Description
Fantastic opportunity in the heart of Swarthmorewood! This brick twin with a first-floor family room addition is truly unlike anything else you'll find in Swarthmorewood. Pull into the private driveway and enter through the side entrance. First Floor: Enjoy hardwood flooring throughout the living and dining areas. Off the formal living room is a bonus family room addition, perfect for extra living space. The dining room flows into the open kitchen, separated by a breakfast peninsula. The kitchen is outfitted with quartz countertops (2024), designer cabinetry, and a tile backsplash. A first-floor powder room completes this level. Second Floor: The second floor features updated flooring and fresh paint throughout (2025). Three perfectly sized bedrooms and a fully updated hall bathroom (2016) await, along with an incredibly rare second-floor laundry area—something you don't often see in Swarthmorewood twins. Basement: The finished basement offers plank flooring (2017) and serves as an additional family or entertaining space—ideal for a man or woman cave. There’s also a utility area for extra storage. Exterior: Step out from the kitchen to a private, fenced-in yard—oversized for this area. There’s a small deck (2025) off the side steps, a patio off the back steps, and plenty of yard space. A shed (2017) provides additional outdoor storage. Additional Upgrades Include: Flooring in basement & upstairs (2017) New paint for basement, bathrooms, master bed, living room, and kitchen (2025) Updated appliances (2020, 2023) A/C and heating (2016) Upgraded electrical panel (2019) Renovated hall bath (2016) and half bath (2023) Front door and basement door replaced (2025) Roof replaced (2017) Deck completed (2025) Local Vibes: Enjoy easy access to I-95 and 476, a quick ride to PHL, Delaware, or New Jersey. You’re within walking distance of all the best spots on MacDade Boulevard—like Wawa, 320 Market, and Milmont Pizza—and just a short walk or ride to downtown Swarthmore. Perfectly located in one of my favorite neighborhoods in Ridley Township!

The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
