About This Home

As of July 2017

Spacious custom built center hall colonial with unique brickwork. Built-in cabinets and a distinctive Mercer tile fireplace with hand-crafted harvest scenes are focal points of its large living room. Den with built-in book shelves and powder room. Formal dining room with charming window seat. Up-dated eat-in kitchen with plantation shutters, stainless steel appliances, porcelain farm sink, granite counter tops, two pantries & recessed lights. Large Master bedroom with en suite tile bath. Second floor tile bath. Built-in dressers in second bedroom. Third bedroom. Pull down Bessler stairs to a floored attic. Finished basement with Berber rugs, recessed lights, laundry, powder room, utilities and basement door leading to a 2 car garage with remote control opener. WHAT I LOVE ABOUT THE HOME: Aside from the classic beauty of the home, we loved its location. Our son & daughter could safely walk through our friendly neighbor's back yard to the Swarthmore-Rutledge elementary school just two blocks away. The school is part of the award winning Wallingford-Swarthmore School District. Nearby Swarthmore College offers outdoor concerts and lectures. The quaint town center has unique shops with a co-op grocery store, restaurants and a wonderful library. If you're into gardening, you'll love the celebrated Scott Arboretum on the college grounds. Bikers and hikers will enjoy the Leiper Trail eponymously named after the founder of the first operational railroad. The newly opened and beautiful Swarthmore Inn is a terrific gathering place with an exceptional happy hour. The period train station gives easy access to Philadelphia twenty-five minutes away. And fitness buffs will appreciate the nearby Healthplex.
