About This Home

As of June 2022

Welcome to another RS Lee total transformation of a Swarthmore home. The inviting new covered front porch welcomes you to this beautiful renovation. Once you enter the front door your eyes will be drawn to the decorative shiplap wall in the living room. The large new windows and gleaming hardwood floors add elegance and light throughout. The completely redesigned kitchen has plenty of white cabinets for storage, leathered granite counter tops and new efficient stainless steel appliances. The kitchen is open to the bright dining room with large sliding doors to a 26’ X 12’ Timbertech rear deck. The lower level is just a few steps down from the kitchen with a lovely family room, a new powder room and another large slider to a beautifully hardscaped patio. The second level is home to an en-suite bedroom with a walk-in closet and private new full bath which was the original primary suite. The two additional bedrooms share the new hall bath on the second level. A third level has been added to include the new large primary suite with vaulted ceilings, a large walk-in closet, a huge primary bath with Carrera marble double vanity and a large glass stall shower. The new level also has a laundry room with plenty of space for folding. The third level comes complete with its own high efficiency heat pump. Improvements include: new larger energy efficient windows throughout, new roof, new wiring, new plumbing, 2 new high efficiency heat pumps with gas back up for heat and central air, new insulation, professionally organized closets throughout. This picture-perfect home with an attached garage is within walking distance to the Ville, College, Co-op, R-3 train station, library, community center and the many wonderful shops and restaurants as well as being in the award winning Wallingford-Swarthmore school district.
