Listing description

Some homes are defined by their updates. Others by their character. 408 Pennsylvania Ave gives you a little bit of both. Set on over half an acre in the heart of Avondale, this 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home offers the kind of space that is increasingly hard to find, with thoughtful improvements including a new roof (2024), refinished hardwood floors (2024), and a new shed (2024). Inside, the character is evident from room to room. Hardwood floors, built-ins, French doors, arched openings, oversized windows, and original details give the home a warmth that simply can’t be recreated. The parlor and dining spaces offer plenty of room to gather, while the expansive living room, centered around a wood-burning fireplace, feels like the natural heart of the home. The eat-in kitchen provides generous storage and workspace, with additional rooms nearby that add flexibility to the floor plan. One of the things that makes this home special is just how much usable space there is. Home office, playroom, reading room, nursery, studio, hobby space- you have room to decide what works for you. Upstairs, spacious bedrooms continue that feeling, including a primary bedroom with two walk-in closets. Additional bonus spaces offer even more opportunities to make the home fit the way you live. Outside, the deck overlooks a large backyard framed by mature trees, with plenty of room to relax, entertain, garden, or play. The property backs to a small neighborhood playground and recreation area, while an existing paved area provides another spot for outdoor gatherings, games, or the basketball hoop you've been meaning to get. 408 Pennsylvania Ave isn't a cookie-cutter home, and that's exactly the point. It's spacious, full of character, thoughtfully improved, and ready for its next chapter.

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.
