About This Home
As of July 2014Quintessential Thayer built 1920's Colonial with 5 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and 2 powder rooms located on one of the nicest tree-lined streets in town. The professionally landscaped yard and gorgeous perennial gardens offer year-round interest outside, while the interior of this lovely, spacious home has been updated to today's specs yet has lost none of its original charm. The roomy eat-in kitchen has a center island, granite counters, solid cherry cabinets; Wolf stove, Bosch dishwasher, and Waterworks fixtures, and has back stairs to the 2nd floor. First floor laundry room/mudroom has new front-loading washer/dryer and fantastic storage. Other great details include beautiful chestnut woodwork, hardwood floors, recessed lights, central air, a friendly floor plan, and great storage and closet space throughout. Lots of large windows bring in the natural light, making this move-in ready home bright and cheery! Close proximity to library, train station, the Co-op, Swarthmore College, and SRS elementary school and convenient to shopping, 476 and I-95, the Airport, Wilmington, and downtown Philadelphia.
