Listing description

Historic Charm Meets Modern Comfort! Rare Assumable 2.375% Mortgage. Set on over half an acre in a private cul-de-sac shared by just five homes, this circa-1840 property (with portions dating to the 1700s) blends historic character with modern function, just steps from Media, Swarthmore, and Wallingford, in the sought-after Wallingford-Swarthmore School District (Wallingford Elementary). Walkable to the train and bus, with easy access to I-476, I-95. Why pay today's rates when you don't have to? Qualified buyers may be able to assume the seller's 2.375% FHA loan and pair it with a second loan- for substantial monthly savings versus financing at today's rates. Inside, original hardwood floors (refinished throughout) and abundant natural light run through a formal living room, a family room with fireplace, and a formal dining room. The updated kitchen mixes butcher block and solid-surface counters, stainless appliances, a farmhouse sink, and upgraded cabinetry, plus a first-floor laundry/mudroom with extra pantry storage. Upstairs, five bedrooms (all hardwood) include a primary with a walk-in closet and vanity area. An adjacent bedroom already has a walk-through connection, making it easy to convert the current 5 bed/1.5 bath layout into a 4 bed/2.5 bath with a true primary suite. Major systems are done: three-zone HVAC (two units, two furnaces), a newer roof with a 50-year warranty, updated plumbing, a new half bath, and real wood Levolor blinds throughout. Outside, enjoy a side porch swing, paver patio, wrap-around porch, and a fully fenced yard with new sod and fresh landscaping. The long driveway (recently relocated and sealcoated) fits 4+ vehicles. A standout 1,000 sq ft detached barn with a sub-panel, updated wiring, and EV hookup offers a workshop, gym, studio, or storage, endless flexibility. An unfinished third floor (heated) and unfinished basement offer future potential to expand even further.

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 2025 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.
