Welcome to 418 W Fourth Avenue, a 2 bedroom, 1 bath home in the historic borough of Parkesburg. It’s being sold as-is, which makes it a great opportunity for first-time buyers, investors, or anyone ready to add their own personal touch. The seller is open to reasonable concessions based on inspection findings.
A covered front porch welcomes you home and is perfect for morning coffee or relaxing evenings. Inside, the first floor has hardwood floors, a living room, and a separate dining room with a charming built-in corner cabinet. The eat-in kitchen opens to the backyard. Upstairs are two bedrooms and a full bath with a classic claw-foot tub. The full unfinished basement holds the washer and dryer and has plenty of storage, plus room for a workshop, hobby space, or future improvements. Window air conditioning units are included.
The private backyard is one of the home’s best features. It backs up to mature trees instead of neighboring homes, so you get a peaceful natural backdrop. It’s a great setting for gardening, outdoor dining, or unwinding at the end of the day.
Parkesburg has small-town character and easy regional access. The Parkesburg train station is served by Amtrak’s Keystone Service, with trains east toward Philadelphia and New York and west toward Lancaster and Harrisburg. Routes 10, 30, and 372 connect you to Coatesville, Exton, and the rest of Chester County.
Local dining includes Victory Brewing Company’s Parkesburg taproom, Rocco & Anna’s Ristorante Italiano, Pizza Villa, and longtime favorite Harry’s Hotdogs. Shopping, grocery stores, and everyday conveniences line the Route 30 corridor. Lancaster County’s markets, outlets, and attractions are a short drive west.
For recreation, borough-owned Minch Park has a playground, pavilion, gazebo, basketball and tennis courts, a football field, and two baseball fields. Chester County parks and trails such as Hibernia County Park and Wolf’s Hollow County Park are nearby. The home is in the Octorara Area School District.
Whether you’re looking for your first home or your next investment, 418 W Fourth Avenue is ready for your vision. Schedule your showing today!
