Description

Welcome to “Brook Hill,” a custom-built, all-brick mid-century modern ranch offering timeless character, thoughtful updates, and room to breathe in the heart of Chester. Set on nearly 1.2 acres, this peaceful retreat is surrounded by mature trees, established landscaping, and azaleas, camellias, and dogwoods—close to shopping, dining, and major routes. With 3 bedrooms, 2½ baths, and 3,285 square feet, the home offers generous spaces for comfortable one-level living. The 36-foot sunken living room features a restored bow window with natural light and views of surrounding greenery. Crown molding, 9-inch baseboards, solid wood six-panel doors, and an original crystal chandelier preserve the home’s distinctive charm. A family room, dining room, flex space, mudroom, and laundry room provide space to gather, work, and unwind, while two fireplaces add warmth and character. The eat-in kitchen features quartz countertops, subway tile, and newer appliances. Approximately 2,600 square feet of refinished red-oak flooring enhances the interior, and refreshed bathrooms include updated fixtures and a remodeled bath with a glass-enclosed walk-in shower. Improvements include a roof replaced in 2022, windows replaced in 2024, newer gutters and asphalt driveway, fresh interior and exterior paint, plumbing updates, and a relined furnace chimney flue. Storage includes custom closets, a spacious primary-bedroom closet, and a cedar closet. The partially finished, heated basement offers four additional rooms for hobbies, a home gym, workshop, studio, or storage. An attached artist studio adds creative space, and a heated two-car garage offers parking and workspace. Outside, enjoy a park-like setting with space for gardens, pets, and gatherings. Post lamps line the sidewalk and driveway, which accommodates four to five vehicles plus an RV or camper. An outdoor shed adds storage, and French drains surround the property. Brook Hill combines classic craftsmanship, modern comforts, and privacy with everyday conveniences close.
