    Welcome home to 129 Ogden Avenue –an exceptional, updated Colonial located on one of the most coveted streets in Swarthmore. This stunning 6 bedroom, 3 full and 2 half bathroom home sits on a gorgeous, elevated, large private lot that is landscaped with specimen trees, plantings and shrubs. Curb appeal and quality craftsmanship exude from this freshly painted, grand 3-story home with an inviting stone walkway and a lovely covered front porch complete with swing. Enter this meticulously cared-for home into the elegant foyer and observe the natural sunlight, hardwood floors and graciously apportioned rooms. To the left is the living room featuring box bay windows with copper roofing, built-in bookshelves and cabinets and a wood-burning fireplace. Across the hall is the dining room with a custom chandelier and carpentry details, providing a great space for gatherings and celebrations. Follow the hallway to the spectacular eat-in chef's kitchen—a focal point of this home featuring professional-grade appliances including Wolf dual-fuel oven, second Thermador oven, SubZero refrigerator and Cove dishwasher. Delight in the custom KountryKraft cabinets made from Pennsylvania cherry, granite countertops, a second bar sink, and center island at table height with custom-made chairs, all under a copper roof! Around the corner is a charming powder room with subway tile, and beyond that is a cozy family room with fresh carpet, built-in bookshelves, overhead reading lights, plenty of windows and a wood-burning fireplace. Off the back door is a small patio with a nearly-new Weber Genesis propane gas grill. The second floor of this home boasts a lovely primary suite with a luxuriously updated bathroom featuring a stall shower with two shower heads, pretty tile and a custom vanity. There are 3 additional bedrooms on this floor, each with hardwood floors; two of the four bedrooms have ceiling fans. A large hall bathroom with soaking tub completes this floor. On the 3rd floor, discover 2 more spacious bedrooms with ample closet space and a full bathroom with a tub shower. The unfinished basement, with a half bath, built-in closet, workbench, and egress to the backyard, houses the updated systems including a Weil McLain heater and recently installed professional-grade SpeedQueen washer and dryer. There is plenty of space for storage, including a wall of wine racks and an outlet for a wine cabinet, as well as a refrigerator and freezer. The large backyard offers endless potential for family fun and activities. It includes a wonderful detached garage and a playhouse that both have electric service and the potential to become an accessory dwelling unit (ADU). One of the most outstanding features of this home is the wonderful privacy it offers. It is truly a special place. Perfectly located in the highly sought-after Wallingford-Swarthmore School District, it is within walking distance of the Swarthmore train station and offers quick access to the Philadelphia Airport and major highways.
