Swarthmore, PA 19081

If you wait long enough, life will provide those special opportunities to make your own. This beautiful home in Swarthmore Borough is one of them. A wonderful town that is walkable and prestigious and home to one of the country's Best Colleges and Best local School Districts in Pennsylvania. This home dates back to the late 19th Century and holds all of the character that housing at that time provided. But more importantly, it has been updated in the 21st century with many of the amenities you are looking for and those which will maintain the homes' integrity for years to come. The home sits on an unusually large lot for Swarthmore and affords plenty of space to play, garden and relax. It features both a charming covered front porch to enjoy and watch the world go by plus a side yard Deck for enjoying the sun and barbeque. The first floor plan includes a Formal Living Room, an additional space for an office/study, Music room or whatever you need (A private entrance is available also). There are plenty of unique Built-ins and storage in these two rooms. There is a Formal Dining Room too. A prior addition has been updated this past year and it is stunning. Consider the Gorgeous Kitchen with Granite Tops, Stainless Steel Appliances and center Island. This opens to a large Family Room with Cathedral Ceiling, laminate flooring and access to the Deck. There is a new ceramic Full Bath on this level and Laundry has been moved to just off the main kitchen area. The second level offers 3 Bedrooms, all with unique built-ins and closet spaces. The hall bath on this level has also been updated to todays' standards and style. There are walk up stairs to an large floored attic which could possibly be additional finished living space someday. The basement is also finished and provides additional option for a play space, office or teenage hangout! There is also a full bath on this level. The lot is level and nicely landscaped. There is a long driveway that provide plenty of off-street parking and access to an older but large garage. Perfect for vehicles, storage, the next tech start-up or that garage band that you always wanted to start. If by chance you are a contractor who is looking for a space to store some of your equipment, you will notice the additional space behind the garage where you can store your stuff and not get dirty looks from your neighbors or spouse. The current owners have installed a ramp on the property which is gentle in slope and provides access to the deck and the home. A new roof was installed in 2020 to keep all of this dry and both the interior and exterior have all been recently painted. This is a beautiful house and neighborhood that has been especially loved by the owners for over 16 years. They have been part of a great community and their children have thrived from their public school education. Come and make this House, your Home!
