About This Home

As of March 2025

Built in 1951, this refined stone colonial home is situated on a quiet residential cul-de-sac, just a short walk from the Bryn Mawr train station and the vibrant downtown area, known for its selection of restaurants, boutique shopping, and theater. Since its purchase in 2021, the property has undergone a series of thoughtful updates and renovations, enhancing both its functionality and aesthetic appeal while preserving its timeless character.
Wide-plank, lightly stained hardwood floors unify the color palette throughout the first and second floors, creating a harmonious flow. The addition of a south-facing front entry, designed with flagstone floors and wrap-around windows, serves as both an elegant solarium and a functional entry space.
The interior foyer opens to a formal living room with a gas fireplace and a deep bay window, providing a warm and inviting setting. Opposite, the dining room is graced with two exposures of natural light and features smartly styled pocket doors, allowing for separation from the kitchen during formal gatherings.
The kitchen has been meticulously transformed with a focus on both form and function. It features sparkling white cabinetry, stone countertops, and updated polished nickel hardware. A suite of high-end appliances, island seating, and a bright breakfast area make the space ideal for both everyday dining and entertaining. Oversized eastern and southern windows flood the kitchen with natural light, while newly added custom display and storage cabinetry enhance its practicality and elegance.
Wide stairs lead to the dramatic step down family room, where two full walls of windows provide serene views of the rear gardens, lawn, and courtyard. A gas fireplace serves as a focal point opposite custom shelving. A thoughtfully designed bar area with display shelving, a sink, and a beverage chiller connects the formal living room to the family room and leads to a covered patio. This outdoor space extends to a pool, pergola, grill, and an expansive seating and entertaining area.
The second floor features a generously sized furnishable foyer and three well-appointed family bedrooms, each with an en-suite bath and ample closet space. The newly reconfigured primary suite boasts high ceilings, multiple closets, and a luxurious bath, with views overlooking the pool and gardens. A cohesive color palette of neutral whites, beiges, and grays extends throughout, enhancing the home's turnkey appeal.
The lower level includes a stadium-seated movie theater, installed by the current owners, and a walk-in temperature-controlled wine cellar. A spacious laundry room, extensive storage with built-in closets, a half bath, and access to the rear courtyard and guest area complete this level.
Above the three-car garage, a versatile guest space is currently used as a gym and golf simulator. With a full bath with shower, this area can easily be repurposed as a standalone guest suite, home office, media room, or recreational space.
Positioned on a sought-after "trick-or-treat street" and presented in immaculate, move-in-ready condition, this home is a rare opportunity for those seeking a sophisticated and thoughtfully modernized residence.
No appointments will be available before the scheduled open houses on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. No exceptions.
