Privately nestled on 2 pristine acres among Gladwyne's grandest estates, this custom-built, COMPLETELY GUT-RENOVATED home breaks the traditional Colonial mold & offers a unique transitional design optimized for family living & entertaining. A meticulous top-to-bottom renovation & layout transformation by the current owner, created a sleek open California-style layout providing utmost comfort, luxury & functionality. Every detail has been carefully considered for a truly awing ambiance, from the fine finishes & materials to fully-wired security/cameras, AV, lighting & temperature control systems. Beyond the gated entry await sprawling, full-regraded grounds beautified with new lawn, plantings, trees & irrigation. The gorgeous exterior is enhanced with new windows & new upper/lower decks. A brand new Hamptons-style saltwater swimming pool, pool pavilion & play structure assure outdoor pleasure for all ages. The dramatic 2-story Reception Hall with lightly-distressed herringbone wood floors, new wood staircase & huge Palladian window introduces a sun-drenched interior graced by lovely earth tones, custom moldings, and all-new flooring. Breathtaking openness extends into the LR with a gas fireplace & DR served by a butler's pantry. Both rooms are brightened by huge Palladian windows.
