Listing description

If flexibility is on your wish list, 1829 Shallcross Avenue delivers it in a big way. With approximately 2,157 square feet of finished living space, 1829 Shallcross Avenue offers a level of flexibility that’s hard to find in a typical single-family home. The main portion features 3 bedrooms and 1 full bath, while a separate secondary living area offers 2 additional bedrooms, another full bath, its own kitchen, and living space. Need room for guests, extended household needs, a home office, or simply a little more space to spread out? You have it here. And for buyers interested in offsetting some of the cost of homeownership, the separate tenant-occupied portion offers rental income potential, subject to the existing tenancy and lease terms. Hardwood floors, generous room sizes, original architectural details, and a full basement add character and everyday functionality. Outside, approximately 0.17 acres and off-street driveway parking give you even more room to work with. Make it your home. Live in one portion and let the other help with the expenses. Or look at the property through an investor’s eyes. However you approach it, 1829 Shallcross Avenue offers something increasingly valuable: options.

Assessment note: this home is assessed at $128,960, well below the ~$177,580 its asking price implies at Delaware County's common level ratio (54.6%). A sale near asking can invite a school-district assessment appeal that could raise the bill by roughly $1,806/year. Factor that into an offer.

Recomputed from the county assessment ($128,960, 2021 base year) × current millage. School millage is from the latest year certified by the Pennsylvania Department of Education (2025-26); districts adopt the next year's budgets each June, and we update when the state certifies the statewide file in the fall. Portals typically reprint the recorded 2026 bill. Pennsylvania does not reassess on sale. Estimate only. Verify with Delaware County before relying on it.

Taxes use NookLocal's estimate at current millage rates, not the stale figure on the MLS. The default rate is the average 30-year rate as of July 2026; insurance is estimated at 0.35% of the price per year. Below 20% down, lenders usually add mortgage insurance, which this estimate doesn't include. Estimate only; verify before relying on it.
