About This Home

As of January 2026

Welcome to 442 East Spring Avenue in Ardmore, perfectly situated facing the beloved South Ardmore Park, this home features a three-story addition (2012) and recent renovations, offering 4 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms, and over 3,400 square feet of refined living space in the heart of the Lower Merion Township and School District within walking distance to multiple shopping, dining, houses of worship, and public transportation options. Enter through a stunning covered porch rebuilt using hand-picked fieldstone and blue flagstone. This beautifully expanded and meticulously updated brick colonial is brimming with warmth, character, and timeless charm. From the moment you step inside, you’ll appreciate the attention to detail—from the gleaming hardwood floors throughout the main level to the elegant arched doorways and custom millwork that echo the home’s classic colonial roots. The bright living room welcomes you with natural light, while the formal dining room flows seamlessly into an open-concept kitchen and breakfast room—ideal for modern everyday living. The updated kitchen includes custom white solid wood cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and access to a mudroom, side entrance, and a stylish first-floor full bath. The expansive family room is the heart of the home, with large windows and a striking gas fireplace with surround made from brick reclaimed from the home’s original 1940s structure. At the rear of the home, a sun-drenched sunroom—perfect as an office or lounge—offers peaceful views of the lush backyard and surrounding greenery. Upstairs, hardwood floors continue through all four bedrooms. The expanded primary suite includes a spacious sitting area that could serve as an office, nursery, or dressing room, along with an updated ensuite bath. Three additional bedrooms share an updated hall bathroom, and a large hall closet provides bonus storage or can function as additional closet space for the primary suite. The finished lower level includes a newly renovated full bath, laundry area, and flexible recreation space—ideal for play, fitness, or a media room. There’s also the option for a stacked laundry unit in the primary closet for added convenience. Outside, enjoy morning coffee or evening sunsets from the beautifully rebuilt covered porch with views of South Ardmore Park. With direct access to the park’s playground, ball fields, tennis and basketball courts, picnic pavilion, and walking trails, this location supports an active, connected lifestyle. The oversized detached garage offers covered parking and generous storage options. Don’t miss your chance to own this exceptional blend of historic charm, modern functionality, and a coveted park-facing setting. Schedule your showing today!
