About this home
Welcome to 725 Girard Ave — where charm, nature, and community come together beautifully.
Nestled along one of Swarthmore’s most picturesque, tree-lined streets, this inviting 4-bedroom, 1.5-bath home offers over 1,840 square feet of thoughtfully updated living space. From the moment you arrive, the covered front porch, storybook “free library,” and welcoming swing set the tone for a home filled with warmth and character.
Inside, you’ll find a layout designed for both connection and comfort. Multiple living spaces flow effortlessly, anchored by a centrally located kitchen with new granite countertops. A stunning sunroom with vaulted ceilings and custom woodwork brings the outdoors in—offering a peaceful place to enjoy every season. The addition of the 4th bedroom provides flexible space, now enhanced with a beautiful juliet balcony.
Step outside to a fully fenced backyard retreat, where a gentle creek winds through the property, creating a truly serene setting. Mature landscaping—including hydrangeas, rhododendrons, azaleas, and more—adds color and privacy, while the yard offers space to play, garden, or simply unwind.
This home has been extensively updated for modern living, including a new roof and siding (2025), tankless hot water heater, (2025), conversion to gas heat (2025), renovated bathroom (2025), refinished stairs, updated flooring throughout (2021), and fresh paint (2026). Every improvement has been made with care, preserving the home’s original charm while enhancing its functionality.
Life here is about the moments—morning coffee in the sunroom with birdsong, spotting deer by the creek, sledding on the nearby hill in winter, and evening strolls through this close-knit neighborhood. Just a scenic one-mile walk brings you to downtown Swarthmore, filled with local shops, dining, a library, coffee spots, and year-round community events. Easy access to I-95, Route 476, and the airport, the location is as convenient as it is charming.
Cozy, charming, peaceful, and surrounded by nature—this is a home you truly feel....
