About This Home
As of August 2015In a word - FABULOUS! Welcome to 1535 Scrope Road, a beautiful, sprawling cape in the heart of Rydal. Mature trees and beautiful homes line this neighborhood...yet the home is secluded on its private 1.4 acre corner lot. Walk into the huge 24' foyer and see the first glimpse of grandeur with the random-width plank floors...done to perfection. Turn into the formal living room and feast your eyes...this formal living room is HUGE! Adorned with one of 2 fireplaces, 8+ foot ceilings and the same awesome floors, you'll get your first taste of the openness of this home. Walk straight into the dining room, complete with bay window, or turn right and head to the great room - complete with 10' plus ceilings, a floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace and tile floor...but the WINDOWS...a wall full of them, look over a paver patio into the greater-than 2700sf indoor pool house! Beyond the great room and dining room lies the kitchen, a chef's masterpiece...more work space than you can possibly use, and complete with top-end Viking, Jenn-Air and Kitchen Aid stainless steel appliances. Oh, don't forget the huge office or library off the dining room...complete with built-in bar and book shelves, plenty of storage! The builder's attention to detail and craftsman ship is superb. Behind the kitchen is the mud room, laundry room, and inlaw suite, complete with full bath! Two generous-sized bedrooms, each with their own full bath, round out the first floor. You'll LOVE the architecture and attention to detail! Heading upstairs you'll enjoy the additional sizable bedroom, huge walk-in storage closet, and finally - the master. Perfectly laid out - tremendous space with a huge walk-in closet, two additional closets, built-ins, and a spacious master bath ensuite! And of course - the same beautiful random-width floors! The home connects via breezeway to a gorgeous 2200 sq ft HEATED indoor pool house - just remodeled, with separate hot tub, wet bar, bathroom...an entertainment mecca! Feel confident in your new space with a new roof and skylights throughout the house. This gem is not to be missed. Two car detached garage w/openers, a full basement w/walkout, meticulous landscaping, new roof & windows, new driveway...7-zone radionic heat, 2-zone AC...the list goes on and on. You'll TRULY appreciate the LOW TAXES- $13K! Don't wait - this is it! Make your appointment NOW...don't wait! This one most certainly won't last long!
