About This Home

As of September 2019

Truly stunning and very expansive, this grand Tudor home is a beautiful expression of light, airiness and elegance, with a gracious flow for entertaining. It is desirably located in the prime, picturesque estate section of Northside Villanova, on nearly 1.5 +/- impeccably landscaped acres, near top Lower Merion schools and a host of conveniences for the entire family. A circular drive, lush private grounds, and a gorgeous exterior with stone accents and new roof create curb appeal galore. In front, a spacious brick paver patio provides a perfect setting for enjoying the blissful views. The breathtaking interior is bathed in natural light and brimming with lots of wonderful architectural features. Every detail and room is distinctive, beginning with the inviting foyer beyond arched wood doors, making an instant impression with a striking staircase, rich hardwood floors, and open views of the sunny 2nd floor landing. Coat closets and a powder room sit conveniently off the foyer. At left through an arched opening awaits a large and lovely step-down living room with generous front-facing windows overlooking greenery and a charming wood-burning fireplace. Also nearby is a library/den with custom built-ins and serene rear property views. A gallery leads to the formal dining room with chair rail moldings and French doors opening to the patio, affording a seamless connection between the in/outdoors, heightening the experience for special occasions and everyday living. Adjacent is a white eat in kitchen where the hardwood floors continue and family/guests converge. A huge tiered island with seating and granite tops, abundant cabinetry and prep space, stainless steel appliances, and a divine open breakfast room awash with light make this the heart of the home. Adjoining is a fabulous family room where you can relax with loved ones, boasting high vaulted ceilings, a second wood-burning fireplace, and more French doors spilling out to the patio. The main stairs ascend to an open upper landing making way to 4 comfortable, well-proportioned bedrooms. Unwind in the room master retreat occupying one wing, with plush carpeting, vaulted ceiling, a walk-in closet, and en-suite marble master bath with a jetted tub and separate shower. The additional 3 bedrooms share 2 full hall baths. A walkout basement, 2-car garage, and sprawling lawn for the kids and pets round out the good life!
