Situated just North of Swarthmore College, this impressive five-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bathroom property is filled with original character and has been meticulously updated to weave in modern amenities for today’s homeowners. The hardscaping perfectly accents the home’s beautiful stone exterior, and the custom copper chimney caps add a perfect touch of historic charm. The front and rear gardens have been consciously designed to accent the home and provide balance to the mature trees that fill the property.

Inside, original wide plank hardwood flooring greets you and runs throughout the home. The sun-soaked spacious living room feels bright and airy from the large windows with deep sills allowing the light in, yet cozy from the working fireplace with original built-in bookshelves providing additional storage space. An additional seating area can be found through the glass-paned door which provides an intimate setting anchored by a quaint fireplace. The formal dining room features its own fireplace, beautifully exposed beams, a glass-paned door for optional privacy, and access to the home’s rear staircase.

At the heart of the home sits the kitchen, featuring white painted cabinetry, maple butcher block countertops, and stainless steel appliances. Show off your dishes in the glass-front upper cabinets, and enjoy serene views out the double window over the inset stainless steel sink. A moveable large center island provides additional casual seating, perfect for enjoying quick breakfasts in the morning. This kitchen is complete with a windowed alcove that could be used as a breakfast nook overlooking the quaint English-style garden. Rounding out this level is a convenient powder room, a laundry room with butler’s pantry cabinets, a Meile washer and dryer, and a separate mudroom with direct access to the back yard, all with durable tile flooring.

The primary suite on the second level hosts an abundance of charm with original hardwood floors and a brick hearth fireplace. The walk-in closet boasts plenty of room for multiple configurations and leads the way to a beautifully updated full bathroom with a stall shower. Two secondary bedrooms on this floor are adorned with crown and chair moldings and are anchored by original fireplaces. Rounding out this floor is an updated full hallway bathroom with a cast iron tub shower and beautiful built-in cabinetry.

The final two bedrooms on the third level are adorned with wainscotting, sloped ceilings, and an exposed stone wall with an abundance of storage space. This space is perfect for secondary bedrooms, a quiet remote office space, or a bonus room. Both bedrooms share the use of a beautifully updated hall bathroom with charming tile flooring, exposed wooden beams, wainscotting, plenty of wall storage, and a tiled stall shower.

The expansive and private rear yard is just under an acre and contains several beautiful trees and one of the largest Sycamores in Swarthmore. The gardens that surround the home contain perennials and trees that will be a gardener’s dream. In addition, the yard hosts multiple seating areas as well as a hardscape firepit, ideal for entertaining all year long. The property is completed with a long driveway leading to the original carriage house with large barn doors and a Spring House which would make the perfect potting shed for the avid gardener.

Residents can relish the peaceful ambiance of the suburbs, nestled in the heart of the award-winning Wallingford-Swarthmore School District within walking distance to ample greenery, numerous parks, Scott Arboretum, and beautifully groomed trails at Crum Creek. 530 Cedar Lane is conveniently close to public transportation, major thoroughfares for commuting, Springfield Mall, and a plethora of shops and restaurants along Baltimore Pike.
