Thoughtfully and tastefully renovated, 20 Brookside blends classic aesthetic with modern appeal. The home is located in a fantastic neighborhood - a lovely section of Wallingford whose historic character is marked by stately homes, gently winding avenues, large, professionally-landscaped yards and majestic trees. From the driveway, follow the home's walkway to the front door or enter through the kitchen's side door. Otherwise park in the attached garage to enter through the mud room. You'll find warm hardwood floors at every turn, refined details such as crown molding and smart built-ins for storage and workspace. The center hall opens to a string of lovely stairs and both the home's formal living room with fireplace and dining room with sunny bay window. The eat-in kitchen is located at the hall's end while access to the finished basement is below the stairs. The kitchen was renovated with white cabinets, granite counters, a subway tile backsplash, stainless appliances and a dining area. Adjacent renovated spaces such as the first floor half bath and mud room exhibit sophisticated updates for today's modern needs. An incredible finished basement awaits the new owners. Featuring a family room, kitchenette/wet bar and full bath plus a pocket door to the laundry room with additional space for a home office and gym as well as walk-out egress, it's a cleverly-allocated space - it makes hosting large gatherings or intimate get-togethers a dream and overnight guests will appreciate the privacy it provides. The home's owners suite with fully renovated en-suite bath and walk in closet as well as two additional nicely-sized bedrooms and hall bath are located on the second floor. The grounds include fine specimen and foundation plantings and a large, level back yard with shed. In the back is a paver patio near the driveway surrounded by raised garden beds, as well as a dining patio off of the living room. 20 Brookside is conveniently located to commuter routes and rail to Center City, charming Rose Valley and downtown Media. Award-winning Wallingford-Swarthmore Schools.
