Property Description
Welcome to this absolutely stunning 5 BR/3.5 BA brick Colonial that has been lovingly and tastefully restored! This house maintains it's old world charm, architectural interest and substantial construction yet with newly restored hardwood flooring and fresh paint throughout, as well as, replaced electric, updated bathrooms and a fully renovated kitchen, this home is move-in ready! Situated on a quiet street, just a stone's throw away from the charming town center as well as the Swarthmore-Rutledge Elementary School, this house has a classic beauty all its own. Spacious rooms, delightful built-ins, and gleaming inlaid hardwood floors that have recently been refinished, are just a few of the highlights! Flagstone steps lead up to a stately front door with white columns on either side. The spacious Center Hall has a fabulous view of the grand staircase straight ahead. To the right, the foyer opens into a huge Living Room with an elegant wood burning fireplace with brick surround flanked by built-in shelves. There are two sets of French doors that lead to a wonderful, covered porch with plenty of room for entertaining. To the left of the Foyer is a bright, spacious Dining Room with a built-in corner hutch and chair rail. Adjacent to the Dining Room is a recently renovated Kitchen, with a quaint breakfast area as well as the main Kitchen that boasts brand new stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. A door leads to the private and bucolic backyard. Just off the kitchen is a conveniently located laundry room with a half bath. The lovely wooden staircase, with a large landing and huge window, lead to a second floor with four bedrooms. There are 3 traditional bedrooms, all well-sized with lots of windows and beautiful hardwood floors, which share a full hall bathroom. The larger Master Bedroom has two closets, a separate sitting room and a full Bathroom. There is an enchanting sleeping porch with three walls of windows just off the sitting area that overlooks the lush backyard. On the third level, there are two more large rooms, both with ample closets, and lots of charm and natural light. The larger of these rooms has been used as a Family Room and has recessed lighting - the other as a Bedroom with full bath, complete with claw-footed tub. The entire house has been freshly painted and is in pristine condition! The unfinished basement is immaculate, and great for additional storage. There is also a lovely detached brick 2-Car garage.
