Property Description
New price! Don't miss this wonderful opportunity to own a beloved home in Swarthmore Borough - a picturesque college town known for its tree-lined streets, charming downtown and walkable lifestyle. Walk to train, schools, town, playgrounds and more. Lovingly maintained by the same family for 60+ years, 629 University Place has had only two owners in its lifetime. This lovely stone home is filled with character and charm and is ready for its next chapter. While cosmetic updates are needed, the potential is limitless.
First floor features a spacious Living Room with wood-burning fireplace, Dining Room, Powder Room, Kitchen and a delightful three season SunRoom at the rear of the home - perfect for morning coffee or unwinding in the evening. A single car garage is conveniently accessed through a doorway off the Kitchen.
Upstairs you'll find three generously sized Bedrooms plus a small Office. One Bedroom includes an attached Powder Room, with space to potentially expand into a full ensuite Bath. The Hall Bathroom offers a tub/shower combination. A staircase off the Office leads to the walkup Attic, providing terrific storage and possible expansion potential. The full, unfinished Basement offers even more space and flexibility. Outside, the backyard features a generous fully fenced in area - ideal for play, gardening or pets. Enjoy everything Swarthmore has to offer - from the seasonal Farmers Market and Food Truck-A-Thons to the public library and SEPTA Train Station to Philly. You'll appreciate the award-winning Wallingford-Swarthmore Schools, easy access to all major highways and Philadelphia International Airport (just fifteen minutes away). This is your chance to bring new life to a well-loved home in an unbeatable location.
