Welcome to 979 Kennett Way! This home is tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Kennett Village and offers a beautiful blend of comfort and convenience within the vibrant Hershey’s Mill community. This Donegal Model is designed for effortless one-floor living, starting with the ease of a detached garage and a welcoming entryway that leads into a bright, airy floor plan. The main living and dining areas feel instantly like home, filled with natural light and anchored by a classic wood-burning fireplace that sets a cozy tone for chilly evenings. If you love indoor-outdoor flow, the sliding glass doors lead to a private patio, a peaceful spot surrounded by trees where you can enjoy a morning coffee.

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.
