Fairytale colonial on the outside, light-filled and expanded on the inside, this classic Swarthmore home is set on an extra-deep lot on tree-lined Park Avenue and offers a world of potential. Step into the great big living room for a taste of the charming nooks and crannies found throughout this circa 1928 home. Banks of bright windows let in soft light, while copious built-ins, including a pair flanking the gas fireplace, allow plenty of opportunities to showcase beloved books and artwork. An over-sized opening from the living room frames the formal dining room, which boasts a charming built-in china cupboard as well as large windows and access to the front-to-back stair, which may also be reached from the living room. The spacious eat-in kitchen is bathed in natural light from a wall of windows and a glass door to the deck. Currently featuring white cabinets with Corian tops, a peninsula, huge double pantries, and plenty of lighting, this space could become a gourmet kitchen and eating area, or be enjoyed just as it is. The sunny den is a perfect cozy spot for board games or movie nights. Off the den, the two-story addition begins with a flexible first-floor suite, including a sitting room with a door to the driveway, a powder room, and a spacious fourth bedroom or bonus room with big windows overlooking the backyard and deck. This suite has wonderful potential for a home-office space, or could become a first floor au pair or in-law suite. The second floor offers Central Air and is home to the luxurious primary suite, boasting a large bedroom with a wall of mirrored closets and four bright windows as well as a sitting room, a full bath and a large sunroom with a balcony overlooking the backyard. Two additional bedrooms, and a laundry room with closet (formerly the fourth bedroom) may also be found on the second floor, as well as a full hall bath, linen closet, and pull-down stairs to the floored storage attic. Outside, a large rear deck overlooks the great big backyard. The lot is extra deep with so much potential for an avid gardener to enjoy. Sensible features include the many Pella replacement windows, second floor Central Air, which was added in 2017, and gas heat and hot water. The original charm and features preserved in this very special home make it a rare and exciting opportunity for a buyer who appreciates the character and location, and wishes to renovate their new home to taste. An ideal location close to town, with off-street parking, makes village fair and parade days so much fun. And, of course, the local shops, public library, co-op grocery store, and train station make everyday life more convenient and fun. Served by prestigious Wallingford-Swarthmore schools, 414 Park Avenue is just twenty minutes from the Philadelphia International Airport by car, and thirty minutes from downtown Philadelphia by car or train. Just one visit and you won’t want to say goodbye.
