About This Home

As of July 2021

Spacious and beautifully appointed colonial now available in Swarthmore! Just steps away from Swarthmore College and its amazing walking trails, this fabulous home offers lush landscaping, multiple outdoor areas for enjoyment and plenty of privacy in the award winning Wallingford-Swarthmore school district. Enter the sun filled Center Hall with gorgeous hardwood floors and one is immediately struck by how open and spacious this home feels. A formal Dining Room is on the right and a gorgeous Living Room on the left both with French Doors which are just some of the lovely architectural details that have been preserved in this home. The house is a perfect blend of old and new as exemplified by the living room with built in bookshelves and a fireplace which boasts a beautiful original mantle yet offers the convenience of being recently converted to gas. The adjacent Sunroom is surrounded by windows and built-in shelving with a door to the patio and would be an amazing space for a playroom, home office or music studio. There is a glass-paned pocket door off the LR which leads to the huge Family Room that is filled with natural light from the many skylights and windows and has sliding doors overlooking the expansive flagstone patio and lovely backyard. The family room opens up to the beautifully renovated gourmet Kitchen which features granite countertops, GE appliances, new Bosch dishwasher and many thoughtful appointments including a huge pantry with pull out shelves, display shelving, a wine fridge, extra stainless-steel sink and more. The second floor is equally spacious and features a huge Main Bedroom with windows on three walls and ample closets, 2 additional Bedrooms and an updated Hall Bath with stone tile and glass shower. The third floor has two additional Bedrooms, another Full Bath and a wall of built-in shelves. The house also has many outdoor features including a two-car Garage with impressive work bench and additional shed for storage, a relaxation tub (or built-in sandbox), a charming Covered Porch and an enchanting Pergola with whimsical hanging lights on the ivy clad canopy which is made from reclaimed redwood. The natural flow of this turn-key home is amazing and with dimmable recessed lighting, handsome hardwood floors, a new roof and access to the multiple outdoor sanctuaries at every turn, this house lends itself perfectly to both impressive entertaining as well as everyday family enjoyment…all in the desirable borough of Swarthmore.
