Nestled within a quiet cul-de-sac setting shared by just five homes, this property offers a rare sense of privacy and neighborhood charm while maintaining convenient access to nearby amenities and major roadways. Welcome to a rare and perfect blend of historic charm and modern upgrades! Currently configured as a 5-bedroom, 1.5 bath home, this property can easily be converted to create a spacious primary suite, resulting in a 4-bedroom, 2.5 bath layout. This beautifully maintained 5-bedroom home, originally built in 1840 with portions dating back to the 1700s, is situated on over a half-acre of majestic, landscaped grounds. This beauty features original hardwood floors, abundance of natural light, and multiple spacious living areas including a formal living room and a warm, inviting family room with fireplace. The updated kitchen offers a stylish mix of butcher block and solid surface countertops, stainless steel appliances, farmhouse sink, upgraded cabinetry, and flows directly into a grand formal dining room perfect for entertaining. A first-floor laundry/mudroom with additional pantry storage adds everyday convenience. The second level includes five generously sized bedrooms, all with hardwood flooring, including a primary suite with a walk-in closet and vanity area, along with updated bathrooms throughout. The current layout offers a unique opportunity to easily convert an adjacent bedroom into a dedicated primary bathroom, creating a true primary suite, as it already features a convenient walk-through connection. Major system upgrades include a three-zone newer HVAC system with two central air units and two furnaces, a newer roof with a 50-year warranty, updated plumbing, new half bath, and Levolor real wood blinds throughout. Outdoor living is equally impressive, featuring a charming side porch with a swing, a paver patio, wrap-around porch, and a fully fenced yard ideal for both relaxation and entertaining. The private, long driveway provides ample parking for at least four vehicles and has been recently relocated and sealcoated. The property is enhanced with new sod, professional landscaping, and a fully fenced backyard creating a peaceful and inviting setting. A standout feature is the detached approximately 1,000 sq ft barn equipped with a sub-panel, updated wiring, and EV charging hookup, offering incredible flexibility for a workshop, gym, studio, or additional storage. The home has been thoughtfully renovated with refinished hardwood floors throughout and fresh paint, blending timeless character with modern updates. Additional highlights include solid wood doors, expanded closet space, an unfinished third level with heat offering future potential, and an unfinished basement with utility space. Located in the highly sought-after Wallingford-Swarthmore School District, this property offers exceptional convenience with walkability to the train and bus, easy access to I-476 and I-95, and just minutes from the vibrant downtowns of Media, Swarthmore, and Wallingford. This is a rare opportunity to own a historic home with modern functionality in an unbeatable location. Why pay today’s rates if you may be able to assume this FHA loan at just 2.375%?
