One block from Main Street, this character-filled cottage comfortably hosts up to 4 guests with a king bedroom, queen bedroom, and office/daybed, plus central heating, air conditioning, high-speed Wi-Fi, and free street parking as available. The space The Chandler Cottage pairs historic character with a cozy, curated setting in the heart of walkable Kennett Square. Bright, inviting rooms retain the charm of this c. 1895 semi-detatched townhome while offering practical comforts for a relaxed stay. The main level includes a living/dining room with a slipcovered sofa, slipper chairs, vintage coffee table, dining table for four, 50-inch Roku TV for your streaming logins, books, board games, and a vintage console desk workspace. Comcast high-speed Wi-Fi is provided. The warm galley kitchen features patterned tile floors, shaker cabinets, butcher-block counters, and a vintage spice shelf. It is stocked with cooking basics, dishes, cookware, spices, olive oil, coffee, tea, and more, including: • Keurig with K-cups • French press and 5-cup drip coffee maker • Electric kettle, toaster, blender, microwave, refrigerator/freezer with ice maker, dishwasher, and electric stove/oven • Brita filtered-water pitcher, dish soap, and dishwasher pods Upstairs are a king bedroom, queen bedroom, and office with a standard twin daybed. All bedrooms have memory-foam mattresses, luxury cotton linens, designer pillows, closet/dresser storage, room-darkening shades, and ceiling fans. The shared hall bath has an oversized single-sink vanity, fully tiled walk-in shower, NATIVE shampoo, conditioner, and body wash, plus fluffy towels. Central heating and air conditioning help keep the cottage comfortable year-round. A Pack ’n Play/travel crib and folding high chair are available for families. The unfinished basement has a washer and dryer, with detergent, dryer sheets, and a drying rack provided. Enjoy coffee or people-watching on the semi-covered front patio, furnished with a vintage loveseat, chairs, and bench; cushions are set out on request or during prime weather. A small covered porch off the kitchen has outdoor table seating, and the large private backyard is not fully fenced. The house is located 1 block off the Main Street in the borough. While we love its walkable location, being in the heart of town does come with street noise. We are very close to the new $20M library and within easy walking distance to the main restaurants and shops. Street noise is to be expected. You are right in town. Please-no cats allowed (I have an allergy!). Dogs are OK with notice and an additional pet fee. If bringing a dog, please make sure you have it on your reservation and the pet fee will be automatically added. No smoking/vaping on the property, no parties without permission and no more than 4 people allowed on the property at any given time. Guest access You’ll have private access to the full townhouse, including the front patio, covered porch, private backyard, and basement laundry area. One small owner’s closet in the living room is not accessible. Self check-in is available via the Eufy smart lock/keypad; your check-in code will be sent through Airbnb messages before arrival. Free on-street parking may be available directly in front of the house; off-street parking is not offered. Other things to note This is a historic two-story home with the character and quirks that come with its age. All bedrooms and the shared bathroom are on the second floor. The original stairs to the second floor are irregular and may not suit every guest; basement stairs are also quirky. The washer and dryer are in the unfinished basement. For safety, please do not allow children in the basement. Exterior security cameras are present on the property. Long-term stays, luggage dropoff, and cleaning during your stay are available. We are right in town, we have neighbors and we are walkable to everything. Street noise is to be expected.
