Property Description
259 Barwynne Rd - Award-Winning Location. Exceptional Entertaining. Resort-Style Living. Located in one of Wynnewood's most desirable neighborhoods within the award-winning Lower Merion School District, this thoughtfully maintained 3,471 square foot multi-level residence offers exceptional space, seamless flow, and the confidence of substantial capital improvements already completed. Designed for both everyday living and memorable gatherings, the home unfolds with effortless transitions across distinct entertainment levels. A covered slate porch welcomes you into a gracious foyer that opens to formal living and dining spaces, highlighted by striking white marble floors with black inlay and floor-to-ceiling windows with direct access to a slate porch for seamless indoor-outdoor dining. The kitchen anchors the main level with views of the private backyard and pool, keeping daily life connected to the outdoors. Just a few steps down, the renovated family room serves as the true entertaining hub, featuring custom cabinetry, a granite wet bar, a wood-burning fireplace, recessed lighting, and access to a covered porch leading to the beautifully landscaped yard and pool. The remodeled lower-level bath enhances functionality for guests while entertaining or during poolside gatherings. The fully renovated and waterproofed lower level provides flexible recreation space ideal for play, fitness, media, or music, along with a redesigned laundry room featuring custom cabinetry and utility sink. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a private retreat with updated bath, custom closet organizers, and its own deck overlooking the pool. Two additional bedrooms and an updated hall bath complete the second level. The third floor features a separate suite with full bath, sitting area, and generous storage, ideal for guests, extended family, or a private workspace. Outdoor living is equally compelling. The pool was renovated in 2022 with updated equipment, cover, and robotic cleaner. Slate patios, retaining walls, and extensive stonework have been professionally restored and maintained, creating a secluded, resort-style setting designed for relaxation and entertaining. Beyond lifestyle appeal, this home delivers substantial peace of mind. Major capital improvements include roof replacement (2019), new HVAC systems (2025), full basement waterproofing (2021), extensive plumbing upgrades, whole-house generator installation, enhanced attic insulation, driveway resurfacing, and masonry restoration. This is a property where the heavy lifting has been done. Expensive systems have been replaced, not deferred. In a premier Lower Merion location with limited inventory, 259 Barwynne Lane offers immediate lifestyle appeal and long-term value. Ideally situated within walking distance to parks, the library, top-rated Lower Merion schools, houses of worship, and public transportation, and with convenient access to shopping, local businesses, and Center City, this home combines community, accessibility, and enduring value in one exceptional offering! Showings begin Thursday from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM. Private tours are available by appointment.
