    What's special

    MOTIVATED SELLER, MOTIVATED SELLER, MOTIVATED SELLER!!! The ONLY reason this house is now priced where it is, is because initially it was over-priced at over a Million dollars. At its current price, it is a GREAT investment and opportunity to own a gorgeous home with amazing amenities in a truly special community! This is a Sensational 5 BR/3.3BA stone colonial located in the wonderful Borough of Swarthmore! Just a short distance down tree-lined streets to the town pool, soccer fields, elementary school, the downtown and the SEPTA train station! The curb appeal of this home is absolutely lovely with beautiful PA stone and beautifully manicured grounds. The inside of the main house boasts an incredible high-end gourmet kitchen with all the bells and whistles, gorgeous architectural details, a fabulous Master Bedroom with walk in closet and gorgeous bathroom with Palladium window over the soaking tub. There is a large open 3rd floor with 9' ceilings, a cork floor and recessed lighting can be a rec room, office or exercise area plus there is a bedroom and half bath. There are also adjoining quarters which can be used as an extension of the current house or a more separate space. It is magnificent for millennials, au pairs, in-laws and out of town family and friends. This space includes a large room (BR) with stone FP, full BA, W&D and on the lower level - a large bright room and a kitchenette which overlooks a side garden and a door to private flagstone patio. Wonderful multi-generational space or use as Home Based Office! 1yr Home Warranty Included
