Welcome to 282 Davis Avenue, a three bedroom, one and a half bath Cape Cod in one of Delaware County's most connected boroughs, where character, outdoor space, and Philadelphia access come with something increasingly rare in this region: a single family detached home at a price that actually makes sense.
From the moment you step inside, the original hardwood floors, wainscoting, crown molding, and solid wood doors with skeleton key hardware make one thing clear. This is what a well loved home looks like.
The first floor offers two bedrooms, a full bath, a sun filled living room that opens directly onto a screened and shaded patio, and a dining room that flows into a kitchen with butcher block countertops and gas cooking that actually makes you want to use it. The kitchen also connects to the backyard, making indoor and outdoor living feel seamless. The fully fenced backyard has a firepit for cool evenings, a greenhouse shed, and established perennial plantings with fruits, herbs, and flowers already growing and waiting for you. Upstairs, the finished master suite offers a walk in closet and generous flex space ideal for a home office, reading room, or studio.
The big ticket items are already done. Roof fully replaced in 2025. Basement professionally cleaned and sealed in 2024. The basement adds real usable square footage with a half bath, washer and dryer included, utility sink, and storage. This home carries hundreds more square feet than comparable homes in the neighborhood and none of it is wasted.
Less than a mile from the Clifton-Aldan SEPTA regional rail station, you are 30 minutes from Center City with Delaware County taxes and room to actually breathe. Clifton Heights gives you access to Philadelphia without the Philadelphia price tag.
This is a borough where the Fourth of July parade still runs down the main street, neighbors know each other by name, and you can walk to a ball field or playground in five minutes. That is not something you find everywhere.
This is the right home for a buyer who wants real character, a private outdoor space, and a direct line to the city.
