Listing description

Welcome to 162 Lake Drive, a stylish and personality-filled 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offering approximately 1,639 square feet of living space, a finished lower level, one-car garage, and a fantastic backyard in a convenient Downingtown location. From the moment you step inside, this home feels anything but cookie-cutter. Hardwood floors run through much of the main level, while rich colors, custom-style wall treatments, updated lighting, and thoughtful details give the home a fresh, modern feel. The spacious living room is filled with natural light from the large front windows and features statement floral wallpaper paired with deep green board-and-batten detailing for a look that is both trendy and inviting. The living space flows into the dining area and updated kitchen, creating an easy layout for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen features crisp white cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, recessed lighting, a farmhouse sink, and plenty of workspace and storage. Just beyond, the dining area offers direct access to the rear deck, making indoor-outdoor entertaining a breeze. A convenient powder room completes the main level. Upstairs, you'll find four bedrooms, including a generously sized primary bedroom with plenty of room to create your own retreat. The additional bedrooms offer flexibility for sleeping space, a home office, playroom, or whatever suits your needs. The home's full bathrooms have also been refreshed with updated vanities and contemporary finishes, including a double-sink vanity. Need even more room? The finished lower level adds valuable flexible living space with multiple areas that can easily accommodate a family room, gaming area, home office, workout space, hobby room, or guest accommodations. Outside may be one of the home's best surprises. Step from the dining area onto the spacious rear deck, with plenty of room for both outdoor dining and a separate conversation area. Beyond the deck is a large, level backyard with mature trees and plenty of open lawn for gardening, games, pets, entertaining, or simply enjoying time outdoors. All of this is tucked into an established Downingtown neighborhood with sidewalks and mature trees, while keeping you close to local parks, recreation, shopping, dining, and the everyday conveniences of the Downingtown area. With flexible living space inside, a backyard made to be enjoyed, and a style all its own, 162 Lake Drive is ready to welcome you home!!

School millage is from the latest year certified by the Pennsylvania Department of Education (2025-26); districts adopt the next year's budgets each June, and we update when the state certifies the statewide file in the fall. Portals typically reprint the recorded 2026 bill. Pennsylvania does not reassess on sale. Estimate only. Verify with Chester County before relying on it.

Taxes use NookLocal's estimate at current millage rates, not the stale figure on the MLS. The default rate is the average 30-year rate as of July 2026; insurance is estimated at 0.35% of the price per year. Below 20% down, lenders usually add mortgage insurance, which this estimate doesn't include. Estimate only; verify before relying on it.
