About this home
Welcome to 217 W Biddle Street, an exceptional and extraordinary rare offering in the Borough of West Chester. Unlike the surrounding streets dominated by townhomes and semi-attached residences, this thoughtfully designed single-family detached home stands apart in both form and function. The current owner has invested significant care and intention into the design, remodeling, and ongoing refurbishment, resulting in a home that feels refined, tranquil, and remarkably livable.
This 2-bedroom, 2-full-bathroom residence offers true one-floor living, with soaring ceilings 10-to-13 feet throughout, creating an open, airy atmosphere filled with south-facing natural light. The kitchen and main living space is a standout feature, flooded with sunshine, anchored by dark cabinetry, quartz countertops, a charming corner sink framed by windows overlooking the sidewalk, and a new dishwasher. Electrical has already been installed for a future kitchen island, offering flexibility for the next owner.
Both bathrooms have recently been renovated (July 2025) and feature heated floors, adding an embracing luxurious touch. The primary suite is serene and spacious, easily accommodating a king-size bed, and includes a large walk-in closet with built-in organizer system, a spacious linen closet with built-in shelves, and an en-suite bath with a stand-up shower and single vanity. A unique window transom between the kitchen and primary bedroom brings even more southern natural light into the space. The second well sized bedroom is on the other side of the house, also has a large closet with built-in organizer system, and is just across the hall to the second full bathroom with tub/shower. Higher up above the closet in the second bedroom is unfinished storage for a potential cedar closet.
The home is extremely energy efficient and HVAC-sound quiet. It's overwhelmingly constructed of 12-inch wide cinder block with stucco exterior and overabundance of insulation in walls, attic, subfloor. Additionally, ready-made architectural drawings offer potential for second-floor expansion, a rare opportunity in the borough. The main-floor laundry with newer washer & dryer (May 2024) is conveniently located just off the garage, with plumbing already in place for a utility sink in the garage (sink not yet installed).
What truly sets this property apart is the oversized two-car garage; an exceptional find in West Chester. Both garage doors are newer Premium Steel with 3-Layer R18.4 insulation and double-pane windows. The extra-wide garage bay closest to the house is fully insulated and features multiple workshop & bench areas with the home hot water & furnace system enclosed behind two wide metal insulated doors for easy access and maintenance. The other garage bay features a 10-foot-high door with large storage loft and can be completely partitioned from the residence and could be rented separately if desired. In addition, there is off-street parking for two more vehicles or RV, accessed from the kitchen, where you’ll also find a custom mosaic art installation adorning the rear wall another reflection of the owner’s attention to detail. There's even a convenient locked storage shed located in the driveway/side yard; perfect for bikes, garden tools, or grill.
With only one step down into the garage and two steps to the driveway, accessibility is seamless. All of this is just a short walk to downtown West Chester, placing you moments from award-winning restaurants, bars, shops, courthouse, public library, golf course, YMCA, and lots of other vibrant community life.
This delightful borough home is truly distinctive! Carefully crafted, beautifully maintained, and rarely available in such a prime borough location....
