About This Home

As of August 2014

This is the one you've been waiting for! Magnificent turn-of-the-century home just two blocks from the train on a beautiful tree-lined street. Lovingly restored home offering a fabulous blend of old world charm and modern conveniences. Soaring 9-foot ceilings, grand central staircase, elegant princess Balcony, a second "servants'" staircase off the Kitchen, oak floors and more - all recall a bygone era. These charming elements have been combined with modern updates like: central air, a LUXURIOUS Master Bedroom Suite, radiant heated Bathroom floor, energy efficient windows, renovated Bathrooms, new electrical systems and so much more. First floor includes: oversized open-plan Living Room with fireplace (non-working), Dining Room, Eat-In Kitchen with a wide plank wood floor and Powder Room. Second floor offers three Bedrooms, including an INCREDIBLE Master Bedroom Suite with custom floor to ceiling maple wood built-ins (with drawers, customizable clothes hanging lengths and shoe racks!), his and her desks and remote controlled custom shades. There is a Master Bath with recessed lighting, radiant heated marble floor, and a marble-lined rain shower. Two more nice-sized Bedrooms are on this floor plus a lovely Sitting Area at the top of the stairs. There is another completely renovated Bathroom on this floor with custom European fixtures, designer sink and cabinet. The third floor is expansive and includes another Bedroom plus Sitting Area with a wide plank wood floor (or subdivide this space into two Bedrooms and a full Bath!). Downstairs there is also a spacious "dry" Basement featuring a newly poured concrete slab floor plus a below slab drainage system and dual sump pumps (This could easily become a Family Room, Media Room or Office!). The Basement also features a Laundry Area with TWO new state-of-the-art high capacity washers with a matching dryer (wonderful for large families or busy working parents!!). Outside, you'll find a detached brick and slate roof two car garage and garden storage bay. The volume of the garage is large enough to create a second floor Office or Au Pair Suite! The possibilities are endless! All this on a gracious lot surrounded by large shade trees. Award-winning WSSD Schools! And just two blocks from the "ville" featuring shops, restaurants, a library and more. Don't miss this opportunity to own this Swarthmore gem!
