Built in 1890

Situated on more than an acre of ground, this classic Main Line property features an impressive three-story stone home surrounded by stately trees, an expansive fenced yard, and a built in pool. This solid home is ready for a new owner to bring it back to its full grandeur. Preserved original detail and elements throughout such as such as 5 panel sold wood interior doors and original butler pantry cabinetry offer timeless appeal and add to the character that will anchor the old with the new as updates are completed. A glass vestibule on the right side leads to the charming Dutch Door providing access in characteristic old world style. The welcoming Foyer with corner stone Fireplace and its wide main staircase that guides you to the second floor landing with windows along the front of the house allows an abundance of natural light into both the first and second floors. The Foyer also houses an elevator which was one of the first residential elevators installed on the Main Line and adds architectural interest as well as function. The spacious Living Room is on the right, straight ahead is a Powder Room on the left, the Butler Pantry which leads to the Kitchen and the Dining Room with French Doors opening to the yard. Beyond the Kitchen is a Family Room with exposed stone wall and a mudroom with outside access thru an enclosed porch. The informal area has two back staircases to the second floor, one from the Kitchen to the Main Second Floor and the other from the Family Room to a private ensuite Bedroom. The grand foyer staircase provides access to four nicely size Bedrooms as does the Kitchen Staircase. The Primary ensuite Bedroom is adjacent to a separate Bedroom through an arched Hallway, which currently houses a washer/dryer and built in cabinetry. Expanding the Primary suite into this Bedroom still allows for 4 nicely sized Bedrooms on the second level. At the top of the Main Stair Hall is an additional ensuite Bedroom with French doors that offer views overlooking the grounds and a fireplace. Down the hall is a Full Bath, an additional Bedroom as well as closed door access to stairs to the main level and third floor with high ceilings and very livable space. Three full Bedrooms, one with French doors that open to a covered balcony, a Bonus Room that functions well as a playroom, a finished storage area and a Full Bath complete this level. The Basement has walk-out access to the left side of the house and daylight windows. Newer Gas Heater and Gas Hot Water Heaters. 200 Amp Electrical Service. This Prime location provides convenient access to all major roadways. Walk to Villanova Regional Rail and Trolly Stations, Shopping and Restaurants, or a close drive or use the train to enjoy Dining and Shopping in nearby Wayne, Bryn Mawr and Ardmore as well as Conshohocken. Property is Class 2 on Lower Merion Historic Registry.
