“We bought the worst house in the best neighborhood,' said the owner of a 'shabby chic' house in Wayne. But “we saw what other people couldn’t see past.”
Scott McDonnell says that when he and his wife, Susan, bought their house in Wayne in 2012, they were using a common real estate approach: “We bought the worst house in the best neighborhood.”
So after renting in Conshohocken, they bought the house in Wayne with the idea of never leaving. They liked the neighborhood’s walkability, the nearby regional rail station with easy access to Center City, and the fact that it was in the Radnor School District for when they would raise a family. But they are, indeed, headed to Florida, where Scott’s parents live and where Susan can work remotely in her new hospital job.
