About This Home

As of September 2023

Tucked away on a small tree lined street, this renovated condo with garage is ideally located across from Merion inbound train station. The corner condo sits far from the street, it has the space (1601 sq ft), hardwood floors, high ceilings, woodwork, fireplace and garage you are looking for. As you enter the foyer of the building, the front door of the unit is to your left, no inside steps up. With your first look you will see gleaming hardwood floors throughout, completely updated open kitchen with an outside exit. The owner has added beautiful stone work surrounding the fireplace. The four windows across the large living room provide eastern exposure. As you enter the full sized dining room with chair rail you see a lovely view of trees through two big windows. The butler's pantry is a charming useful touch from the 1920's when the building was built. The kitchen has granite counter tops with an island for easy working space. Gas cooking and stainless steel appliances are a plus to this attractive generous sized kitchen. This is an eat in kitchen with pantry for extra storage. Laundry area and powder room are adjacent. The two bedrooms have southern and western exposures, and doors to newer bathroom. The bathroom also has access from the hall. The 3rd bedroom or sunroom has a closet, two french doors facing the front of the unit and two windows on the other side of the room. French doors connect to the living room. The garage is accessed by going out of the kitchen, down a flight of steps into the garage which is in lower level. Storage locker is in another lower part of the building. The entire property has lush plantings, and it is located across from Merion Botanical Gardens. The building is about 1 mile from village of Narberth for shopping and walking distance to the new Bala Cynwyd library. Condo fee includes water, hot water and gas for cooking besides other amenities. Owners pay electric separately. One dog up to 30 pounds or one cat permitted. There are 8 steps from sidewalk up to level of building, then walk across the courtyard to CD building.
