About This Home

As of October 2018

A one of a kind stone colonial that provides all who enter with a sense of warmth and surprise, that one home could provide so much charm and beauty in every space. Entry via a gracious circular drive provides easy access to Sycamore Mills Road and a sneak peak at the beautiful yard. The formal entrance is highlighted by a two story foyer with a curved staircase finished in custom moldings. A welcoming garden gate to a breezeway patio is where friends and family make their first stop to enjoy a sample of the views, direct access to the playground area,or a short stop before entering the bright and airy kitchen. This space, which hosts the original classic stone fireplace, is used as a cozy seating area. The family room and kitchen additions were thoughtfully designed to be the center for relaxation and entertaining include crown moldings, custom built in shelves, and large windows that align with the timeless details of the original home construction. The modern kitchen fixtures, granite counter tops, built in serving bar/desk,and stainless steel appliances, provide a stylish setting for today's informal daily living and gatherings. Additionally, SONOS surround sound throughout this space and outside. The family room has custom French doors that exit to the flagstone patio, which is a world unto itself, providing a serene backdrop for sunrises, sunsets, nights by the fire pit, dinner parties, and spectacular views. Oversized sliding doors from the formal dining room provide additional access to the home and patio which allow for easy flow when entertaining. Pocket French doors separate the formal living room and elegant dining room with the ability to set the ambiance for your entertaining experience. The detailed crown moldings and woodwork are highlighted by the natural light from all the windows and doors, including the open staircase to the basement. The second floor has five spacious bedrooms including a master bedroom with crown moldings, recessed lighting, and a master bath as well as two additional full bathrooms and a center hall custom window well seat. A second floor laundry room that's bright and accessible makes for less clutter and ease of use for all. A finished basement for additional entertainment, relaxation, exercise, and space for all ages includes custom built in shelves, closets, and hidden storage. Did we mention location?! This home is set among the backdrop of the historic Ridley Creek, Downtown Media, Phila airport, RTMSD.
