Property Description

Welcome to 24 Franklin Ave, a truly special Merchantville home rich with timeless craftsmanship, architectural character, and beautifully preserved original details. An oversized wrap-around front porch sets the tone for the warmth and charm found throughout. Inside, the expansive living room spans the full width of the home and is anchored by a gorgeous wood-burning fireplace with a custom mantle designed to complement the home’s stunning woodwork and intricate floor inlay. Tudor-style arched doorways and a show-stopping raised first-floor landing with glass detail and sitting area further highlight the home’s distinctive design. Original hardwood floors extend throughout the first and second levels, featuring detailed inlay and decorative corner blocks. Gorgeous original radiators add to the home’s character, while an upgraded central air system provides modern comfort. Handmade stained glass, thoughtfully created by the previous owner, can be found throughout the home, adding a truly unique artistic touch. The spacious formal dining room is designed for gatherings and entertaining, featuring a built-in china hutch, a beautiful bay window with a generous built-in serving ledge/bench, and a custom swinging door leading to the kitchen. The large eat-in kitchen has been updated with granite countertops, while a Dutch door leads to a pantry/nook area with heated floors and convenient half bath. A rear second staircase adds another classic period detail. The second floor offers four generously sized bedrooms, including two connected by a Jack and Jill layout, along with a large upgraded full bath. The third level provides additional living space with two bedrooms, a bright landing filled with natural light, a full bath with clawfoot tub ready for updating, and a large storage area/closet. Additional features include a full basement for storage, detached garage, and a gorgeous backyard planted with care — a reflection of the previous owner’s background as a horticulturist. A tiny covered back porch offers a peaceful space to overlook the beautifully maintained yard. Ideally located within walking distance to schools, parks, the walking path, and the dining, shops, and charm of downtown Merchantville. Conveniently situated just minutes from major highways and bridges to Philadelphia, this home offers the perfect blend of small-town living and everyday accessibility. This home is being sold in as-is condition and is in very good overall condition, offering a rare opportunity to own a home filled with warmth, history, and enduring architectural beauty.
