Spanning 1,774 square feet of heated living space, the West Chester 8619 is a two-story Craftsman home optimized for a 32-foot width and 50-foot depth footprint. The exterior profile is defined by a 7:12 roof pitch and a welcoming covered front porch, achieving a maximum building height of 28 feet 7 inches. This configuration provides a classic architectural presence while maintaining efficient lot utilization.
The main level encompasses 945 square feet of interior space, organized around an open-concept core that includes a family room with a central fireplace. The kitchen is equipped with a large island, an eating bar, and a dedicated walk-in pantry, all positioned to maintain sightlines into the breakfast area. A ground-floor den offers a versatile space for a home office or study, while a powder room and a laundry room with direct garage access provide practical utility for the main floor.
Occupying 829 square feet, the second level contains the private quarters. The primary suite includes a walk-in closet and a bathroom with double vanity sinks. Two secondary bedrooms share a full bathroom, and an additional loft space provides a flexible zone for a media area or reading nook. The 8-foot ceiling heights on this level contrast with the 9-foot ceilings on the first floor, creating a distinct spatial hierarchy between the levels.
Structural integrity is maintained through 2x4 wall framing and a 9-foot basement height, which allows for future expansion into a recreation or utility zone. The 459-square-foot front-load garage accommodates two vehicles and contributes to the total structure size of 2,233 square feet. The design balances verticality with usable floor area to support long-term residential requirements.
