Property Description

This exquisite Queen Anne Victorian was built in 1888 and is now available to the public for the very first time in 44 years. Guests will feast their eyes on historical architectural details that have been lovingly preserved through generations of owners. The mahogany wraparound porch welcomes you home. Step into the entry vestibule with its high ceilings and an eight-paned roundel window, for a hint of the character found throughout the house. The living room boasts a handsome decorative cut stone fireplace flanked by built-in shelves. This generous space is filled with front to back sunlight through a unique stained-glass door on the Vassar side of the property. A decorated sandstone corner fireplace adorns the formal dining room. Skylights and generous windows fill the large kitchen with soft light. This charming room has space for an island or long table, and a wall of windows overlooking the wisteria draped deck and lawn. Open to the kitchen, the cozy family room is a lovely spot to curl up with a book. A powder room and a mudroom (with first floor laundry) leading to a breezeway to the covered carport complete the first floor. The main staircase is filled with light from charming windows. Four total bedrooms, including a primary suite with a full bath, and a full hall bath may be found on the second floor. The third floor offers two large bedrooms with treetop views, and wonderful studio that could be converted into a bathroom. Perfectly located under the picturesque tree canopy of Harvard and Vassar Avenues, just blocks from the center of the village, this iconic Swarthmore home is a twenty-minute drive from the Philadelphia International Airport and thirty minutes by train or car to Philadelphia. Your creative updates will help this landmark property shine for another generation.
