West Goshen, located in Chester County, is minutes to West Chester Borough. It's approximately 12 square miles and according to the township website, there are 20,130 folks living there. History and more facts about West Goshen Township can be found here.

There are currently 111 active listings for sale in West Goshen ranging from $179,900 to $1,875,000. A wide price range, for sure, with many really great homes for sale.

What does $179,900 buy you? There's a small 2 bedroom home for sale with 1 1/2 baths on 1.20 acres.

The property for sale for $1,875,000? 10.60 acres with 3 single family homes!

So many homes in the price ranges in between!

There are some great parks and lots of recreational activites and while I don't live in West Goshen, I do frequent the park on Fern Hill Avenue. There are great concerts there and a nice walking path! I used to take Max there on summer mornings before school sometimes to enjoy a little running around!

If you are considering a move to the West Chester area, consider West Goshen. It's a great township, conveniently located, with many fine homes to choose from.

I have a daily routine, I think a lot of people do. If you are in the Real Estate Business your daily routine is not as routine as most, it is usually an "unusual schedule", you work evenings and weekends, but I have had to build "structure" into my day in order to feel Normal. (well somewhat normal because normal isn't as fun as I like. :)

People who know me well know that they can find me out on an hour long walk any time from 6:30 AM to 8:30 AM and most days it is in West Goshen Community Park.

The park is nice, there is a loop that is almost a mile, I add a bend that overlooks the reservoir to mine and it IS a mile. I usually go around the loop at least 3 times, sometimes 4. Somedays I go to other places to walk.

Ultimately, it is a great day when I walk at the park!

ACAC Fitness and Wellness Center in West Goshen, my favorite place to get fit, is calling all pet owners! They are hosting their 1st Annual Dog Days of Summer Pet Photo Contest!

I stopped by there today and there were some really cute dog and cat photos! I honestly don't know how they'll pick second prize, because you know, my JJ will win first prize ... paws down!!

Here's my entry:

Voting will take place August 16th to August 31st with the winner in each category to be announced on September 3rd (my 50th birthday... just to see if you have kept on reading!!). Not sure what the prizes are, but I know my little baby is going to win!
