About This Home

As of May 2020

Spacious home in one of Merion Station's most idyllic neighborhoods! This 6 bdr 3.5 bath property has been lovingly maintained by its current family, and is move-in ready. Just a quick walk to Merion Elementary, as well as the Septa R5 Regional Rail at the Merion Station train stop, houses of worship, and the Merion Botanical Garden, this location takes advantage of the Blue Ribbon Award winning Lower Merion School District, while also offering a quick and easy 12 minute commute into the city...without getting in your car! Property features mature trees and plantings overlooking lovely gardens and a terraced patio by the culvert babbling alongside Valley Rd. Built in 1922, this old world charmer, with gorgeous pine and oak inlaid hardwood floors, offers thoughtful updates which allow for modern conveniences. Natural light abounds in the sunny family room, dining room, bright eat-in kitchen, powder room and 3 season bonus room with its southern and western exposure-all on the first floor! With three options for egress, from the kitchen, laundry room/office, and sunroom, access to the back gardens is just steps away. The features of the second floor include 4 ample sized bedrooms, one with Jack and Jill bath, as well as an elegant full shower hall bath. The 3rd floor features 2 more lovely bedrooms and a shared hall bath with tub/shower combination. A two car garage off private driveway is great for storage or actually parking your car! In addition, there's a new roof (installed in November) and new 200 amp electrical panel with no knob and tube wiring. Lower level basement is unfinished and currently used as a working space for the home owners. Quick settlement possible! Virtual Tour linked above!
