Description

This charming 1920s Merion Village property has original woodwork and wood floors throughout. The living room is adorned with a decorative fireplace. Both the living rm and dining rm have a large window. The kitchen cabinets may be original, while the appliances are approximately 10 years old. There is a small eating space in the kitchen.

The upper level consists of three bedrooms and a full bathroom. The Owner's Bedroom features two closets and a large window. The original wood floors are concealed beneath the carpeting in 2 bedrooms. Approximately five to ten years ago, the full bathroom underwent a comprehensive renovation, incorporating contemporary furnishings such as the vanity, sink, mirror, lighting, shower head and control, toilet, and vinyl tile flooring. Additionally, there is an extra walk-in closet located outside the bathroom.

The lower level is very clean and equipped with washer and dryer hookups, a utility sink, and updated mechanicals and electric panel, all dating back approximately 10 years. It also includes a shower and toilet. This level could be transformed into additional living space.

The exterior of the house is clad in vinyl siding and has a dimensional shingle roof. The property boasts a spacious front porch and a paver patio in the rear. Additionally, there is a well-defined fenced yard (the right side of the fence was replaced approximately seven years ago) and a two-car detached garage equipped with a new overhead garage door (installed in 2024).

The property could use some cosmetic updates and is being offered ''as-is.'' It could be a great investor or fixer-upper property!
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources. This description is from June 03, 2025
