About This Home

As of November 2019

Leave the hustle and bustle of Swarthmore behind as you turn down the long, meandering private driveway along a serene babbling brook, where perched atop a private wooded lot, sits your dream home protected in its own secluded world. Enter through the garage and allow the luxurious elevator to whisk you upstairs or tour around to the welcoming wrap around front porch. As you enter the Grand Foyer and glance into the Wood Paneled Library, you'll know that you have arrived at your new home and? arrived. This home has everything you want. Hardwood floors, stone fireplaces, Gourmet kitchen with two granite islands, two Sub Zero's and both formal and informal dining rooms. The main floor continues to a Grand Hall, itself large enough to stage any event, two cozy living rooms , two powder rooms and a quiet home office to launch your next venture. Master suite has two bedroom-sized side by side walk in closets, bathroom with steam shower and Jacuzzi tub, sitting room with double fireplace and a small balcony large enough to oversee your new estate. Enough words that fall short, this home must be experienced. Please, come and see and perhaps you will find the dream home that has eluded you?until today. A judge ruled that properties like this were illegally over assessed. The court ordered a County wide tax reassessment that is taking place now that will substantially lower the property taxes based on the Illegal overvaluation by tax assessor when first built. Combined with the substantially lower sales price, the taxes will be just a fraction of what they are now. See attorney letter attached to MLS. The attorney has already filed a challenge to the taxes and will continue the process until it is complete.
