A historic home transformed to the highest architectural standard of homes designed today. Interiors by the finest designers in the area, this home has received awards and magazine features as showcased most prominently in its formal living and dining rooms. Step down from these classic spaces to the heart of the home - an expansive family room opens to a gourmet kitchen. This great room features 12 coffered ceilings, fireplace, wrap around windows, breakfast area and walk out to the garden.

Three additional bedrooms, one jack and jill and one en suite, are all generously sized with abundant light, tre ceiling and details. The fine touches of this home are carried through every last inch. An office with a fireplace finishes off the second floor. Upstairs a third floor is perfect for an au pair or visiting family with a full sitting area, two generously sized bedrooms and full bath. This home embraces its history without compromising on a single modern day standard. Built in 1897, the sunroom features the original stained leaded glass transoms, which look out to the door-to-door flagstone terrace. Meticulously maintained with unparalleled pride of ownership. Sidewalk steps from the storybook town of Haverford, two blocks from a train station to Center City, NYC, and beyond. A well-manicured line of evergreen trees provide utter privacy. Across the street from Merion Cricket Club with a new resort-grade pool and the very best athletic and social offerings. This combination of historic charm, turnkey open flow, walkability and serene backyard are very rare to find together - this is an exceedingly special opportunity in one of the finest Main Line neighborhoods.
