About This Home

As of May 2025

A rare opportunity to own the most desirable home in The Hermitage, a sought-after enclave in Bryn Mawr. Ideally positioned at the center of the neighborhood, this premier end-unit offers exceptional privacy and the community’s most coveted, uninterrupted panorama of nature—lush landscaping, mature trees, and a serene pond just beyond the flat, open backyard. Shielded by natural buffers, the home enjoys a sense of quiet seclusion, free from the disruption of passing traffic or neighborhood activity.

Fully renovated in 2019 by Spire Builders and designed by R.A. Hoffman Architects, the residence offers over 4,000 square feet of pristine, turnkey living. Every detail was curated for modern living, from the updated Trex deck and contemporary interiors to the versatile open backyard—perfect for a future pool, garden, or enclosed space for pets.

The main level presents a beautifully balanced layout, blending refined gathering spaces with private bedroom retreats. The expansive primary suite features three walk-in closets, en-suite laundry, a spa-inspired bath, and direct access to a secluded patio. A generous guest bedroom with en-suite bath offers comfort and privacy for visitors. A handsome library or office with custom built-in cabinetry and a wood-burning fireplace adds depth and warmth, while the spacious living room showcases a natural stone fireplace and sweeping views to the horizon. The large dining room flows seamlessly into a sleek, modern kitchen with walk-in pantry – perfect for entertaining or everyday living. A stylish and conveniently placed powder room completes the main floor.

The day-lit walkout garden level continues the home’s flexible living experience, offering another private guest bedroom with built-ins, a full bath, and a generous living or recreation space with custom built-ins and direct access to the rear grounds.

Four private parking spots include a two-car garage with an upper-level loft—ideal for a studio, gym, or creative workspace. Both the garage loft and walk-up attic offer potential for further customization and expansion, including the opportunity to create additional bedrooms with en-suite baths and natural light.

The Hermitage is more than just a place to live—it's a community designed and built around connection and enjoyment. Residents enjoy peaceful walking loops that wind through beautifully landscaped grounds, secluded tennis courts tucked among the trees, and charming outdoor features like gazebos, a scenic bridge, and a bench overlooking the picturesque pond—perfect for morning coffee or quiet reflection. It’s an active, friendly neighborhood that feels like a private retreat.
Set in a tranquil, park-like setting just minutes from downtown Bryn Mawr, this home blends timeless design, modern ease, and the rare combination of beauty, privacy, and possibility.
