Stunning 2017 renovation by Nirvani Homes this classic center hall stone colonial has the appeal of a 1900’s classic Main Line estate on the outside with an updated and reconfigured interior to accommodate today’s modern lifestyle. Meticulously maintained and freshly painted throughout the fabulous floor plan, moldings, and custom finishes are evident even to today’s most discerning buyer. Approach the home along the Philadelphia Brick walkway and enter into a stunning foyer flanked by formal living and dining rooms accented with elegant moldings and wainscoting, each with a grand gas fireplace. The open eat-in cook's kitchen features beautiful marble countertops, peninsula seating, a custom built-in banquette with storage underneath, a 6 burner Wolf Stove, pot filler, a Thermador refrigerator, Kitchen Aid wall oven and separate convection/microwave oven, a wine refrigerator and an abundance of storage cabinetry. Adjacent to the kitchen is a rear covered porch entering a mudroom for convenient informal everyday use. The beautiful and bright Sunroom allows views of the rear yard, is bathed in light from windows on two sides, and has its own sink, 2nd dishwasher, and cabinetry. It walks out to a lovely patio perfect for grilling (gas line added) and outdoor entertaining. The sunroom would also make a convenient first-floor bedroom if needed as it is adjacent to a full bathroom. Adjacent to the living room is a wonderful, large home office with direct outside access that evokes a feeling of old-world charm with its original stone wall, built-in shelving, and original Philadelphia Brick flooring. The wide sunlit main staircase brings you to the luxurious master bedroom suite where you can find the third fireplace, a huge marble bathroom, complete with a walk-in shower, soaking tub, and dual vanities, plus a huge walk-in custom closet. The second bedroom suite on this level also has a spacious bathroom with a walk-in shower, separate jetted tub, radiant heated floors, and towel bar and offers an adjacent room perfect as a sitting area, homework space, playroom, or additional bed space. Ascending the skylit staircase to the third floor find 3 additional generously sized bedrooms each bathed in light with custom walk-in closets and one offering access to a new roof deck where you can enjoy an evening beverage under the stars or a coffee in the am overlooking the tranquil rear grounds. A skylit spacious full bath with a walk-in shower, separate soaking tub and dual sinks plus laundry complete this floor. The custom-finished basement must not be forgotten- it makes an ideal entertaining space or playroom with its 65' tv, linear fireplace, and gaming area. All this is set on over a half acre of sprawling level ground -fully fenced and large enough to accommodate a pool, outdoor kitchen, fire pit, playset, or your own personal putting green. Detached garage, new siding, new windows, new roof, newer 3 zone HVAC, new plumbing, new electric, 2 outdoor living spaces, and custom walk-in closets in every bedroom. Walking distance to the train, religious establishments, and shopping centers this ideal location in a coveted Main Line neighborhood in Lower Merion school district is in the choice catchment of either Harriton or Lower Merion High School and is not to be missed. Truly nothing to do but move in and unpack!
