Description

Prepare to fall in love. 36 aka 34 E Benedict was built at a time when quality superseded quantity, when craftsmanship was of the uppermost importance, and when life was all about “home.” This stunning home exudes custom construction, especially for the simpler time in which it was built. The rich history of this home shines through as you pull up and immediately fall in love with the large front porch, scale of the home and the classic Colonial structure. The current family has loved, grown and entertained friends and neighbors in this home for over 50 years and you can feel that as you walk in the front door. It’s a truly happy home. Entering the home at the gracious front porch reminds you of being somewhere else! Endless hours to be spent on this front porch. As you head in, you’ll be floored by the large foyer, gleaming original oak hardwood floors with a walnut inlay, tons of natural light and just a warm and welcoming feeling. The foyer leads you to the huge living room with a lot of oversized windows and built-in shelving on the left and a perfectly sized dining room with a bay window, built-in corner cabinet, chair rail and stunning light fixture on the right. As you walk the rest of the first floor you’ll see the A+ craftsmanship shine through with the one of a kind staircase and its gorgeous details. The kitchen of the home has cherry cabinetry, updated appliances to include a gas range, tiled backsplash and space for a table and chairs. The original pantry is still intact and offers great space for pantry items. The current owner added a full bathroom on the first floor just a few years ago and it’s beautiful! Off of the kitchen is a mudroom space that is large enough to house another bathroom and laundry. The first floor has a great circular flow which is lovely! As you walk through, you’ll notice beautiful original woodwork details at every turn. Head up the gorgeous staircase to the 2nd floor. There are 4 large bedrooms and a large hall bathroom. You could easily convert 2 of the bedrooms into 1 primary suite if desired- there is plenty of room to do so! The hardwood floors continue throughout the 2nd floor as well for a nice cohesive feel. The 3rd floor has more incredible space and more opportunities depending on your needs! A large room with great headspace and ample windows could be a 5th bedroom, primary suite, or office. The walk-in attic space offers great storage space and versatility. The property this home sits on is perfect for the neighborhood. It’s a spacious level lot with a large private driveway, detached garage, and plenty of room for play and entertaining out back! The location cannot be beat! You will get a front-row seat to all of the best that Havertown has to offer. Haverford Township Day, Music Fest, and many parades and festivals. Walk to many restaurants such as Brick and Brew and Buona Sera in just minutes! This home is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to customize your forever home that just so happens to be in the best location. Go and fall in love.
