Listing description

Welcome to 117 N Fairview Avenue, a well-maintained and recently updated twin offering plenty of living space, a detached garage, and a fenced rear yard. With 3 bedrooms and a full bath on the second floor, plus a finished basement offering a possible 4th bedroom or home office and an additional full bath, this home provides flexible space to fit a variety of needs. The current owners have made some great improvements, highlighted by the beautifully updated kitchen. An enclosed front porch with ceramic tile flooring leads into the spacious living room featuring refinished hardwood floors, recessed lighting, a ceiling fan, and a decorative stone fireplace that adds character to the room. The formal dining room continues the refinished hardwood flooring, with custom inlaid walnut ribbon trim adding a distinctive touch to both rooms. A rare and convenient feature for a home of this style is the updated first-floor powder room located just off the dining room. The wall between the dining room and kitchen has been removed, creating a more open and connected floor plan. The updated kitchen features white cabinetry, granite countertops, a custom tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances including a gas range, microwave, dishwasher, and refrigerator. Just off the kitchen is a covered rear porch overlooking the fenced yard, a great spot for morning coffee or relaxing at the end of the day. The home also features newer windows throughout. Upstairs you will find three generously sized bedrooms and an updated hall bath. The finished basement adds even more usable living space with a possible 4th bedroom or home office, along with a second full bath. With its updated kitchen and baths, refinished hardwood floors, flexible finished basement, newer windows, fenced rear yard, covered porch, and detached garage, this home is truly move-in ready with plenty to offer.

Assessment note: this home is assessed at $94,420, well below the ~$172,116 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 $2,419/year. Factor that into an offer.

Recomputed from the county assessment ($94,420, 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.
