31 Fithian Ave, Merchantville, NJ 08109

This is a large family house with hardwood floors throughout. Built in 1920, it is a classic 5-window center hall Colonial from the outside. Inside, it is completely different: an Arts & Crafts interior means rich, dark oak paneling, plate rails, windows, and ceiling beams. Modern conveniences include upgraded electrical service, gas heat & central air. Built-in closets and cupboards through out the house, plus a full basement and large attic, provide plenty of storage space. A detached 2-car garage, charmingly painted to match the house, plus a fully fenced backyard are accessible by gates on both sides of the house, the sliding doors in the kitchen, and the back door from the laundry room. Neighborhood Description Merchantville is a Victorian suburb of Philadelphia, settled in the mid-1800's, with most houses dating from between 1860 and 1920. Although the commuter railroad has become a running and biking trail, the drive to Philly is only about 15 minutes or you can catch the bus just one block away on the town's main street. Our avenue is only one block long, with beautiful shade trees overarching the street. Merchantville offers an old-fashioned downtown, with the library, cafes, and our own chocolate shop, the famous Aunt Charlotte's. Merchantville is a walker's dream!
