Assumable 2.375% FHA loan- qualified buyers may be able to take over the seller’s mortgage and pair it with a second loan, for substantial monthly savings versus financing at today’s rates. Contact the listing agent for details. Set on over half an acre in a private cul-de-sac shared by just five homes, this circa-1840 property (with portions dating to the 1700s) is a rare blend of historic character and modern function - steps from Media, Swarthmore, and Wallingford, in the sought-after Wallingford-Swarthmore School District. Inside, original hardwood floors, refinished throughout, and abundant natural light run through a formal living room, a family room with fireplace, and a formal dining room. The updated kitchen mixes butcher block and solid-surface counters, stainless appliances, a farmhouse sink, and upgraded cabinetry- plus a first-floor laundry/mudroom with extra pantry storage. Upstairs, five bedrooms (all hardwood) include a primary with walk-in closet and vanity area. An adjacent bedroom already has a walk-through connection, making it easy to convert the current 5-bed/1.5-bath layout into a 4-bed/2.5-bath with a true primary suite. Major systems are done: three-zone HVAC (two units, two furnaces), a newer roof with 50-year warranty, updated plumbing, a new half bath, and real wood Levolor blinds throughout. Outside, enjoy a side porch swing, paver patio, wrap-around porch, and fully fenced yard with new sod and fresh landscaping. The long driveway (recently relocated and sealcoated) fits 4+ vehicles. A standout 1,000 sq ft detached barn with sub-panel, updated wiring, and EV hookup offers a workshop, gym, studio, or storage- endless flexibility. Unfinished third floor (heated) and unfinished basement offer future potential. Walkable to the train and bus, with easy access to I-476 and I-95. Award Winning Wallingford-Swarthmore Schools (Wallingford Elementary). A historic home, modern updates, and a mortgage rate you can’t get anywhere else - why pay today’s rates when you don’t have to?
