Listing description

Commanding a premier hilltop position on a quiet cul-de-sac directly across from the West Chester Country Club, and moments from the acclaimed shops and dining of downtown West Chester, this completely renovated brick colonial is the rare home that offers both an exceptional address and a turnkey interior refined at every turn. Cross the threshold and discover what classic brick colonials rarely deliver: an interior that has been wholly reimagined for the way we live today. The inviting foyer opens with immediate impact, fresh paint, newly installed luxury vinyl plank flooring, and a beautifully redesigned stairway railing signal right away that every detail has been considered. The formal living room, graced with oversized windows that pour in natural light, flows into the dining room, where tradition meets the ease of modern entertaining. And at the center of it all, a fully reimagined eat-in kitchen sets the standard: new custom cabinetry, designer quartz countertops, a handsome tile backsplash, and under-cabinet lighting that lends the space a warm, polished glow, updated in all the ways that matter most. The heart of the first floor is the generous family room, centered on a white-painted brick wood-burning fireplace, a timeless anchor for relaxed evenings and lively gatherings alike. A sliding patio door extends the living space outdoors to a beautifully appointed paver patio with a dedicated fire pit seating area, perfect for al fresco entertaining through every season. A tasteful powder room and a well-appointed mudroom and laundry with direct backyard access complete the first floor with both style and function. Ascend the newly updated staircase to the second floor, where plush new carpet runs throughout. The primary suite is a true retreat, spacious and serene, with a generous walk-in closet and a private en suite bath featuring a walk-in shower. Three additional large bedrooms, each appointed with oversized closets, share an elegantly finished hall bathroom with dual sinks and a tub/shower combination. The recently transformed lower level offers exceptional versatility, finished with new luxury vinyl plank flooring and fresh paint. It can serve beautifully as a game room, media lounge, or private retreat. A separate door leads to a generous unfinished storage area, ensuring every inch of the home has a function. Outside, the home's exterior has been meticulously refreshed to match the quality within: new gutters, curated landscaping, freshly painted shutters, and striking new front door sconces lend the façade a classic-yet-current sophistication. The oversized two-car garage adds ease and practicality without compromising the home's clean, traditional lines. Located in the award-winning West Chester Area School District, 210 James Drive is not simply move-in ready, it is an opportunity to live exceptionally well.
