Tremendous opportunity for multifamily living or investment with perfect location in award winning Haverford School District. This "single family" home is zoned residential but has a special exception to allow for use as a legal duplex. So many possibilities--live in one and use the rental income from the other to pay your mortgage, separate extended family living onsite with 2nd unit used as an in-law suite, or rent both for a great rental income opportunity. This beautiful traditional style home situated on a level, corner lot offers a myriad of possibilities for both convenience, functionality, and privacy. Park in your freshly painted two car garage, or driveway with space for four vehicles, located off Earlington Road. Planning on entertaining and need more parking? No problem, there is plenty of available street parking on Kathmere as well. This home features a combination of old world charm with some modern touches, just waiting for you to complete it to your liking with tasteful upgrades. As you walk inside, you will find a mud room entry with a door to the main level and stairs up to the second unit. The first level welcomes you with immaculately maintained solid wood floors throughout, and high ceilings adorned by crown molding. Enter into the freshly renovated kitchen with custom cabinets, brushed nickel hardware, a tile backsplash, and granite countertops. All this frames out a perfectly placed garden window, allowing you to grow herbs year round! Just off the kitchen is access to the generously sized composite plank deck, with steps down to a 95% fenced in back yard, that could easily be fully enclosed with one more panel. Also on this level are two bedrooms, two full bathrooms, a dining room, living room with a beautiful working stone fireplace, and an enormous bonus room complete with a bay window and sitting sill. This bonus room could be used as an office for two, an exercise room, or simply as a morning room to enjoy some breakfast in the sunshine. Proceed upstairs to the second unit and arrive at a another mudroom/landing with lots of space to store your outdoor items. Inside reveals another dwelling with two more large bedrooms, a family room, eat in kitchen with butcher block countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a walk-in pantry. Proceed up one more flight of carpeted steps to the vast third bedroom/attic recreation room--so much living space, WOW! Before you leave, don't miss the basement via the spiral staircase on the main level. It currently has a partially functional powder room, where with some creativity you could create a full bath. There is a door with egress steps to the back yard, and a "wired but non-functional" third breaker box, as if someone had planned for another unit to be built at some point. While the space is there, please verify a third unit would be legal. With this top rated school district, a new large library/event space currently being built down the street, excellent proximity to major arterial roads, Haverford town dining and shopping, and the Seller including a 1-Year American Home Shield Home Warranty, this home should move quickly. Schedule your tour TODAY before it's gone!
