Property Description
Fieldstone treasure. Gracious stone colonial situated on sought after North Bryn Mawr street. Walkable to town center yet situated in an utterly peaceful and private neighborhood location. No cost has been spared in the renovation and upkeep of this pristine property, from the finest materials and craftsmanship to the extensive work of EB Mahoney. Highlights include: new Vermont slate roof with copper gutters and flashing; new flagstone pool with flagstone terrace and Wisteria pergola; detailed millwork and moldings; custom handmade spanish cedar doors; tumbled marble countertops; coffered ceilings and french doors; a study made from a singular flitch of a Lancaster Oak tree - woodwork that will stop you in your tracks. Well appointed skylights, vaulted ceilings and recessed lighting (done by the same professional who designed the state department lighting!) make for warmly lit spaces with tons of natural light. Not to mention one that will encourage fine art collection. Both the formal living and dining rooms boast gorgeous detailed moldings as well as marble and wood mantel gas fireplaces. This home is elegant and inviting with classic spaces that seamlessly flow to a cozy family room. A statement kitchen opens to a breakfast area and steps down to the family room. A full bath just off the pool with stunning African slate tile is ideal post swim. Upstairs a master suite with Juliette balcony overlooks the breathtaking grounds. The aforementioned study is work-at-home fit for a king and master bath features limestone tile and arched ceiling. Two additional bedrooms with two additional full baths and a laundry suite complete the second floor. The third floor offers space enough for a combination family room, office/studio with vaulted ceiling, dormers and exposed fieldstone. A wine cellar and gym make perfect use of the basement. A full en suite apartment with full bath and kitchen sits above a 2 car garage. The grounds match the exquisite caliber of this interior. Flagstone terraces off the living room, family room and onlooking the pool make for an oasis of inside - outside living. Magazine-worthy gardens, specimen plants and trees make this property utterly enchanting. A thorough in-ground drainage system designed by EB Mahoney as well as an 18-zone lawn and garden irrigation system keep this flat over-an-acre lot thriving effortlessly. Inside, 7 zone heating and 4 zone AC (2015!) bring modern efficiency. Hardwood floors, deep window sills, recessed radiators, and timeless carpentry work preserve every inch of Old World charm. All in Award-winning Lower Merion School district. Walking distance to Bryn Mawr train station, shops and restaurants. Express train to Center City, easy commuting to NYC and beyond. Unusually low taxes for such a spectacular property and location.
