Welcome to 12541 Winfree Street, a classic brick ranch in the heart of Chester offering 2,760 finished square feet, 4 bedrooms, 3 full baths and a flexible layout that truly sets this home apart. The main level features hardwood floors, a light-filled living room with fireplace and built-ins, an inviting dining area, and a kitchen with abundant cabinetry, solid-surface countertops and stainless steel appliances. Three bedrooms and two full baths are conveniently located on the main level. Downstairs, the finished basement has been enhanced in 2026 with a newly added full bathroom, creating a true lower-level primary suite with the space and privacy to work beautifully for guests, multigenerational living or a private retreat. The lower level also offers a spacious family/game room with a second fireplace, laundry/utility space and additional storage/workshop space. One of the home's standout features is the screened porch with Solar View Memory Vinyl panels, extending the enjoyment of the space beyond the typical screened-porch season. Outside, enjoy a level, nearly half-acre lot, fenced backyard, paved driveway and outbuilding. Major updates include HVAC (2026), windows (2022), roof (2020) and water heater (2017). The fireplaces have also been inspected and cleaned. With 3 full baths, two fireplaces, generous finished living space and an incredibly versatile lower level, this home offers far more than you might expect from a traditional ranch.
