About this home
Nestled in a serene suburban enclave, this brick Colonial, built in 1956 and thoughtfully renovated with a two-story addition in the early 1980's, blends classic charm with a floor plan suited to today's lifestyle. Offering 2,316 square feet, four spacious bedrooms, and three-and-a-half bathrooms, this inviting home provides comfort, character, and room to grow. Hardwood floors and abundant natural light create a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The traditional layout connects the living room, formal dining room and family room to the kitchen, making everyday living and holiday entertaining effortless. The cherry wood kitchen features a built-in gas oven/range, space-saving microwave, dishwasher, and refrigerator, along with a butler's pantry offering potential for a wine bar or mudroom. Bay and double-hung windows enhance the home's natural light and charm. The living area features a gas fireplace with glass doors and a mantel, creating a cozy focal point. The fireplace has not been used in many years and is being conveyed as-is. Additional highlights include built-ins, chair railings, and an attic with pull-down stairs, an attic fan, and partial flooring for extra storage. Set on a generous 0.34-acre lot, the property features a level yard, beautifully landscaped front and rear gardens, and an expansive deck ideal for outdoor dining and relaxation. The full "walkout basement" covers the entire footprint of house and the addition. The utilities are gas heat, gas hot water and central air. Exterior lighting enhances the home's curb appeal. An attached one car garage and paved driveway provide convenient off-street parking for 3-4 cars. Enjoy an exceptional Wallingford location within walking distance of Strath Haven Middle and High Schools and the SEPTA Regional Rail station. Center City Philadelphia and Wilmington, DE, are approximately 30 minutes away, with convenient access to major routes throughout the greater Philadelphia area and Delaware. Just minutes from downtown Media and Swarthmore, you'll enjoy charming shops, restaurants, live theater, Trader Joe's, and Media's popular Dining Under the Stars, held May through September. Springhaven Golf & Country Club and Wallingford Swim and Racquet Club are also nearby. Combining timeless Colonial character, generous living space, inviting outdoor areas, and a highly desirable location, this home offers a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the best of suburban living with convenient access to city amenities. Don't miss the opportunity to make this exceptional property your forever home!

Wallingford, located between Media and Swarthmore, is a residential and commuter-friendly Chester neighborhood with leafy streets and a rail-linked rhythm. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Wallingford Station area along Possum Hollow Road, where small storefronts, coffee counters, and everyday services set a steady, local pace. Stone-and-brick Colonials and mid-century splits mix with mature trees and deep setbacks. The Wallingford Community Arts Center anchors a creative calendar in a historic setting. Hedgerow Theatre adds a long-running stage tradition nearby. Crum Creek and the Springhaven Club shape the landscape with green edges and recreation.
