Tucked away in the quiet College Park neighborhood of Bala Cynwyd, you’ll find this stately throwback of an early Main Line stone colonial. This classic beauty just oozes with character, from the brick, slate, & stained-glass accents to the extensive landscaping & hardscaping. Enter the open foyer and enjoy the charm of arched doorways, original hardwood, and a wood-burning fireplace. On top of formal living and dining spaces, the first floor includes an expansive one-of-a kind mid-century-esque family room boasting exposed beams, built-in grill-included kitchenette, an original stone accent wall, and both floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding-glass doors leading to the freshly painted deck. Sit back, relax, or entertain by the wood-burning stove and gaze out on your beautiful, expansive, and updated multi-level brick patios. This level also incorporates a dine-in kitchen and powder room. The 2nd floor includes a large primary en-suite bedroom as well as two graciously sized additional bedrooms which share the hall bath. The 3rd floor includes an expansive alternate-primary bedroom complete with a reading nook, updated walk-in AND cedar closets, as well as a private updated bathroom. The walk-out lower level hosts a playroom, laundry room, and extensive storage. Additional features include a two-car detached garage, new windows, gas furnace, and kitchen appliances. This fabulous home is just waiting for you to add your personal touch. Conveniently located inside award-winning Lower Merion Township and within walking distance to both Cynwyd Elementary and Bala Cynwyd Middle Schools. Minutes from I-76, Manayunk, and all that Center City Philadelphia has to offer.
