    Welcome to the Abraham Cawley House, circa 1855, located in the historic village of Swedesboro. This colonial house is set on a spacious nearly half acre lot that’s within walking distance to the commerce, restaurants and the amenities of downtown Swedesboro. The property features a solid built home with almost 1500 square feet just waiting for your personal renovations and has endless possibilities and potential to reveal even more of its historic character and charm. The spacious backyard has a patio and mature landscape making it a perfect place to entertain and relax. The long driveway leads to a three car garage with a workspace perfect for the car enthusiast or storage for your toys! The huge backyard has been recently cleared and is perfect for pool, pets or pleasure and could be an ideal area for agriculture or a garden. The front door leads left to the living room with windows on three sides, and to the dining room on the right which flows into the eat-in kitchen. There’s ample counter space and cabinetry and a cozy cubby with a wood stove to have a quiet cup of coffee and warm up on chilly mornings. A full bath with laundry is just off the kitchen and waits for your personal upgrades to make it your own. The back door leads to a bright sun room with a spectacular view of the backyard and provides a great private place to enjoy or entertain. Upstairs there are two good sized bedrooms, one with a cedar closet and a huge full bath. The third room is extra living space and could be an office, workout room or additional bedroom. The walk up attic is completely floored and provides lots of storage. This unique property offers all the space you need, close proximity to downtown and Lake Narraticon and endless potential and possibilities. Opportunities like this don’t come along often so make your appointment to see it today and make your dream a reality! Measurements are approximate and should be verified by buyer. ***Seller will provide the CO, but will not make any additional repairs.***
