We loved our stay in this home-it was the perfect fit for our family, which includes 2 teenagers. The only reason I give it 4 stars is because the coffeemaker wasn't working. We love to get coffee at Philter, though, and were within walking distance. It was an easy drive into Philly and a very short drive to Longwood. We would absolutely stay here again!

As a retired architect, I love staying in clean, well designed and comfortable homes. This home was perfect! My only note is for older folks with bad knees, as with most older homes, the stairs might be a bit challenging. We’re averaging 70 and quite healthy, the stairs were fine for us. Thank you Ivanca!
