About This Home

As of April 2025

Welcome to 535 Ardmore Avenue, a stunning 4-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home located a few hundred yards from historic Merion Golf course. The exterior has beautiful landscaping and sits on .42 acres providing ample space for outdoor enjoyment. As you step inside, you'll be greeted by a grand foyer and an inviting open floor plan, accentuated by tall ceilings that create a sense of spaciousness and airiness throughout the home with a freshly painted first floor.

The main level features a well-appointed kitchen that opens to the family room, perfect for entertaining. The large butler’s pantry with sink provides extra storage and opens to the formal dining with chair railing and crown molding throughout. The spacious living room opens to the family room, which provides a cozy fireplace adding warmth and charm to the living space. There is also a pantry off the kitchen for even more storage, and a powder room off the foyer completes the first floor.

The second floor hosts a convenient laundry area, making household chores a breeze. The master’s suite includes a master bath with whirlpool tub, separate shower and double vanity sink in addition to a walk-in closet. Three additional bedrooms complete the second floor as well as a hall bath. This home also offers the convenience of a finished walk-out basement, ideal for additional living space or a home gym. An attached garage completes the lower level.

Located in the award-winning Coopertown Elementary zone, this spacious home is not only steps away from the golf course club house, but also is next to the trolley station- perfect for workers commuting to the city. Also located near Haverford College walking trails, Suburban Square, and multiple train stations and in the award winning Haverford TWP School District. Additional features include 5 zone sprinkler system, exterior lighting, underground storm draining system and more- schedule a showing today!
