Property Description
a picturesque 1.1-acre lot overlooking Mill Creek in Northside Bryn Mawr. Designed by Peter Batchelor and built by E. Allen Reeves in 1993, this architectural gem earned the Merit Shop Award of Excellence for superior craftsmanship and design.
Arriving via the inviting circular driveway, you are greeted by the elegant front facade with stone and brick details. Enter through the grand wood front door,flanked by side panels and a transom, into a majestic center hall featuring marble floors, picture frame and crown molding, brass sconces, and a sweeping staircase with a large picture window and impressive chandelier. The grand center hall leads to the main areas of the home through double French doors.
The spacious living room offers two large seating areas and a bay window overlooking the beautifully landscaped rear grounds—ideal for a piano. It includes an elegant crystal ceiling fixture, hardwood floors, crown and picture frame molding, and an exquisite gas fireplace with a marble surround and detailed mantel. A single French door leads to a cozy turret-shaped study with built-in bookcases, cabinetry, and a corner gas fireplace.
On the opposite side of the center hall is the formal dining room, featuring a triple bay window, crown molding, chair rail, hardwood floors, and a butler's swing door leading to the kitchen. The stunning kitchen boasts a large center island with granite countertops, custom maple cabinetry, a tile backsplash, a bronze nickel sink and faucet, and striking pendant lighting. Top-of-the-line appliances include a newer Cafe by GE smart wall oven with convection, a separate microwave, a Thermador gas range with six burners, a Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer, and an instant hot water dispenser. The kitchen opens to a charming breakfast area with door to the expansive wraparound deck and a comfortable family room with hardwood floors, an enclosed iron gas fireplace, built-in bookcases, a flat-screen TV, and a magnificent built-in fish tank. A large rear coat closet, a separate pantry room with cabinetry, and a private powder room with marble flooring and a Kohler pedestal sink complete this area.
The second floor features a sizable primary suite with an inviting sitting area, arched ceiling, and a circular stained glass window at the top of the staircase. The primary bedroom includes a cathedral ceiling, a gas fireplace with a traditional wood mantel and brass sconces, a ceiling fan, and triple bay windows. The attached primary bath offers cathedral ceilings, double vanities, a glass door shower with windows, a large jacuzzi tub, and access to a dressing area with two large customized walk-in closets. The second floor also includes two generously sized bedrooms with ample closet space and a spacious hall bath with a tub and shower, vanity, and built-in cabinetry.
A staircase from the rear hall leads to the third floor, which features two cozy bedrooms and a hall bath with a tub and shower combination. The finished daylight walkout lower level offers additional living space with a large recreation room, a door to the outside patio and rear grounds, a separate au pair suite with a full bath and stall shower (which could also serve as a home office), and a large laundry room with built-in cabinetry and sink. This level also provides access to the three-car garage.
This exquisite home is offered at an exceptional price and is just minutes from the Bryn Mawr train station and the town of Bryn Mawr, known for its shopping and restaurants.
