About This Home
As of January 2023This unique property in the heart of the South Wayne Historic District is within walking distance to the many wonderful restaurants and shoppes that make downtown Wayne a destination on Philadelphia's Main Line. Once part of a larger Main Line Estate from yesteryear, this historic house underwent a 'to the studs' renovation and expansion in 2016. Achieving the rare combination of retaining its historic appeal, updated with all of life's modern conveniences, 211 Orchard Way is easy living in one of the area's premier locations. The heart of the home is the large Great Room, with its cozy stone fireplace and antique wood mantel set against a shiplap wall. The Great Room opens to the beautifully designed Chef's Kitchen, which is sure to play host to hours of endless entertaining. The adjacent Dining Room opens to a wonderful wrap-around porch overlooking the terraced rain garden that sees all manner of springtime songbirds. Flanking the other side of the entryway, the Gathering room doubles as either a formal Living Room or Game Room, providing for hours of family entertainment. Tucked away at the rear of the house is an intimate Office or Study that leads to a flagstone Courtyard Patio. Upstairs there are 4 Bedrooms with 3 fully renovated Bathrooms, each with its own character and one retaining the charm from its role in the original , 100-year-old design. For those looking for old world charm with modern convenience in a 'walk to Wayne' location, in one of the Main Line's premier neighborhoods, 211 Orchard Way presents an excellent value. Pool table is included.
