Come see an elevated Pembrey model in the Haverford Reserve with more upgrades than you can imagine! From the moment that you step into the gracious Foyer, you appreciate the thoughtful choices that make this house a charming showplace of warmth and character. The heart of the home is a gorgeous Chef’s Kitchen with rich, ample cabinetry and a layout that is ideal for entertaining. The upgraded appliances include a full-size Subzero Refrigerator-Freezer combination large enough to hold everything that you need for the most elaborate gathering. To the side of the Kitchen, a Butler’s pantry connects the Kitchen to additional pantry storage and the lovely Formal Dining Room. The adjacent eat-in breakfast room leads to French doors that open to a spacious and very private paver patio with lush views and foliage. Another showstopper is the grand Home Office, suitable for the most accomplished executives. The office has loads of custom built-ins that will take your breath away while inspiring your best ideas. Rounding out the main level are two living spaces - a formal Living Room with loads of natural light, and a large, vaulted Family Room with gorgeous wood beams, as well as a Powder Room and a Mud Room with custom built-in storage. The Lower Level has a stately wet bar with ample seating around the granite counter tops and a mini refrigerator for entertaining ease. Enjoy relaxing, playing billiards and watching your favorite sports. This level can easily accommodate overnight family and friends with a large space that serves as a fourth bedroom - and a luxurious full bathroom. The bedroom space can, also, be converted into a dedicated exercise area. There is also plenty of extra storage. On the top level, you will find a uniquely designed Main Bedroom. Additional square footage, smartly borrowed from a redesign of the two-story Foyer, enables large his and hers closets. The ensuite bathroom includes a deep free-standing clawfoot soaking tub, separate his and hers vanities, and a large shower. All of this is elevated even more by the elegant wallpaper background. In addition to the Main Bedroom on this level, you will find two additional bedrooms connected by a large, well-designed Bathroom and a Laundry Room. Additional upgrades include a Sonos music system, a full house generator, and custom wainscotting millwork on the first and second levels. If needed, the hall closets have been plumbed and pitted for a future elevator. Not one detail was overlooked, down to the glass doorknobs throughout the home! The Haverford Reserve is set among 120 acres of parkland with walking trails; there is a Community Recreation Center; playing fields and a dog park. The location is just minutes from the Septa train and a short drive to Center City and the Philadelphia International Airport.
