Property Description

Don’t miss this timelessly appealing William Witham fieldstone Cottage in Swarthmore Hills! Enjoy the flow and symmetry of this 5-bedroom home with features that will delight you at every turn.
The wide, offset stairs at the Foyer open to a spacious formal Living Room, which is large enough for two separate sitting areas and/or a piano. The random width pegged flooring sets the stage for the woodburning fireplace which truly is the heart of the room. Don’t miss all the windows, with wide, deep sills from front to back. The Living Room is open to the formal Dining Room, where you will enjoy dinner with your friends with a roaring fire nearby around which you will later gather for a final glass of wine. So spacious, so elegant. During the spring and summer, you will live on the lovely, screened Porch through French doors to the side, which in turn opens onto a flagstone Patio with built-in gas grill and a second terrace for dining. The renovated Kitchen, centrally located, looks out onto the rear flower garden from a 6’ custom built picture window and includes granite counters, cherry cabinets with ample storage, gas fired range, and double oven – all appliances stainless steel and less than five years old. Step down from the Kitchen to the adjoining Family Room, which has a door to the Basement, back yard and separate, custom built 2-car Garage. Waterproofed and functional, the Basement has been the site of many a post-season soccer party for the kids. And, for those who work from home, there’s a private Office in the front of the house with a spectacular head-on view of the quiet, tree-shaded cul-de-sac. The ground floor also includes a powder room.
The second floor has all 5 bright and cheerful bedrooms and 2 full baths. Each one with a personality, the showcase is the Primary Bedroom. This suite three rooms for bedroom, bathroom, and dressing room/second office brings a special, private retreat just for you. The beautifully renovated Master Bath features granite counters, custom cabinetry, and the latest Robern built-in medicine cabinets. The second floor also contains an easily accessible low attic storage area plus access to a huge, floored third floor attic that could be turned into living space.
The lot is larger than average at 0.47 acres; pin oak, river birch, and copper beech trees provide shade for a well-landscaped yard. Roof, furnace, air conditioner, and water heater have all been replaced in the last five years.
A small, highly desirable borough in Delco, Swarthmore is known for its beautiful tree-lined streets and historic homes. Guernsey once was part of Riverview Estate where Guernsey cows grazed. Swarthmore is also home to Swarthmore College, a gem where paved walkways and curated wood trails are open to the community. I-95, Rt 476, trains to Philly and trolleys to Penn are easy and accessible.
