a new furnace and air conditioning system installed in 2025, and the new front porch/stoop installed in July 2025. The refrigerator and range are approximately seven years old.

With its charming Cape-style character, peaceful Borough setting, refreshed interior and exterior spaces, abundant storage, and long list of recent improvements, this home offers a wonderful opportunity to enjoy Kennett Square living. It's close enough to walk to town, yet tucked away in a setting that feels surprisingly quiet and private.
