Property Description
Situated a short walk from idyllic downtown Swarthmore and historic Swarthmore College, 419 Yale Ave is a pridefully maintained 3-story Victorian that offers an enticing blend of original character and modern updates. This 3,300 sqft home has 5 bedrooms, plus a study, 3.5 bathrooms, a finished basement, an expansive backyard, and placement within the award-winning Wallingford-Swarthmore School District. Out front, charming curb appeal is on display in the lush shrubbery, manicured lawn, mature trees, and a wraparound porch. Inside, you're welcomed by a foyer that showcases the intricate millwork, crown molding, and wainscotting found throughout the home. Original hardwood floors extend through a wide archway into the living room that is filled with natural light from a set of bay windows. Pocket doors open to a formal dining room with more bay windows and plenty of space for entertaining. Off the main hall, there's a split staircase, a powder room, and a mudroom with a side entry from the driveway. The hub of the home is sure to be the large, sunlit kitchen at the rear of the main level. It has a breakfast nook, a peninsula with seating, generous counter space, custom cabinetry, a double sink, stainless steel appliances, including a wine fridge, and lots of picturesque windows. Patio doors open to the fenced backyard, where tall, shady trees create a private oasis during the spring and summer months for outdoor play, gardening, barbecues, and alfresco dining on the paver patio. On the home's second level, two bedrooms and a full bathroom sit off the stairs. A study leads to the hotel-like primary suite that boasts a large bedroom with vaulted ceilings, an arched window with a seat overlooking the backyard, two bespoke walk-in closets, and an attached bathroom with a double vanity, soaking tub, and a glass-enclosed shower. Up on the third level, there are two more bedrooms, another full bathroom, and attic storage. Additional living space is found in the finished basement, perfect for a den and playroom, along with a storage room, and a laundry room that has access to the backyard. Utilities include central a/c, gas forced-air heat, radiators, and gas hot water. 419 Yale Ave is a fantastic home with an equally fantastic location! Swarthmore is a sought-after neighborhood known for historic charm, tree-lined streets, and a welcoming sense of community. Restaurants, cafes, and local businesses are downtown, and Swarthmore College sits on sprawling bucolic land with its own arboretum. There's also easy access to shopping along Baltimore Pike, I-476, I-95, and Center City Philadelphia via the SEPTA Regional Rail. Schedule your tour today!
