Rich in architectural character, the home showcases thoughtful design elements throughout its expansive living spaces, beginning with a striking stone exterior, inviting front courtyard, and double carport accented by warm, natural tones. The entry opens to an impressive living room featuring new tile flooring, soaring ceilings, recessed lighting, dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows, a unique curved fireplace, and sliding glass doors leading to a spacious rear deck. The adjoining dining room is equally well suited for intimate gatherings or large-scale entertaining, with a high ceiling and direct access to a stone patio.

Two separate stone patios provide additional opportunities for outdoor dining and relaxation. A long corridor lined with generous closet space leads to the spacious primary suite, complete with three walk-in closets and an ensuite bathroom featuring a double vanity, soaking tub, and glass-enclosed shower. Sliding doors open to a peaceful private atrium, while an adjoining den or home office features a wall of built-in cabinetry. Five additional bedrooms offer excellent closet space and abundant natural light, including one with an ensuite bath, along with an additional full hall bathroom. The lower level provides flexible accommodations ideal for an au pair, guests, or an in-law suite, with a private bedroom and full bathroom. One of the home’s most remarkable features is the large indoor swimming pool, offering year-round enjoyment for lap swimming, recreation, or entertaining. The rear deck and multiple patios further extend the living space outdoors and provide wonderful settings for relaxing or gathering with family and friends. This exceptional property offers a rare combination of privacy, architectural character, generous living space, and endless possibilities. Located within the award-winning Lower Merion School District and convenient to shopping, dining, entertainment, major roadways, public transportation, and Center City Philadelphia. An additional opportunity exists to purchase the approximately 1.07-acre adjacent lot, providing the option to build a new residence, create a multi-generational compound, or expand the existing living space and grounds.
