Like stepping into a fairytale, you can’t help but be swept away by the enchanting surroundings and serene landscape that 245 Broughton Ln. has to offer. Only steps from Villanova University, but so completely tucked away, that you’d have no idea a property like this could even exist in such a prime Main Line location. Enjoy reading a novel, laid out on your private dock along the bank of your private pond, while losing yourself in all that mother nature has to offer. Amongst the robust habitat of birds, bunnies, flowers, and the trees, there’s even a 2,500 sqft move-in ready, cape cod style home, complete with 4 bedrooms (including a large updated primary suite with walk-in closet AND a first floor bedroom) plus three full baths. Additionally, the home has an expansive walk-out lower level that takes you right to the oversized two-car detached garage. While you may have modern updates (open kitchen with granite island, stainless appliances, and shaker-style cabinetry), walls of windows, and hardwood throughout, the simple joy of a warm brick fireplace and views of your private backyard ‘nature preserve’ will leave you calm and recharged. Located in award-winning Lower Merion School District, walking distance to Villanova University, and mere minutes from shops, restaurants, and public transport, this home checks all the boxes.
