Property Description
Be sure to watch the full motion video. It is not often such a special home comes on the market! This picturesque 3 bedroom, 3 bath stone home is situated in a bucolic Wynnewood neighborhood, boasts 4,000 square feet of living space, offers a flat and magical .45 acre lot with spectacular plantings and large shed, has magnificent architectural details such as a turret with antique weathervane, provides spectacular views through multiple picture windows and features a passive solar greenhouse! From the meandering flagstone walkway, enter the home and you will instantly fall in love. To the left you will find 1 of 2 cozy offices/dens or what could be a 4th bedroom. To the right find a sunlit dining room with built-in china cabinets and 2 walls of windows. Enter the kitchen through the French doors in the dining room and you will find a nicely updated galley kitchen with a breath-taking picture window overlooking the most wonderful (and perhaps the oldest) dogwood tree in the main line! Outside the kitchen you will find a cozy breakfast room in the turret with a vertical picture window that allows you to enjoy the rear yard while enjoying your meal. Also open from the kitchen is the large living room with a delightful gas fireplace. Off the living room is the full sized laundry room with 1 year old washer/dryer and access to the driveway. Completing the original house is a full first floor bathroom off the living room. Out back find a large brick patio, perfect for enjoying the flat rear yard. Last but not least is the large addition designed by a well-known solar architect to allow for passive solar warming in the cooler months. With this addition, the current owners added a great room with combination wood/coal stove, a solar greenhouse and another 1st floor office/den which could also be a 1st floor bedroom. In both the great room and back office/den you will find radiant heat in the floors and a tranquil presence throughout- assisted in part by the relaxing sounds of the fountain! Enjoy many solar benefits, including the way the addition is oriented (due S for solar heat gain in winter while the sun is overhead during the summer), the electric thermal shades that convert the R3 double pane windows in the great room to R11, the thick shed roof for added insulation as well as the slate backing covered by the trombe (high density concrete) wall in the greenhouse that absorbs the sun during the day and releases the heat at night. This solar greenhouse is not just delightful it is also very functional and energy efficient. In the winter, the greenhouse never gets below the mid 30s at night. During the day, the greenhouse warms to the mid 90?s with just the heat of the sun. Simply open the greenhouse doors and allow the heat to radiate throughout with zero energy use! Upstairs, you will find 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths. To the left, find a bedroom with en suite bath, a closet and large storage area. To the right, find the second bedroom and a larger 3rd bedroom (used as the primary bedroom) with large dressing room offering multiple closets and space for additional furniture. These two bedrooms share the 2nd full bath on this floor. The basement is accessible from a hatch outside the front door. In addition to storage, the basement houses the 1 year old, state of the art gas furnace with all new piping and valves, 1 year old hot water heater and other mechanicals. While on a street tucked away in a beautiful neighborhood, this location is also incredibly convenient. It is just a little over a mile walk to Suburban Square shopping center featuring Trader Joes, Apple, etc. plus restaurants as well as LIFETIME Fitness and it is also walking distance to multiple places of worship. Plus, this location is also just a little over a mile to 2 different SEPTA stations for a short ride to center city, one of these stations (Ardmore) takes you non-stop to NYC. Top it all off with award-winning Lower Merion Schools!
