About This Home

As of June 2023

Situated in the desirable neighborhood of Aronwold on an extremely rare, expansive double lot, this stunning, expanded ranch home features 5 bedrooms, 3 full bathrooms, 1 half bathroom, and offers gracious living spaces with hardwood flooring, beautiful custom details, and built-ins. Oversized windows and sliding glass doors provide abundant natural light and views of the gorgeous patio, courtyard, and rear yard, offering park-like grounds and a relaxing large, in-ground pool. The thoughtful expansions on this cottage-like home makes it truly one of a kind!

Entertaining is a breeze with an open floor plan that leads from the formal living room, offering an elegant marble surround fireplace and French doors opening to the rear courtyard, to the dining area, and spacious chef’s kitchen with custom cabinetry, tumbled marble flooring, granite and quartz countertops, massive center island, high-end appliances, and sun-filled breakfast room. Stop for a moment in the cozy sunroom, the perfect gathering place before a meal, and take in the views of the breathtaking rear yard and flagstone patio. The spacious great room with stone fireplace features a spectacular coffered ceiling and custom built-ins, offering a wonderful place to relax with family and friends. There is also a mudroom area with powder room, Dutch door entrance from the driveway, interior access to the two-car garage, and a stairway leading to two of the bedrooms and a full bathroom just above it. This upper-level bedroom area, renovated recently, is perfect for guests, a home office, or an au pair suite. A bonus room, adjacent to the front foyer and currently used as a music/game room, leads to the conveniently located laundry room with a hidden pantry area and access to the full basement.

Relax in the spacious primary suite with vaulted ceiling, two walk-in closets, and beautiful primary bath with dual vanity, custom cabinetry and large tiled stall shower. There are three additional bedrooms on this side of the home, each with ample closet space, and a shared hall bath with tub/shower combo.

This amazing property sits on just on over 2.2 beautiful, level acres, offering a serene outdoor oasis, mature landscaping with many specimen plantings, beautiful flagstone patios, flat, park-like views, and a fenced pool area ready to enjoy in the summer months ahead. The additional subdivided rear lot sits on 1.1 acres and offers endless possibilities!

Tucked away in top rated Marple Newtown School District and minutes to some of the best private academies in the country, this spectacular home is close to the shopping and dining options of Newtown Square, minutes from downtown Wayne, Berwyn and Devon – and for the golfers - Aronimink Golf Club is just steps away! Convenient to all major roadways for an easy commute to Philadelphia and Wilmington, yet the setting is quiet and serene. This location cannot be beat! Don’t wait – this beautiful home is truly a once in a lifetime find!
