Property Description
Impeccably maintained, renovated & re-landscaped stone & stucco gem with all the luxuries one seeks in modern homes along with the charm of a classic Main Line Colonial. The secluded location in the heart of Bryn Mawr is incomparable, set on the less-traveled section of Old Gulph Rd with a stone wall & privacy trees isolating you further. The house is perfectly positioned to take advantage of lovely views of Mill Creek which meanders through the grounds. Sit on the rear patio in summer & enjoy total tranquility, while the little ones fish in the creek or play in the backyard. The flagstone path that wraps around is great for walking, jogging & riding bikes or scooters. There's also a zip line which goes over the creek! Built in the 1960's, the home was gutted & redone in 2005, with new electric, appliances & Grand Manor shingle roof, copper gutters, etc. Care was also taken to waterproof with a French drain installed in the front yard keeping the basement bone-dry. An elegant center hall foyer w/coat closets & powder room whisks you into bright, airy living space enriched by hardwood floors & decorative moldings. Though an opening at left is the living room w/fireplace flanked by built-ins, offering scenic views & doors to the rear patio. To the right is a dining room w/a bay window & glass-paneled door to the kitchen for seamless entertaining. Much time will be spent in the kitchen/family room w/mesmerizing views. The cook always feels part of the activity with the family room connected to the spacious kitchen appointed w/granite countertops, built-in appliances, a dining island & breakfast room. Double doors proceed to the mudroom entrance w/powder & laundry rooms + entry to the 2-car garage. A den/office with coffered ceilings, gas fireplace, bay window, surround-sound entertainment center & patio door is a comfortable place to unwind. The hardwood 2nd floor presents 3 bedrooms, a hall bath & divine master suite with a balcony, fitted closet & spa bath w/a sky-lit shower, soaking tub & dual sink marble-top vanity. Closet ladders in BRs 2 & 3 ascend to the "secret" finished attic space, a tent-shaped play place w/skylights! A finished 3rd flr BR suite w/a bath are B&B-like quarters facing the creek & grounds. The finished basement has generous rec & storage space. Two patios look down on Mill Creek & are ideal for large parties. Prime location next to Harriton Park. Easy walk to the train station, Bryn Mawr & Bryn Mawr College on quiet Millbank Rd!
