About This Home

As of September 2015

Enjoy your piece of the countryside just blocks from Swarthmore Borough library, shops and residential rail station! Just four blocks from the heart of town a picturesque cape cod set on a generous double lot welcomes you. Each room of this very special home is bathed in beautiful sunlight and offers peaceful views of the park-like property through efficient new windows. Oak floors and fresh neutral paint throughout make it easy to move right in and enjoy! Step through the portico to enter a spacious living room with a wood burning fireplace and large picture window. A charming corner cupboard can be found in the open dining room. The recently renovated kitchen is appointed with oak cabinets and granite countertops, double lazy susans, and a stainless steel under mount sink. The kitchen is open to the breakfast room ? a perfect spot to sip tea and read the paper. Doors from the dining and breakfast rooms lead into a cozy family room with oak floors, solid wood panels, a wood burning stove with heatilator venting, and a panoramic view of the meadow-like backyard through double picture windows. To the right of the living room a full bath and two sunny bedrooms allow easy first floor living. Upstairs two additional bedrooms feature an unusual amount of storage. A full tile bath can also be found upstairs. The lower level provides generous storage and a laundry area. A door from the breakfast room leads to an attached two-car garage ? a rare luxury in Swarthmore Borough. Enjoy the shade of mature trees as you picnic in your spacious backyard. Blocks away the R3 train is a quick twenty minutes from Center City!
