“Luxurious” doesn’t begin to describe it. This stunning stone manor home offers a rare opportunity to experience high end resort-style living in Leopard Lakes, a neighborhood that might be the Main Line’s best-kept secret. From the fabulous first-floor primary bedroom suite to the upper-level game and media rooms, from the finished lower level to the outdoor living room with fireplace and infinity pool overlooking your personal slice of paradise, this 5-BR, 5/2-BA home on 1.4 acres is the ideal setting for an exceptional lifestyle. The location combines the convenience of the Philadelphia suburbs with the feel of a mountain retreat.
Custom built in 2008, this gorgeous home has more than 9,000 sq. ft. of living space and high-end design details—including thick walls, high ceilings and paneled wood doors, arched doorways featuring stonework and high-gloss woodwork, and large-width hardwood floors. The home is newly painted in neutral tones.
From the brick-paved covered front porch, enter through arched leaded-glass doors into a breathtaking 2-story foyer with Travertine marble floor. Off of the foyer, the dining room, with shiplap beamed ceiling, also opens to the front porch through decorative doors. Also off the foyer, a very chic high gloss, wood-paneled study with arched ceiling features a dramatic chandelier and built-ins.
The living room features a 2-story stone gas fireplace; Palladian windows overlook the rear of the property. The family room has a wood-burning fireplace and offers access to the covered outdoor room with fireplace.
Through a stone archway, the family room flows into the breakfast room overlooking the rear terrace. The gourmet chefs kitchen features a center island with stainless steel and farmhouse sinks and counter seating for 4, a walk-in pantry, and premium appliances, including built in Sub-Zero 30 inch refrigerator with fridge drawers and 30 inch freezer with 2 freezer drawers. Wolf dual-oven stove and 6-burner range with griddle, and 2 Asko dishwashers. A convenient wet bar boasts a Sub-Zero wine cooler, 2 refrigerator drawers and an ice maker.
The first floor also features a laundry room, mudroom and a well planned desk/command center office. Off a separate hallway, enjoy pretty views from a very private primary bedroom suite with new wall-to-wall carpeting, a vaulted ceiling and gas fireplace. The suite includes a sitting room, a dressing room with spacious walk-in closets, and a sumptuous bath with gas fireplace, dual-sink vanity and make-up vanity, water closet, walk-in shower with multiple heads, and a soaking tub.
