Welcome home, to 224 Farnham Rd. This stunning 3 bedroom, 2 full bath, brick colonial, features over 1600+ square feet ( above grade), and an additional 628sf below. Located in one of the most desirable enclaves of Havertown Pennsylvania, this home is uniquely positioned just 12 houses away from Chatham Elementary School. 224 has been loved and cared for by only two owners since its construction in 1951, and has been meticulously maintained by both the entire time. The roof was newly replaced in 2021 by the previous owners, a new HVAC system installed in the fall of 2023, a new water heater installed this winter 2026, along with a new dryer, and a 200 Amp electric panel with dedicated 20 amp connections in the living room and office ( 2022). As you walk up, you'll notice the two dogwoods in the front yard, the home's classic red brick, and black shutters flanking the paneled windows. As you enter into the living room, you'll immediately realize the abundant natural light at 224 is overwhelming. During the morning hours the home is flooded with sunlight, as kids and families walk to school. Notice the newly refinished hardwood floors, hearty trim work, and fresh paint. The dining room is a great size, allowing flow, from the living room to the kitchen and great for large parties, or relaxed evenings in. Entering the kitchen, you'll love the retro style cabinetry, preserved to perfection, with newly installed stainless steel appliances, extra cabinetry, and lovely space for a cafe table; to enjoy morning coffee or late night cocktails! Passing the pantry closet, and rear side door, you enter the casual family room. Two extra closets, a first floor bathroom with shower stall, and rear side entrance can serve this room as not only a den or second living space, but also a FIRST FLOOR PRIMARY suite!! Heading upstairs, the beautiful hardwoods continue. The hallway has a linen closet, and main bathroom, with tub and shower. The 3 bedroom spaces are large, with deep closets and tons of natural light. The lower level basement houses the HVAC system, water heater, washer and dryer, and plenty of space to finish as another living space, or just use as extra storage. On long summer nights, or crisp Autumn days, the back yard has served as a lovely area to entertain friends and family on the paver patio and in the fenced in yard! Be sure to book a tour of this beautiful Havertown gem, this one will not last long!

Welcome to this meticulously maintained home lovingly cared for by the original owners! This charming beautifully landscaped brick Colonial in the highly desirable Chatham Park neighborhood offers a family room addition with a full bath. The pride of ownership is evident throughout every inch of this home! As you enter the home you will find hardwood floors, a spacious living room with an abundance of light, and a formal dining room. Adjacent to the dining room is the sparkling eat-in kitchen with white cabinets and countertops. There is a pantry that could be converted into a mud room and a door providing a convenient exit to the driveway and backyard. The addition, which is currently a family room, completes the first floor and is accessed off the living room as well as the kitchen. This room with a private bath, two closets, and windows with a view of the beautifully landscaped backyard would be ideal for a fourth bedroom, office, or place to entertain guests! Heading up to the second floor, you’ll find the primary bedroom with a walk-in closet, 2 additional bedrooms, a hall bath, and a hall closet. There is attic space accessible through a bedroom closet. The insulation in the attic was upgraded over the original. The private large-level backyard has vinyl fencing and comes with a shed for extra outside storage. The dry basement is unfinished and provides plenty of storage space or an option for additional entertainment or workout area. The roof was completely replaced in 2021 along with flashing and a ridge vent. Gutters were replaced and leaf guards were added. Vinyl replacement windows can be found throughout the home. There is an alarm system hardwired in the home available for buyers to continue service. With easy access to major highways, restaurants, and local attractions, not to mention walkability to the local schools, parks, and trails, this location is ideal! Don’t miss this opportunity to make your own memories in this wonderful home!
