July 2013's Homes Sold in Lower Merion Township and Swiss Miss near Narberth Station

Narberth Swiss Miss: Location, Lot Size, Expandable, 2 Baths 
There's a bunch of these mini Swiss Farms-style doodads on Dudley Avenue in Narberth. At about 1,000 sq ft, with small bedrooms, a bath, and only a skip and a jump to the train, these are quintessential starter-homes that can be had in the low 300s. Some of these bungalots have a double-wide lots and the owners have kicked out (very welcome) additions.
This one at 302 Dudley has a wider lot than most and features a two-car garage in the backyard. The exterior, including kitchen and two full baths was recently upgraded throughout. Newest owners just paid $325,000 (net) in July, which was a very fair market price, but one with excellent chance of above average returns and enjoyment of ownership.

Lower Merion Home Transactions: Nearly 100 Settled in July 2013  (priced under one million)
