About This Home

Ultra-Rare opportunity to own a gracious 3-story Center Hall Colonial in the heart of Narberth. This elegant 5 bedroom, 2.5 bath home is filled with timeless character and extraordinary original detail—tall ceilings, a dramatic flared staircase with windowed landing, original hardwood floors, artisan built-ins, deep-set windows, wainscoting, moldings, wide baseboards, crystal doorknobs, and beautiful circular flow for entertaining. The sun-drenched first floor offers a grand foyer, oversized living room with gas fireplace and built-in bookshelves, formal dining room, cozy office, updated kitchen with stainless appliances, pantry/mudroom, powder room, and access to a private fenced yard with hot tub, ideal for al fresco dining and gatherings. A fabulous covered front porch and attached garage with private driveway complete the offering.

The unfinished basement offers additional storage and future possibilities. Move right in and enjoy as-is, or update and make it your own — priced to sell with tremendous upside for a buyer with vision. Great bones, rare scale, and a location that is hard to duplicate. Walk to Narberth Park, library, boutiques, restaurants, and the R5 train to Center City Philadelphia, all within the top-rated Lower Merion School District. This is a rare opportunity to own a SINGLE FAMILY HOME, on a sidewalk street that is in one of the Main Line’s most beloved communities — DO NOT WAIT!!!!
