She updated the fireplace, put in new closets, and redid the primary bathroom.
Fast forward to 2026. She is married to Joseph Chiarantona, and they have two real babies. The couple, both of whom work in medical device sales, bought a home in Newtown Square and moved out of the Fairmount house.
“It will be emotional to pass it on to somebody new,” Donlon said.
The Fairmount house’s main level features a private back patio with Trex decking, a pergola, and built-in seating.
It has an updated electric fireplace, and the kitchen has a pass-through window to the dining room.
The second floor has a bedroom, an office area, and a full bath featuring marble basket weave pattern floors, and a soaking tub. There is also a bonus room that could serve as a home office or den, with built-in shelving.

The third floor has the primary suite, with a modern bathroom with a glass-enclosed marble shower, and another bedroom.
The basement is half-finished, with half dedicated to storage and laundry, and half upgraded with new rubber gym flooring. Donlon used it as a workout area.
The 1,456-square-foot house has split heating and cooling with remote access.
It is easily accessible to Kelly Drive, the Art Museum, and major highways.
Parking is easier than on most blocks in the neighborhood, Donlon said.
The house is listed by Colleen Markey of BHHS Fox & Roach – Rosemont for $645,000.
