Brokers Opens in Narberth and Ardmore

Previewed two newly listed homes in Narberth this Tuesday including #8 Shirley Rd $393,900 (Long & Foster) -- a charming single just minutes from downtown. This home is on the smaller side, has only one bath, but it is on an extremely picturesque, quiet lot. Shirley is a very low-traffic street that elbows off Haveford Avenue - close to everythng but nicely secluded.

A counterpoint is the new listing at 402 N. Essex $350,000 (Duffy /image below right). While perhaps not as quaint as #8 Shirley, this 4 BR/ 1.5 Bath twin has been very nicely renovated and offers 2100+ square feet of living space.

Distincly diiferent from both Narberth dwellings is the newly listed condominium in Ardmore at 10 Llanfair Rd. #7 $434,900 (Prudential/below). This contemporary townhouse is only minutes walk to Trader Joe's, Ardmore Farmer's Market and Suburban Square.  Updates abound in this open-floor-plan 3-bedroom with 2.5 baths, featuring indoor parking and private patio.   For more about these properties you can contact the brokerage firms listed or contact us to arrange no charge/no obligation Buyer Represntations.
