Elm Station — Less than 7 miles from Broad Street Station on Main Line Pennsylvania Railroad
PERFECT SANITARY PROTECTION
NO DRAINAGE WELLS allowed on the property. Every house underdrained by the most approved and scientific method. PURE WATER, from an artisian well over 200 feet deep, is pumped to a reservoir and from there piped to the houses. Fare to Broad Street Station, 7 cents on three months' ticket. Every Lot within three minutes of station. Low taxes.
A HOUSE TO SUIT YOUR WIFE
The Price of the houses, complete, ready for occupancy, on a lot 75 feet front, is $6,600. The first story is built of stone, and all work done under the most careful supervision.
Every Room opens on the Hall. No going through Dining Room to get to front door. Two doors at every point in Kitchen to shut off smells from the rest of the house. Back stairs entirely private and not run to a landing on main stairs. Liberal Closets.
Every room laid out so that your furniture will fit without putting your bed in front of a door or window.
Porches so arranged so that when one side is sunny the other is shady.
These houses are not in and have no connection to Narberth Park, but are on the other side of the railroad.
The great difference between our properties and all other suburban properties within a radius of fifteen miles of Philadelphia IS AN ABUNDANT AND PROTECTED SUPPLY OF PURE WATER AND NO DRAINAGE WELLS ALLOWED.
