Exquisitely renovated farmhouse nestled privately on lush grounds in the heart of Lower Merion Township. Originally built in 1900, the beautiful bones of this classic farmhouse have been utterly transformed with the finest craftsmanship, materials and design finishes. The result is a stunning showpiece with warmth, authenticity and incredible flow. A rare find in any market. Enter the front door to soaring ceiling height, white oak floors, glorious light, and timeless design detail. Every inch of the house is ready for a magazine feature. An airy kitchen features custom light gray cabinets, unlacquered brass hardware, quartz countertop and whitewashed brick tile backsplash. The finest worldly appliances include a dual-fuel Fulgor Milano range for the true gourmet. The sink is centered on a bay window overlooking the enchanting yard. The dutch door to the brick covered porch is finished with a custom stained glass transom matching the front door’s original. An oversized island with seating opens to a beautiful dining room with floor to ceiling windows and glass door to the flagstone terrace. The coziest den with custom builtins is finished with designer vintage wallpaper that pays homage to the little lane shared between neighbors. Pocket doors allow you to close off for privacy. The living room is gracious and inviting, a gas fireplace with floor to ceiling tile mantel is flanked by beautiful windows. Custom window treatments finish the room with softness, function and elegance. Glass double doors echo the dining room and also open to the flagstone terrace. The entire house orients to the backyard sanctuary, embracing the setting at every turn. A powder room with marble sink, unlacquered brass fixtures and grass cloth wallpaper complete this striking first floor. Upstairs, a bright master suite boasts vaulted ceilings, walk-in custom closet and balcony. The ensuite master bath is finished with double marble vanity, black hexagonal tile, glass shower and radiant floors. The shared hall bath is another show stopping feature with 4in thick marble vanity, unlacquered brass finishes, beautiful tile and radiant floors. The three additional bedrooms boast the original hardwoods, high ceilings, oversized windows, ample closet and more glorious light. A second floor laundry center is tucked neatly in the closet of the bedroom serving as an office. A new sound system with built-in speakers runs throughout the house and outside to the living/dining room terrace. This whole house renovation was completed in 2020 by McKenna builders with no cost spared. Perched on over an acre, the picturesque lot is lined with mature trees around open sunny grounds. A weeping willow is gracious all year round. The pool’s max depth is 48”, wonderful for soaking in the summer and poised to be upgraded to a standard pool should you choose. Award-winning Lower Merion School district. A commuter’s dream, close to major roadways and trains for easy access to Center City, KOP, Philadelphia airport and beyond. New septic system was installed in Spring 2020 !
