About This Home
As of December 2018One look at the fairytale-charming exterior of this classic 1920s Spanish Tudor and you will fall in love. Step inside for a taste of the elegant and tranquil interior. Each room offers refinished oak floors, soft neutral colors and peaceful views over the gardens. The spacious living room features a high ceiling and handsome gas fireplace. The formal dining room welcomes guests with beautiful moldings and built-ins. Form meets function in the gourmet kitchen with its oak floors and granite counter top and backsplash. High-end appliances include a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Bosch dishwasher and Dacor gas range. The spacious family room is the perfect spot to curl up for movie night. A curving staircase leads to the second floor landing, with its window seat overlooking the trees. The spacious master suite boasts a true walk-in closet, and a sumptuously renovated full bath with timeless black and white tile. Relax in the clawfoot soaking tub, or enjoy the oversized shower with its subway tile and glass door. Two additional spacious bedrooms as well as a laundry cupboard with brand new stackable machines, and a full hall bath with original 1920s tile complete the second floor. The third floor opens onto a large loft space with skylights and plenty of built-ins. The fourth bedroom, with en suite bath, completes the third floor. Dual-zoned C/A, updated wiring, a 2-car garage with 220-volt outlet for an electric vehicle, and a newer roof on the house and garage allow efficiency and peace of mind. Arched doors from the family room and dining room lead out to the screened porch, a perfect second dining room during the warmer months. A tiered deck overlooks the Pennsylvania blue stone patio surrounding an in-ground pool with cascade fountains. Mature trees and landscaping shelter this halcyon space. Located in the heart of the Wallingford-Swarthmore School District, this home is just blocks from Swarthmore College's beautiful campus, the co-op grocery store, library, and train station to Philadelphia. Each owner of this very special property has renovated with respect for the original charm of the home. Beautiful original woodwork and built-ins, subtle recessed lighting, and restored original windows with custom interior screens and storms for modern efficiency are just a few examples of the love lavished on this property's harmonious marriage of old and new. (Please note: The 600 block of N. Chester Road is a quiet offshoot of the main portion of Chester Road.)
