The potential is unlimited in this unique 4/5 bedroom, 2 bath Victorian in coveted Swarthmore Borough. Built in the 1900s, the current owners added a large addition that remains unfinished, providing you with the opportunity to design your own kitchen and baths throughout the house. As you approach the home, you’ll be greeted by a wide wrap-around covered front porch. And then, wow! You’ll be stunned by the 2-story Great Room that flows from the Entry Hall and Dining Room. Reclaimed Random width Oak flooring starts the appeal. Surrounded by windows, a field stone fireplace (with insert) at the far wall brings you in. The kitchen, although unfinished, is open to the Great Room and currently includes a cooking island with a gas cooktop, plumbing, and a sink located at a back window. However, the wall oven is broken and will require replacement. French doors at the back of the Great Room lead to a screened wooden deck, providing a lovely outdoor space. On the main floor, there is a small Den off the Entry Hall, which leads to a large unfinished room that has the potential to be converted into a first-floor Primary Suite. This room already has a small full bath and a deep closet, making it an ideal candidate for transformation. The second floor of the home features two or three bedrooms, while the third floor houses the third bedroom with an ensuite full bath. Additionally, there is an unfinished storage room on the third floor. An Opened wrap around staircase leads to the backyard French doors and the full Basement. And there’s more opportunity for renovation in the Barn, which is now an office and workshop. Extensive mature landscaping and vegtable garden provides your own private oasis in the borough. Located in the award-winning Wallingford-Swarthmore School district, it’s a short walk to the elementary school, and Swarthmore Borough restaurants, shops and trains. A crushed stone driveway provides off street parking for at least 3 vehicles. Rarely do you get the opportunity to make a home of this size your own without a total rebuild. Bring your contractors and get started!
