The 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath storybook family dream home provides a stately yet charming English feel with its exquisite stone exterior, distinctive architectural elements, and dramatic Tudor-style touches throughout.

For intimate gatherings, the formal dining room just off the kitchen offers a welcoming space to host with a sparkling chandelier and ornate ceiling medallion. In the formal living room, a marble fireplace and picture windows set an inviting tone, with glass doors to the outdoor oasis. A cozy den with built-ins is a perfect place to relax. On the second level, all of the bedrooms come oversized with ample closets and well-appointed baths featuring a thoughtful mix of modern upgrades and period accents. An unfinished vaulted attic provides endless possibilities for storage and additional use of space. The generous day-lit basement also affords options for finishing and houses a laundry room with large utility sink. Outside, you'll enjoy a tranquil secluded feel with an inviting stone patio, mature flowerbeds, and enchanting pathways for taking in some fresh air. A long drive leads to a built-in 2-car rear garage for your vehicles. Ideally located on a quiet block in a sought-after Main Line neighborhood, this property is truly a rare find!
