Description

Welcome to this beautifully updated Dutch Colonial, tucked into one of Havertown’s most desirable spots. Step into the foyer and right into the heart of the home — a stunning kitchen and dining area that opens to the addition. The kitchen was completely redesigned in 2022 with an 11-foot island, walls opened to create a seamless flow, custom cabinetry, and GE Café appliances. The addition, filled with natural light from skylights and vaulted ceilings, makes the perfect backdrop for family meals and gatherings. The formal living room, centered by a wood-burning fireplace and custom built-ins, offers a warm and inviting space to relax. Toward the front of the home, an enclosed porch has been reimagined into a practical mudroom, home office, and creative play area — a smart use of space that keeps everything organized and functional. A powder room completes the main level. Upstairs, you’ll find three generous bedrooms. The primary suite has double closets and its own full bath with a pocket door. The two additional bedrooms share a large hall bath with plenty of storage. The lower level provides even more opportunity. With plumbing already in place for a full bathroom, it could easily be finished into a family room, in-law suite, or fourth bedroom. And if you need extra storage, the pull-down attic and detached garage/shed have you covered. Outside, the patio with a pergola extends your living space and is the perfect spot to enjoy three seasons of outdoor dining and entertaining. Just a short stroll brings you to coffee shops, restaurants, and local favorites along Darby Road, as well as the shops on Eagle Road, Brookline Boulevard, nearby parks and playgrounds, schools and the beautiful new Haverford Public Library.

The Temperature chart displays average high and low values for January and July, and is designed to provide an indication of both seasonal and daily temperature variability. The Weather Risk Index indicates the calculated risk of each type of weather event occurring in the future. This risk is based on historical localized storm events and weather patterns. The national average for each type of weather event equals a score of 100, so a score of 200 would represent twice the risk as the national average, and a score of 50 would represent half the risk of the national average.
