608 and 610 N. Swarthmore Avenue, Ridley Park, PA 1.33 Acres, Zoned C-2 Commercial THE OPPORTUNITY: This is a rare opportunity to acquire a fully de-risked, 1.33-acre commercial development site in a prime, shadow-anchored Delaware County corridor. The current ownership has successfully executed all preliminary municipal heavy lifting, delivering a pristine, ready-to-develop parcel to the market. The site was recently officially rezoned to C-2 Commercial by the Borough of Ridley Park, opening the door for high-yield density, including contractor flex space, multi-unit commercial bays, automotive, or retail operations. PRIME LOCATION AND TRAFFIC GENERATORS: This parcel is immediately surrounded by highly trafficked, national retail anchors, providing built-in consumer and contractor volume. Direct Neighbor: Super Wawa Directly Across Street: The Home Depot Immediate Vicinity: Staples, ACME Markets Rear Traffic: The Ridley Park Swim Club sits adjacent to the rear access, driving heavy, consistent seasonal and community traffic directly past the rear property line. GUARANTEED DUAL ACCESS: The true value of this parcel lies in its legally confirmed dual access points, completely clearing title and access concerns for immediate development. Frontage: Direct commercial access on N. Swarthmore Avenue. Rear Access: The site features a municipally confirmed 240-foot public right-of-way along Hancock Street. The Borough of Ridley Park has formally recognized this right-of-way in writing, backed by nearly a century of recorded historical deeds, the PA Liquid Fuels map, and the 2003 Fire Lane Ordinance, guaranteeing uninterrupted rear access for commercial traffic and heavy equipment. DUE DILIGENCE PACKAGE: A comprehensive Phase One Due Diligence package is available to qualified buyers upon request. This confidential package includes the Borough of Ridley Park Ordinance confirming the C-2 rezoning, the formal municipal right-of-way declaration letter, state and municipal access proofs, and the preliminary boundary survey.
