A rare opportunity to own a beautifully reimagined home in one of the Main Line's most beloved walkable villages. Masterfully renovated by renowned architect Zimmerman Architects, this charming 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath residence is the rare renovation that gets everything right - all just one block from the heart of Narberth. Light pours through an abundance of windows across three gracious floors. The first floor flows effortlessly from a well-appointed kitchen to a warm living room, formal dining room, mudroom, and powder room - a layout made for both everyday living and easy entertaining. The second floor is anchored by a serene primary suite with a spa-like en suite bath and generous walk-in closet, plus two additional well-sized bedrooms and a full bath. The third floor offers two more charming bedrooms and a bath - ideal for guests, a home office, or a quiet creative retreat. The lower level surprises with a flexible bonus room, extensive organized storage, and a dedicated laundry room. Outside, multiple balconies, decks, and a sun-drenched corner-lot patio extend the living space through every season - and make for the perfect summer gathering spot. A two-car garage with additional storage rounds out this exceptional offering. The location is simply unmatched: steps to Narberth's acclaimed restaurants, boutique shops, and busses and train station, with an effortless commute to Philadelphia and a quick ride to the airport.
