Welcome to this historic Vernacular Georgian style home, built circa 1820, that was originally part of a 124 acre farm in Haverford Township.  The first owner was Dennis Kelly, an early influential resident of Haverford Township after whom St. Denis Church was named.  This charming home has been completely updated while still retaining its distinctive architectural details.  This home is located in Merwood Park, one of Havertown’s most desirable neighborhoods, and is in close proximity to the township park, shops and restaurants of downtown Havertown and Ardmore.

FIRST FLOOR:  Entering into the spacious Living Room (2’x19’6”), one can immediately see the architectural details of this historic home in the 9” ceilings, hardwood floors, thick walls with rounded corners and deep windowsills.  The lovely gas fireplace with carved mantle is the focal point of the room, and a glass door leads to a screened side porch that is perfect for summer living.  To the right of the Living Room is the Dining Room (13’5”x9’3”) that is also open to the updated Kitchen (11’x10’) with ceramic tile floor, medium cherry cabinets,  gas range, microwave, dishwasher, disposal, display glass cabinetry, and a breakfast bar for casual dining.  There is also an outside entrance for easy access to the fenced yard and garage.   

 SECOND FLOOR:  Hardwood floors continue throughout the second floor and there are hardwood floors with inlays under carpet in the bedrooms on this floor.  The Master Bedroom (16’3”x15’6”) is bright and spacious with a wrap-around walk-in closet unusual in older homes.  The Master Bath features a ceramic tile floor, stall shower and updated fixtures.  The second Bedroom (12’7”x12’9”) also has carpet and 2 windows.  The spacious hall Bath features ceramic tile floor, tub and shower, and updated vanity.
