Property Description
This classic Victorian is located on a tree-lined street in historic Rutledge Borough. Beloved by three generations, the property is being offered to the public for the first time in 40+- years. The first floor features oak floors, beautiful original woodwork and high ceilings throughout. Big windows in the large living room with pocket door, formal dining room and eat-in kitchen give the home an airy feel. Nooks and crannies abound in the three enclosed porches ? with plenty of space for sipping tea, storing gardening tools and anything else your heart desires. Upstairs the picturesque landing overlooks the side garden through a whimsical oval window. Three bedrooms with beautiful heart-of-pine floors as well as a full hall bath can be found on this level. The 3rd floor consists of a cozy 4th bedroom with views all over the property from large windows, as well as three separate storage closets and access to a good sized floored storage attic. The house is located on a tremendous, level, corner lot with great potential for gardening. Rutledge Borough is known as the "best kept secret in Delaware county" with the some of the lowest tax assessments in the Wallingford-Swarthmore School District. Beautiful historic homes, level streets with sidewalks, a picturesque stone borough hall and public park can all be found this 4 block square town. Commuting can be a breeze - just a few blocks from the front door of 31 President Avenue are the Morton regional rail express train station as well as a coffee shop and small downtown area.
