Property Description

This light-filled and lovingly updated colonial is located right in the heart of Swarthmore
Borough. Step inside for a taste of the classic wood floors and soft, neutral colors found
throughout the home. To the right of the entry, the living room spans the house from front to
back, with bright windows and a charming fireplace with a gas insert. Flanking the fireplace are
French doors leading to the sunroom. This recently enclosed space with a ceiling fan and plenty
of outlets, offers three walls of Andersen windows with lush views over the garden. Perfect for
working from home, studying, or just curling up with a cup of tea and watching the seasons
change, this peaceful space will always be a favorite with owners. On the other side of the
entry, the dining room boasts a glass front corner cabinet and more views of the property
through two windows and a glass slider. The renovated kitchen features white cabinets with
glass fronts, granite countertops, and stainless-steel appliances. A handy powder room
completes the first floor. Upstairs, the primary bedroom stretches from the front of the house
to the back with peaceful views over the trees wrapping around three walls of the house. Two
closets (one of which is expanded) keep the space neat and tidy. Two additional bedrooms,
each with two windows, a ceiling fan, and a closet, may also be found on the second floor. A
door from the third bedroom leads up to the newly finished, unheated attic space. A large room
with painted wood floors and recessed lighting makes a perfect reading nook or playroom. A
second finished room with charming quarter windows is currently being used as a generous
storage space. The unfinished basement offers outside egress and a French drain system with
sump pump, and makes a lovely workshop. Outside, a deck off the dining room spills onto a
large stone patio with a wooden privacy fence and a picturesque trellis arch with a gate. Off the
patio are two additional trellis arches – one leads to the driveway, and the other to the great
big level lawn. Mature arbor vitae and other evergreen plantings provide a natural privacy
screen from the outside world. Cross the emerald lawn, under the canopy of a glorious maple
tree, to find a child’s paradise, including a wooden swing set, and a magnificent tree fort
overlooking the whole property. The one-car, detached garage has been incorporated into the
lawn space, and provides wonderful storage for outdoor furniture and toys. A newer shed is
home to lawn and garden equipment. Sensible upgrades include a new gas boiler (2018) and
hot water heater (2018). Recessed lighting and ceiling fans throughout much of the house add
comfort and ambiance. The location across from award-winning Swarthmore-Rutledge school,
and just two blocks from the town center and its public library, shops, and train station make it
impossible not to enjoy all the wonderful community activities Swarthmore Borough has to
offer. 213 N. Princeton is just fifteen minutes from the Philadelphia International Airport by car,
and half an hour from downtown Philadelphia by car or train.
