Anybody who reads my blogs regularly knows that I have a daily habit of WALKING in the early AM. What makes it extra special is that I "mix up" the locations of the walk and there are so many opportunities right here in West Chester with our beautiful community parks and recreation areas.

Last week, on one of the soggy mornings I went to East Bradford Park.  There are some great features of this park the least of which are that it was "created in" and surrounding two of the nicest neighborhoods of West Chester. 

You need to drive through Kenmara to get to it and it borders Cheshire Knoll on the northeast side of the park

Even though it may be rainy, there have been some great colors and views this fall.

Now that the leaves are almost all off of the trees one of my favorite haunts is the West Goshen Park, and of all things, the walkway up against the reservoir behind Ice Line.  I get my water view and have my exercise simultaneously.


This morning, it was such a bright morning I could even see ARBOURS at WEST GOSHEN through the trees.  In this photo, that is the building you see through the trees.
It looks pretty nice.

Buyers came out of the woodwork, so to speak......, the flood gates have opened.
It is obviously getting more brisk out there, there are great house choices available for Buyers in the marketplace and house prices are down.  What a BUY sign
This week I was out with 3 different Buyers and I have observed that more people are getting used to the idea of getting in on this good market.
Many of the for sale properties are having more showings.
It is really a great time to Buy.

In town West Chester, I am selling the best house across from the 8th hole of the West Chester Country club.   The property was completly redone inside and it has a granite kitchen, a 2 car garage, hardwood floors throughout.......
The real charm of this property is that it has 3 outdoor living spaces.  A big wooden deck out back, a rocking chair front porch and a cozy setting by the pond.  That's not even counting the flat back yard and the brick walkway.

If its another part of West Chester that interests you, there is a big beautiful single house on Regimental Drive that is priced way below market on an OVER acre property.  Radley Run IV is a premier neighborhood in East Bradford Township.  The neighborhood has always been desirable and properties have held their value in all markets.  The condition of this house warrants a below market price and is a real opportunity for getting some sweat equity, which means, do some work, increase the value of the house.
It is $429900 and the last sale on that street was $502K
This is a real buy.

Time to check out the inventory and see what buys you can have
