Warm, inviting and beautiful describes this exceptional family home in the heart of Penn Valley featuring 4 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms, 2 half baths, and generous indoor-outdoor space for living and entertaining! If you~re seeking a special residence in an excellent neighborhood, this elegant Colonial is the one to see, nestled on private lush grounds with a fabulous in-ground pool and rear cabana for the ultimate summer pleasure. Inside the house assures an equally captivating experience, with a gracious entry foyer pouring into stunning living space boasting abundant light and air, and great attention to detail. The formal living room with a fireplace, beamed ceilings, oversized windows and rich hardwood floors is a perfect backdrop for hosting guests or relaxing with the family. A grand dining room adorned with tasteful moldings affords both comfort and sophistication when sharing meals. Congregate together while the cook prepares delicious fare in the finely-appointed kitchen - a real showstopper with expansive Woodmode cabinets for storage, exquisite finishes, premium appliances including a Wolf 6-burner range with built in grill, double ovens & Sub-Zero fridge, plus a huge center island with seating and sunny open breakfast area leading to the outdoor oasis. Spend time conversing, reading, or watching TV by the wood-burning fireplace in the spacious family room brimming with classic charm. A lovely powder room is close at hand for convenience. Up the main staircase awaits a sky-lit landing and your sleeping quarters, highlighted by a large, tranquil master bedroom retreat with a gas fireplace, 2 walk-in closets, and private balcony overlooking the pool and grounds. The serene spa-inspired en-suite master bath indulges the senses with a furniture-quality double-sink vanity, large soaking tub and glass-enclosed shower. Two additional well-proportioned bedrooms share a full bath, while the fourth bedroom is complete with its own en-suite bath and cozy wood-burning fireplace. Laundry is also on this level for added convenience. The finished lower level is a haven for parties with a bar, rec area, and family/media room, as well as a bonus bedroom and full bath for sleepovers! Yet nothing compares to being outdoors enjoying the gorgeous pool and property, with a flat yard surrounded by mature trees and an invisible fence for the dog. A whole house generator, sprinkler and alarm systems, and transferrable home warranty sweeten the pot. Topping the appeal is the coveted location close to the SEPTA, shops, restaurants, and award-winning Lower Merion schools, and just 20 minutes away from Center City. 2020-02-13
