Property Description

Set along Amherst Road in Lower Merion's College Park neighborhood, this classic stone Colonial is a home defined by the rhythm of everyday life - spring mornings with magnolias in bloom, light moving through deep windows, and evenings gathered around the fire as the seasons change. Inside, the main level feels welcoming and comfortable, with a layout that supports both daily living and time together. The living room, centered around a wood-burning fireplace and bay window, serves as the natural anchor of the home, while a tucked-away office offers a quiet place to work without stepping away from the life of the house. The dining room and kitchen support everything from weeknight dinners to larger gatherings, with an easy connection to the backyard when the day moves outside. The finished lower level becomes the space people tend to settle into - a comfortable, all-season room for relaxing, watching a game, or spending time together. A place that naturally becomes part of the daily routine. Thoughtful updates over time - including renovated baths, updated systems, and significant exterior improvements - reflect consistent care and investment. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a calm retreat with a renovated bath and walk-in closet, along with three additional bedrooms, an updated hall bath, and second-floor laundry. A walk-up attic provides substantial additional storage. Outdoors, the property is shaped by mature landscaping, irrigated gardens, and a private backyard designed for both quiet mornings and evenings around the fire pit with friends. Set within a neighborhood known for its strong sense of community, with close proximity to parks, trails, the train, and Center City, this is a home that offers a rare balance of access and everyday livability - ready for its next chapter.
