About This Property

UPDATE: NEW ELECTRICAL WIRING TO REPLACE REMAINING KNOB-AND-TUBE BEFORE CLOSING *OR* BUYER CREDIT TO COVER. Elegant English Tudor style home on a beautiful, professionally landscaped property. Homes in this cluster of coveted properties rarely come on the market as owners hold onto them for decades. Walk a half block to commuter rail for a short ride to downtown Philadelphia or to many stops on the Main Line, east and west. Walking distance to a farmer's market, restaurants, and downtown Wayne, and close to many shops, libraries, parks, trails, nightlife, and grocers. Close access to many major highways. Top-rated Tredyffrin-Easttown schools and very low taxes. The stunning arched front door looks like it belongs on an English castle. A handsome, custom electronic garage door enables convenient entry into the house from inside the garage. The garage has a 240v outlet for EV charging and power tools. A spacious deck provides easy access from the kitchen for relaxation with privacy or for entertaining. Two staircases lead from the deck to the back lawn and to a large brick patio for barbecuing where there's plenty of space for a firepit. Paver walkways provide access to the deck and patio from the driveway. Security lighting along the entire perimeter of the house lights the way with motion detection as one steps from each zone into the next. Security cameras allow for photo capture as well. The eat-in kitchen has radiant heat in the floor and stainless appliances including an ultra-quiet Miele dishwasher, a recent 36-inch Wolf induction range and a recent Bosch refrigerator. Back stairs from the kitchen meet the main staircase for extra privacy. A full-size dining room allows for easy entertaining. A wood inlay star medallion in the floor transitions from a half bathroom, down several oak stairs to a tiled laundry room. Here are a recent top-rated washer and dryer with storage drawer pedestals as well as a utility sink. This laundry room has a door to the patio and also leads inside to the full-size unfinished basement. Off the living room is an enclosed porch/sunroom with large windows and room to accommodate an office setup. On the second floor, the primary bedroom with ensuite bathroom adjoins a second bedroom which can be used as a nursery, sitting room or office. Off the hall is another full bathroom as well as a bedroom with an adjoining bonus room. On the third floor is an ensuite bedroom/bathroom with an updated clawfoot tub. An additional bonus room has numerous possibilities. Stained glass windows in the front door and in the foyer, cast colors onto the walls in the sunlight. The house features significant natural lighting from the many windows which include singular styles characteristic of English Tudors. Professional perennial landscaping has something in bloom from late winter until late fall, providing significant privacy in the backyard and serene beauty all around the property. This is a very special property, boasting exceptional aesthetic desirability as well as convenient location.
