    What's special

    Bursting with potential, this gracious, brick Cape Cod is nestled on a leafy corner lot in Villanova’s coveted Parkes Run neighborhood with priceless views of Ardrossan Farm. For motivated, visionary buyers, this is an incredible opportunity to put your stamp on a premier Main Line address with historic roots. Built around a sprawling stone terrace and landscaped grounds, this home prioritizes scenic views and outdoor access at every turn. From the front driveway with stone retaining wall, double glass entry doors open to a sunny brick foyer that offers unobstructed sightlines to the expansive back patio and greenspace. A short side hallway leads to a bright and inviting family room with beamed ceiling, recessed lighting, custom built-ins and brick accent wall with gas fireplace. The family room connects to a cheery kitchen with plentiful cabinetry, center island and large architectural window framing the rolling hills of Ardrossan Farm. From the kitchen, an arched opening reveals a glorious, sky-lit sunroom with vaulted ceiling, oversize window seat with stone bench and a wall of glass sliders leading to the home’s rear grounds and terrace. The sunroom also offers convenient access to the first-floor powder room and oversize two-car garage. Off the other side of the kitchen sits a lovely, light-filled dining room and a large living room beyond with wood-burning fireplace and yet another wall of glass sliders. On the opposite wing of the main floor, you’ll find a spacious corner bedroom with ensuite full bath, plus the primary suite with ensuite full bath, ample closet space and direct access to the rear stone patio. Upstairs features three additional bedrooms—all with enviable views of the home’s spectacular landscape—plus a split hallway bath. Outside, an elegant stone terrace runs the entire width of the home, with multiple areas for lounging and dining al fresco. Stone steps lead to an in-ground pool surrounded by over an acre of private, fenced greenspace. At the rear of the property, a gurgling stream runs beneath one of the home’s most distinctive features—a historic Spring House circa 1860. The two-story structure was converted into a charming guest cottage by the current owners, who went to great lengths to incorporate modern features and amenities while preserving its historic character and charm. The cottage boasts a full kitchen with island seating, a cozy living room with wood- burning fireplace, a covered back porch, two bedrooms and a full hallway bath. While the Spring House features its own entrance and parking, it also connects to the main house via a covered brick and stone walkway. Bringing the very best of town and country living to one enviable address, this distinctive property is just minutes from downtown Wayne and other popular Main Line destinations. Zoned for award-winning Radnor Township School District and close to several premier private schools too! Please note this property is being sold as-is.
