This Northside Haverford classic stone colonial is the special home you’ve been waiting for; nestled on a private property along one of Lower Merion's most sought after streets, within walking distance to the Merion Cricket Club, as well as the shops and restaurants in Haverford Square and the Haverford train station. The flagstone back patio and private yard surrounded by mature plantings provides an oasis for entertaining or enjoying a peaceful retreat. A warm welcome awaits at the gracious front entrance of this beautiful home with numerous architectural delights, including black walnut random width pegged floors, deep silled oversized windows, arched doorways and four wood burning fireplaces. Upon entering through the front hall, a generously sized, light-filled living room greets you, spanning the width of the house and featuring a fireplace framed by a handsome mantel. Floor-to-ceiling windows at the back overlook the flagstone patio, bathing the room in natural light. The adjacent dining room, with its floor-to-ceiling windows and access to the back patio, serves as an ideal space for entertaining. A cozy study offers built-in cabinetry and a fireplace. The kitchen showcases Kountry Kraft custom cherry cabinets, granite counters, high-end appliances, and an abundance of windows providing ample natural light. With counter seating and a breakfast room area, this space becomes a perfect gathering spot, seamlessly connected to the flagstone patio and backyard. Up several steps from the kitchen, a family room awaits, featuring custom built-in cabinets, a fireplace, a soaring ceiling, and a large palladium window. Additional steps off the kitchen lead to where the 5th bedroom with a half bath and a Murphy bed (currently used as an office) offers a private and versatile space. The side entrance boasts a convenient mudroom area feeding into the kitchen with closets, a laundry room, and a half bath. The first floor also includes a front hall half bath and several closets. The second level encompasses an inviting primary suite with a fireplace, closets with built-ins, and an ensuite bath. The second bedroom has its own ensuite bath, while the third and fourth bedrooms share another bathroom. All bedrooms feature spacious layouts and custom built closet interiors. A walk-up full attic provides ample storage space. The lower level expands the living space with a family room, workout room, sauna, full bath, and unfinished utility and storage space, complete with an outside entrance. An attached 2-car garage, storage area with an outside entrance, and a garden shed complete the property. The spacious back yard is completely fenced in. Easy access to Center City, Philadelphia Airport, and the full array of attractions that the Main Line has to offer. Lower Merion award winning schools.
