Property Description
Welcome home to this picturesque gem on a private cul-de-sac in Merion Station. Built in the 1890's as the Carriage House to a larger Estate, this charming Queen Anne-style cottage boasts of historical significance in an unbeatable setting and location. The front yard is lushly landscaped, a huge front porch features a slate floor, and a private fenced backyard opens directly to Merion Elementary School, a Blue Ribbon School. The bustling Borough of Narberth is just steps away, as is the train station that connects to Center City Philadelphia, the western Main Line, and Amtrak's northeast corridor. On the first floor, a spacious, tiled foyer opens to a large living room and a formal dining room, each with refinished hardwood floors. The living room features a large stone fireplace and leads to a bonus room that can be a home theater or office. Beyond the kitchen is a powder room/laundry room combination. Upstairs , the four bedrooms are arranged around a central hallway, each with dormers for added sunlight and spaciousness. The house and mechanicals are in good condition, with a 25-year roof installed in 2014. An air conditioning system installed in the second floor keeps the whole house comfortable year round. There is a detached, oversized stone garage. Awaiting your family's personal touches and updates, this home is a one-of-a-kind Main Line treasure. (Architects: Edward P. Hazelhurst -formerly of the Frank Furness firm - and Samuel Huckel, Jr.)
