About This Home

As of April 2020

Combining traditional influence with contemporary convenience, this magnificent 2007 six-bedroom stone Colonial is an outstanding, peaceful retreat in coveted Newtown Square. This magnificent home is filled with bespoke craftsmanship that recalls a bygone era. Custom millwork and deep crown moldings highlight 10-foot-ceilings and gleaming hardwood floors. The spectacular layout and position on a 1.68-acre lot overlooking the prestigious Aronimink golf course provide an inviting flow for entertaining and seamless indoor-outdoor living. To the right of the grand foyer entry, formal living spaces include a stately living room with a gas fireplace and a large dining room that flows to a bright sunroom with three exposures and a wet bar trimmed in custom cherry cabinetry. To the left of the entry, French doors reveal a handsome study with built-in bookshelves. The rear of the level is devoted to informal great room living. The cozy family room beckons with coffered ceilings and a commanding stone fireplace. The adjacent French country kitchen dazzles with custom cabinets, granite countertops and an army of professional-grade appliances, including a Sub-Zero refrigerator and a Viking 48-inch six-burner gas range with double ovens. Enjoy casual meals at the long center island or spacious breakfast room, or head outside through floor-to-ceiling glass doors to enjoy al fresco dining on the massive rear deck. Here, a bubbling hot tub sits beneath a charming gazebo while rolling lawns and golf course views fan out before you. A second home office, two powder rooms, well-planned storage and a mudroom entry from the three-car attached garage complete the main level. Ascend the graceful main staircase or rear stairs to the second floor to find a sumptuous master suite featuring a private sitting room, a large bedchamber topped in vaulted ceilings, boutique-inspired walk-in closet and a palatial en suite bathroom with a soaking tub, rain shower, water closet and two vanities. Four more bedroom suites, each with a large closet and private bath, are found on this level, and the walk-in cedar linen closet and large laundry room with side-by-side washer-dryer and utility sink make laundry day a breeze. On the third floor, a sixth oversized bedroom suite with its own dedicated heating and cooling system ensures plenty of room for friends and family. The walk-out lower level, meanwhile, provides space for every possible activity. There's a well-equipped home theater with leather stadium seating, a craft room, a large home gym with a private shower room, a game room with a bar, extra living space, plus basement storage. Up front, a circular drive and classic stone facade add irresistible curb appeal to this special home. This property is located near renowned country clubs, parks and top-rated private schools, including nearby Episcopal Academy. Enjoy easy access to shopping and dining in Wayne or Newtown Square, plus easy access to Philadelphia, Wilmington or New York City by car or train. Note: The neighborhood is in the midst of working with Peco to have gas lines extended on Sawmill Road. Once approved, this property will have access to gas.
