Welcome to 233 Marlboro Rd
This adorable twin sits on a corner lot in the Ardmore Pocket neighborhood, a charming cluster of homes lining Marlboro, Wellington and Chatham Roads. The two-story house has the character and solid build common to Main Line homes from the last century, with updates that appeal to the sensibilities of contemporary buyers. A wonderful covered front porch gives the house great outdoor living space and a connection to the friendly neighbors out for family strolls, and walking their dogs.
The gorgeous wood front door leads into a living room with a wide doorway through to the dining room. Both of these freshly painted rooms have the original wood floors and other touches of character, like wide baseboards and matching trim over the big windows and doorways. The living room fireplace has an efficient wood-burning insert that can really warm up the house. Beyond the dining room is a convenient first floor powder room, and a freshly-painted galley kitchen with a breakfast nook in the back of the house. A rear kitchen door leads to a landing and stairs down to a small fenced yard in the back of the house.
Wood floors continue upstairs, where you’ll find all three bedrooms and an updated full bath with tub. The lower level also has a full bath with a small stall shower, a cedar closet, and a tiled floor, plus plenty of room for the laundry area and storage. A convenient door provides exterior access and leads to the corner, side yard. An attached garage on the side of the house has a compact, private driveway. This neighborhood is in the award-winning Lower Merion School District, offers a short commute to Philadelphia, and is easily walkable to the Ardmore regional rail station. It’s also a short walk to the Ardmore Farmer’s Market, Trader Joe’s and the many popular shops and restaurants of downtown Ardmore and Suburban Square.
