Property Description
This lovingly renovated and expanded Victorian is nestled on the tree-lined street of Vassar Avenue in the Borough of Swarthmore. From the moment you arrive at the property you will appreciate the beautifully designed perennial gardens that surround this home. The recently renovated front porch welcomes you inside. Step into the front entry hall to be delighted by the open floor plan, high ceilings, and hardwood flooring found throughout the first floor. To the right of the entry is an open living room with a wood burning brick fireplace flanked by custom built-ins. The open dining room/kitchen is perfect for entertaining. The kitchen boasts a large island with Silestone quartz countertops, soft close cabinetry, and four bright windows overlooking a secluded patio. A large corner pantry with a reclaimed glass door, a laundry/coat closet and a powder room may all be found in the hallway leading to the large studio/family room addition (21 x 12). The addition boasts a two-story ceiling height, with gorgeous windows throughout and French doors to the patio. The charming barn door entry makes this a great private space for an in-home office too. A picturesque Victorian staircase leads to the second floor, which is home to the primary bedroom with its sunny bay window overlooking the side yard and a walk-in closet. The large hall bath has a generous double sink and storage vanity. The second bedroom has an attached office or nursery. The third floor is home to the third and fourth bedrooms and a full bath with cozy radiant heat. Thoughtful updates include newer windows throughout, 2 zone central air conditioning, custom built-ins, custom Elfa organized closets, updated electric and plumbing, fenced in rear yard, raised organic vegetable garden beds, radiant flooring in all the bathrooms and the studio/family room and a detached two car storage garage with updated electric. This very special home is located just blocks from the center of Swarthmore, which is home to the library, Co-op grocery store, restaurants, shopping and regional rail line, as well as Scott Arboretum, the scenic campus of Swarthmore College. Downtown Philadelphia is just half an hour away by train or car, and the Philadelphia International Airport is a quick twenty minutes by car. Served by prestigious Wallingford-Swarthmore schools
