Property Description
Don't miss this lovely Colonial Farmhouse located in the wonderful Borough of Swarthmore. Built in the early 1900's, this house has all the charm of an older home, but also has all the conveniences of modern living ? truly the best of both worlds. With 4 Bedrooms, 2 Baths and over 1600 square feet of living space, there is a place and a space for everyone and everything! There is a delightful covered porch along the front of the home, then enter into a large Living Room with a gas fireplace with painted brick surround. This room extends across the entire front of the house, and has lovely hardwood floors which continue throughout the entire first floor. The Dining Room is located just behind the Living Room, and is completely open to the Kitchen. This Kitchen area has been renovated with attractive Cherry Cabinets and rich black soapstone countertops. The appliances are all stainless steel, and the refrigerator, double oven and gas cooktop are made by Viking, and the dishwasher is made by Bosch. Just off the kitchen is a full bath, where the laundry is also housed. There are sliding glass doors that lead from the Dining Room into a bright and airy Sunroom, with vaulted ceilings, skylights, and 2 walls of windows. This is a wonderful space for entertaining! Up the turned wooden staircase, there are 3 Bedrooms, all with ceiling fans and hardwood floors. There is also an office on this level with built-in shelving. A full hall Bath, with a combined shower/bathtub, completes the 2nd level. On the 3rd floor, there is another Bedroom and an additional area that could be used as a Family Room, Study or extra storage space. Dormer ceilings add extra character to this space. There is a full, unfinished basement that has a utility sink, a workbench and lots of room for storage. There is a wonderful backyard that is completely fenced in. Convenient to Septa trains, major highways. Being sold as-is ready for some new loving! Former Buyers financing fell through.
