About This Home
As of April 2025You do not want to miss this turn-key Narberth gem in a wonderful neighborhood! Welcome to 517 Merwyn Road nestled on a quiet, sidewalk and tree lined street, yet walkable to everything that idyllic Narberth has to offer. This home boasts 5 bedrooms, and 4 full bathrooms, including a full bathroom on the first floor. Originally built in 1925, the prior and current owners have thoughtfully curated this home to its current expansive state offering over 3700 square feet of living space. The extensive renovations and reimagination of this center hall colonial resulted in the perfect combination of an open flowing floor plan with modern amenities, while preserving the older character and charm. This home features fabulous curb appeal with a perfectly pointed driveway and walkway to the front door, extensive landscaping, a perennial garden, a shed, and a large side flat yard lined with a white picket fence. Open the front door to a magnificent foyer area featuring the gorgeous staircase to the upper levels. To your right, is an open sunlit sitting area with a wood burning fireplace. There is a side door off this room leading out to the flagstone patio perfect for outdoor entertaining! This area flows directly into a beautiful dining area and gourmet kitchen, fully renovated in 2019. The kitchen is white and bright, featuring a stainless steel sub zero refrigerator, GE Profile natural gas oven and microwave, Bosch dishwasher, undermount sink and ample cabinet and pantry storage. The countertops are a light solid surface complete with a tile backsplash which compliment the white cabinetry. The left of the large foyer is a spacious living room, complete with a full newer bathroom. You can also enter this living room from the kitchen. This living room also has its own door to the front of the property, and a charming covered front porch. Beautiful hardwood floors and craftsman style moldings run throughout the home. On the 2nd level you will find an extra large primary suite. Enter the suite through a "bonus" sitting area/changing room, and then step up to the primary bedroom, and en-suite a full, newer bathroom and laundry area. Directly off the primary suite is a private renovated porch with an electric awning - the perfect spot to relax with morning coffee! The 2nd level is complete with 2 additional bedrooms, and a full hall bathroom with bathtub. Continue up to the 3rd level of the home to see the 2 additional spacious bedrooms with abundant closet space, and another full, newer bathroom. The 3rd floor offers so much possibility including: home office/gym space, au pair/in-law guest quarters or playroom! Endless possibilities! The lower level is unfinished, providing ample storage space and another laundry area, as well as Bilco doors to the outside. This home is located in the ultra convenient town of Narberth, walkable to the train to Center City Philadelphia, shops, restaurants, and coffee shops.
