208 Martroy Lane

What an amazing opportunity to own a tranquil oasis in the heart of Nether Providence Township. Walking distance to the elementary school (WES), Strath Haven Middle School and Strath Haven High School you can't ask for a better location. This incredible 1.43 acre lot is believed to be the largest in the neighborhood and the house has good solid bones and utility upgrades that make this a great buy. The expanded cape features hardwood floors ready to be refinished, timeless mill work and built-in cabinets, a wood burning brick fireplace, solid wood doors with original hardware that add definite charm. The cherry kitchen has modern appliances: built-in microwave, cooktop, wall mounted oven, refrigerator and new dishwasher. The upgraded utilities include a 2018 high efficiency gas heater, 2017 new dimensional shingle roof (all old material removed), some PEX line plumbing and a newly parged walls partially finished basement. This lovely home also features a 2 car attached garage, a screened porch, an inground pool, some newer windows. The rear yard extends beyond the fence line both to the left of the house and extends in the rear to meet the property on Hempstead. The lot size is astounding. Excellent opportunity for sweat equity. Bring your paint brushes and elbow grease and create your dream home. Walking distance to train station, Pendle Hill Walking trails, minutes from Rte 476, bus route, downtown Swarthmore, Swarthmore College grounds and gardens. Really an excellent opportunity.
