Property Description
Stately French Colonial in Northside Bryn Mawr - Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac in Northside Bryn Mawr, this elegant French Colonial residence blends timeless architecture with luxurious modern updates. Set on a professionally landscaped .62-acre lot in the renowned Lower Merion School District, this exceptional move-in ready property offers over 4,800 square feet of refined living space, plus an additional approximately 1,000 square feet of fully finished lower level space. A brick pathway leads to grand double entry doors, opening into a dramatic two-story foyer filled with natural light. A sweeping staircase anchors the space, setting the tone for the thoughtful floor plan that balances formal elegance with comfortable everyday living. The main level includes formal living and dining rooms, and a spacious den/home office. The heart of the home is the gourmet kitchen, featuring Wolf and Subzero appliances, custom maple cabinetry, granite countertops, subway tile backsplash, and a center island that opens to a sunny breakfast room and expansive family room. French doors open to a spacious screened-in porch and newly built deck, perfect for al fresco dining and relaxed evenings. A thoughtfully designed wing just off the kitchen includes a laundry room with a large farm sink, a second powder room, a mudroom with custom built-ins, and a second home office/command center with a rich walnut custom built-in workstation. Just off the mudroom there is direct access to the large two-car garage. The private rear yard is truly a resort-like retreat. Enjoy a heated, in-ground pool with new tile, resurfacing, and equipment, a sundeck , and a second seating area perfect for an outdoor dining set and patio furniture. All making for an ideal space for three seasons of entertaining. The fully fenced yard also features an elevated irrigated garden bed, a newly built seating area perfect for a fire pit, and an indoor/outdoor sound system to enhance every occasion. Upstairs, the luxurious primary suite impresses with vaulted ceilings and custom wood arches, two newly installed California Closet walk-ins, and a spa-inspired bathroom with natural stone tile, soaking tub, glass-enclosed shower, dual vanities, and private water closet. Three generously sized bedrooms complete the second level, including a junior suite with private bath and a Jack-and-Jill bathroom both with new vanities from Lavish in Ardmore. The finished lower level adds incredible versatility with a custom bar, home theater area with projector and screen, California Closet storage system, half bath, and plenty of space for a home gym or playroom. Additional features of this home include a new French drain, new gutter and downspout systems and new dual-shade window treatments throughout. This Northside Bryn Mawr location offers a short walk to Harriton High School and is just minutes to many of the region's top private schools. Regional rail and major highways are close by, providing for a short commute to Center City, Conshohocken and King of Prussia. This turn-key property offers the perfect blend of location, luxury, and lifestyle.
