Description

If you are seeking a home that hugs you as you walk through the door, this one does! on par with the charm of this craftsman gem is the location - this home truly is walkable to the heart of swarthmore
(5-minutes to the septa rail station, the co-op, swarthmore farmers market, library, and restaurants; and a 15-minute drive to the philadelphia airport). a fireplace with custom benching is the focal point of the spacious living room. a spectacular array of windows and a built-in bookcase along with the light tone of the original hardware floors contribute to a peaceful, bright setting. there is exceptional millwork throughout - notice the floor to ceiling built-in shelving in the library/main level office. the formal dining room is large yet still inviting and comfortable, and includes a custom stained glass. the kitchen is updated and is suited to the chef in need of gas cooking and abundant cabinetry. unique touches continue in the kitchen, where a mosaic imported from turkey frames the stove. the main level includes a mudroom, stackable washer and dryer, and full bathroom. on the upper level, there are four bedrooms, one of which is presently used as an art studio. a skylight casts natural light from the vaulted ceiling. the beautifully appointed second floor bathroom includes a soaker tub. the three additional bedrooms are spacious, each with abundant closets. additional storage is also available in the attic and basement. this home has been well-maintained with new hvac (2022); washer/dryer (2021).
this residence also features a detached two-car garage, which is rare in swarthmore. the two large decks afford privacy and are excellent for outdoor entertaining. oberlin avenue is a quiet and serene setting. there are only eleven homes on the street. it’s peaceful. the home is surrounded by lush landscaping, with beauty abounding in every season. you will find a multitude of routes for enjoying your daily walks or runs, including the swarthmore college campus and grounds.
here you will find charm, convenience, a comfortable size, and award-winning wallingford-swarthmore schools, and easy access to regional events. all very attractive features and why this home won’t last long on the market.
