Welcome to 1283 Country Lane in West Whiteland Township, offering an opportunity to restore and update a traditional two-story home in an established West Chester-area neighborhood. Built in 1963, the property features approximately 1,696 square feet of above-grade living space with 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, a fireplace, situated on approximately 0.45 acre with public water and sewer. The interior retains many of its original features and finishes and is in need of renovation and cosmetic updating, providing an opportunity for a buyer to make improvements to their own specifications. Hardwood flooring is visible in several bedrooms, and the family/living area features a stone fireplace. The garage space was converted to living space but could easily be returned to a 2 car garage. Outside, the property offers a level lot, fenced rear yard, and an in-ground pool. The home is located within the West Chester Area School District and offers convenient access to the Exton and West Chester areas. With its four-bedroom layout, sizable lot, and existing pool, this property offers considerable potential for a buyer prepared to undertake the improvements needed to bring the home up to current standards. This is a Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) property (Case# 446-125586). This property is being sold as-is, with no guarantees or warranties provided. Utilities are turned off, so please exercise caution when viewing the property. Daylight showings are recommended. All property details, including disclosures, the Property Condition Report (PCR), sale contract, and sale process, are available on HUDHomestore. Buyers are responsible for any costs associated with activating utilities for inspections, if permitted. If the plumbing system fails the pressure test, water cannot be activated for inspections. Additionally, any required Use & Occupancy (U&O) inspections are the buyer’s responsibility and expense. The property is considered to be FHA Insurable with Escrow (IE, subject to appraisal). The final escrow amount is subject to lender determination. For financing and closing, FHA and conventional loans must close within 45 days, FHA 203(k) financing within 60 days, and cash offers within 30 days. The buyer is responsible for all closing costs, including transfer tax. This is an Equal Housing Opportunity property.
