Marking it's 100th Birthday last year, this Merchantville beauty boasts Amazing details throughout that exude original Charm and Character! Featuring a BRAND NEW ROOF (sellers are having installed prior to home sale!!), Wrap-around Front Porch, Large Lot set on an Absolutely stunning block, and 2 sets of petite French doors to both porch and balcony access! As you enter through the extra wide Dutch door, you'll step into the front vestibule offering a coat closet with upper cabinet storage on the left and a convenient half Bath on the right. Through the next door you'll be enveloped into the Spacious Foyer showcasing the Stunning original Chestnut woodwork, wood floors and leaded/stained glass all found throughout the main floor! Grand Living Room offers a wood-burning Fireplace with a rich mantle surround and side porch access. You'll pass a hallway storage closet (sink not operational) as you enter into the cozy Family Room which features a 2nd Fireplace, this one gas fired, and offers dual built-in display shelves flanking either side of the marble surround. Entertaining space continues as you continue into the breathtaking Dining Room boasting chestnut coffered walls, beamed ceiling, stained glass windows and built-in china cabinet. A butler's pantry with original swinging door leads into the expanded Kitchen. Presently featuring stainless steel appliances including dual wall ovens, an electric cooktop, rear Staircase access and with Breakfast room space and penisula for additional seating, this large footprint could easily be transformed and reimagined (think extra long island!). The main floor dedicated Laundry room offers back access onto the rear deck. As you head upstairs, you'll find 4 Bedrooms and a Full Bath all bordering a traditional large landing. 2 of the Bedrooms feature a connecting door between them, and the primary bedroom features roof top access (this could be transformed into a usable space by adding proper coating and railings). The finished 3rd floor features two extra rooms and a Full bath with stall shower. This historic Swope House offers ample space and includes a Basement, additional crawl space (the old coal is still in the corner!), root cellar, and walk-out to the attached Garage. Additional features include wired security system, functioning fountain/pond, Off street parking and several ornate light fixtures.Lots of Opportunity to make this as-is Gem your own, but with the sellers having the Knob and tube recently removed, the guarantee of a New Roof before closing, and the inclusion of a 1 year HSA Home Warranty, what's not to love?! Walkable to the Community Center and downtown shops and restaurants, you can also enjoy local amenities like the Merchantville Country Club, community walking path, community garden, tennis courts, parks, and close to Cherry Hill Mall and Philadelphia bridges!
