Situated on an expansive (.80 acre) corner lot within a highly sought-after neighborhood, this property offers a picturesque setting that is sure to captivate. Let's commence with its enviable location. Conveniently located at 401 Clairemont, this home enjoys close proximity to the newly constructed Black Rock middle school, Villanova University, and the Villanova train station. The neighborhood's serene streets, characterized by gentle undulations and minimal traffic, are ideal for runners, joggers, and dog walkers. Furthermore, the Lower Merion School District  bus stop is conveniently positioned directly across the street, while prestigious private schools such as Shipley, Baldwin, Agnes Irwin, Academy of Notre Dame, West Hill School, and Archbishop Carroll are all within easy reach. Now, let's delve into the home itself, which boasts an array of impressive features. Upon entry, you'll be greeted by the distinctive design elements of the 1950s, showcased in the spacious living room adorned with vaulted ceilings, expansive picture windows, and a cozy fireplace. The recently renovated kitchen is a culinary haven, featuring cedar hardwood floors, elegant shaker cabinetry, granite countertops, a central island with seating, contemporary backsplash, built-in wine rack, modern lighting and fixtures, high-end appliances, pot filler, a warming drawer, and a well-appointed desk/work area. Adjacent to the kitchen, the dining area seamlessly transitions to a large patio, blurring the lines between indoor and outdoor living spaces. Furthermore, the home boasts a professional office suite with a separate entrance that has been approved by the Lower Merion Zoning commission to function as a low traffic, "minor home occupation". (This approval will be transferred to the new owner). This space could also be used as a fifth bedroom or in-law suite. The lower level presents a comfortable family room with access to a lower patio, a dedicated laundry room, a full bathroom, and a versatile multipurpose room, originally part of the garage but converted to living space for added square footage. Upstairs, you'll discover four generously sized bedrooms, including a primary bedroom with three closets and an ensuite bathroom featuring dual vanity and a spacious shower with multiple shower heads. An additional bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms, while the common hallway offers two linen and storage closets, further enhancing the home's functionality. A highlight of the property is the fully enclosed, heated indoor pool, which is accessible from an indoor passageway or outside deck. The pool area, approximately 28½ x 56½ in size, serves as an oasis for leisurely swims and entertaining guests. Additionally, a sizable deck adjacent to the pool provides ample space for outdoor gatherings. Notable updates to the property include brand-new patios and front walkway, as well as recently redesigned landscaping. With an unfinished basement offering ample storage space, this home offers an unparalleled living experience.
