Property Description
Built in 1915, this stately English Tudor overlooking the 15th fairway of the famed Merion Golf Club enjoys an exquisite Main Line setting on a picturesque corner lot, in an exclusive estate neighborhood. A winding paved drive with stone motor court guides your entry to magnificent 2.24 acre into beauty graced by lush trees, mature plantings and charming flagstone walkways. Stone walls and lighted entrance piers greet you at both Golf House and Andover Roads. On the property awaits an impressive Center Hall main residence with 8 bedrooms, 5 full and 3 half baths. There's also a separate carriage house with a 5-car heated garage on the first level, private 1400-SF 2-bedroom apartment upstairs. This expansive home of distinction boasts an extensive list of impressive features, such as a classic slate roof, lovely greenhouse, vestibule area upon entry, formal foyer with sweeping grand staircase, stone-walled family entrance/mudroom, airy 9-10' ceilings beautiful woodwork, wainscoting and moldings, random-width hardwood floors, leaded glass windows, 4 fireplaces, 2 laundry rooms, 2 flagstone porches/patios with stunning views, and expansive, private rear grounds large enough for a swimming pool and outdoor complex. Generously-proportioned living spaces optimize comfort for the entire family, with an ideal open flow for large-scale or casual entertaining. A formal living room centered by a Colonial wood-burning fireplace with a carved wood mantel opens to the light-filled family room where everyone loves spending time, with a coffered ceiling, built-in cabinetry, fireplace with gas logs, wet bar, and beverage center. The elegant dining room with a fireplace connects seamlessly to the kitchen and breakfast room. Gather with loved ones while cooking gourmet meals in the updated kitchen with a center dining island, granite countertops, white cabinetry, and stainless steel, Thermador, GE Profile and Bosch appliances. French doors from the breakfast room open to the outdoor patio oasis. Upstairs, a huge master suite with an en-suite bath with a steam shower and radiant heated flooring is separated from the other 4 bedrooms by a dramatic landing. The third floor offers an additional series of rooms including 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The lower level's large club-style recreation room with exposed ceiling beams, wall-to-wall plaid carpeting, fitness, billiards and TV areas, and a fireplace with gas logs is a great escape for all.
