Property Description
Get the whole package in this standout Merion Park home! Enjoy the best of family living in a beautiful 4 bedroom Colonial with a great layout and location, in a desirable, friendly community. This stone-front charmer affords an inviting feel from the moment you arrive. Set on a prime corner lot, and lovely landscaped grounds brimming with seasonal blooms and mature gardens is an attractive, comfortable, functional residence you will surely fall in love with, zoned for some of the best schools around! All newer top-quality Renewal by Anderson and Pella windows bring generous natural light into every room while providing energy efficiency. A gracious entry foyer with hardwood floors, arched openings and a wood staircase welcomes you inside. Relax with the family or entertain guests in the large living room with a fireplace, share meals in the formal dining room with bay window, and cook up culinary creations for any occasion in the spacious kitchen. The warm wood-paneled family room is the hub of the home, with tasteful built-ins and generous space for reading, working, gathering and watching TV. Here you’ll also enjoy a scenic view of the garden through French doors that lead outside. Bedrooms are generously-proportioned and sun-filled, offering versatility if you need a home office, studio or playroom as well. Expanding the possibilities is a finished basement with exposed wood beams that makes an ideal rec room or gym. For a taste of the outdoors, you can sit peacefully on the screened side porch with a good book and cup of coffee, or barbecue and dine alfresco on the English garden-inspired rear brick patio, walled by privacy hedges. Central air conditioning keeps you cool indoors in the heat of summer. The location tops the appeal. Around the corner is General Wayne Park with a playground, ball fields and tennis courts for outdoor family fun. Plus, you’re in walking distance to top schools, libraries, shopping and restaurants, and in close proximity to Center City!
