Property Description
Riverfront Living Redefined in Gladwyne. Set directly on the Schuylkill River, this exceptional 4-bedroom, 4.5-bath home offers a lifestyle unlike any other on the Main Line-where mornings begin with sunlight glinting off the water and days unfold effortlessly kayaking, boating, water-skiing, wakeboarding, or simply relaxing along the river's edge. Designed for those who crave connection to nature without sacrificing proximity to the city, this residence captures the rare serenity of waterfront living just minutes from Gladwyne Village and Center City Philadelphia. Inside, 10-foot ceilings, expansive windows, and gleaming hardwood floors create a sense of openness and light. The gourmet kitchen features floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, granite countertops, a large center island, and high-end stainless-steel appliances-perfectly suited for both quiet mornings and lively gatherings. The main living areas flow seamlessly to outdoor terraces and decks, framing stunning river views at every turn. Each bedroom is spacious and tranquil, with beautifully finished baths throughout. A dedicated boat room provides convenience and storage, complementing the private dock that anchors this true riverfront retreat. Few homes offer such an intimate connection to the water-and even fewer combine it with timeless architecture, modern comfort, and the prestige of a Gladwyne address.
