Property Description
Stately English Estate Home & Guest Cottage Sanctuary. This lovingly-maintained English-style residence named "Maple Oaks" is a stunning representation of elegance with extensive stonework and rich detail inside and out. Nearly 100 years old, and constructed by EJ Hedden Company, the handsome main home and separate newly-renovated guest cottage affords a private oasis for inhabitants and visitors on exquisite lush grounds. The peaceful, secluded property likens a resort retreat with mature trees, pristine landscaping, rolling gardens, extensive green lawn, an in-ground kidney-shaped swimming pool, flagstone covered terrace, fire pit and fenced-in yard. Though you feel miles away you're actually minutes from it all: the train station, restaurants, Suburban Square, village of Narberth, cinema, farmer's market and award-winning schools. The exclusive family-friendly community with sophisticated homes and quaint historic street lamps is also very convenient to Center City, just 8 miles from City Hall. The seamless flow for entertaining extends from the main living/dining areas out to the rear grounds and pool. The grand interior is highlighted by generous ceiling heights, 3 wood-burning fireplaces, hardwood flooring, crown moldings, oversized windows and luxurious finishes. Upon entry, a vestibule accessing the powder room opens to a Reception Hall with French doors to a sitting room. The living room with fireplace has triple sets of French doors that open to the flagstone terrace and incredible sunroom with triple exposures and 2 Palladian windows to the front and rear. The sunroom and dining room with fireplace access the terrace as well. The sunny gourmet center island kitchen is a chef's choice with granite counters, stainless Viking, Dacor, Sub-Zero and Bosch appliances, and a breakfast area. The hardwood second floor offers 3 bedrooms plus a study/BR with French doors to a balcony. The lovely master suite offers sitting room with fireplace, walk-in and other closets, tiled en-suite bath with a Whirlpool tub and custom frameless glass-enclosed shower. Three more bedrooms sit on the third floor; plus there's an unfinished basement for laundry, mechanicals and storage. The renovated 2-story guest cottage with a living room, BR, full kitchen, bath and 1-car garage is an ideal in-law suite, nanny or pool house.
