Description
Custom built home designed by architect Peter Batchelor, the home...Situated on a premier corner lot the South Wayne Historic District, this impressive French Colonial offers a rare combination of scale, light, and convenience, just a short walk to the shops and restaurants of downtown Wayne. High ceilings and the pristine feel of new construction with open rooms and big windows is a rare find with an attached garage and completely finished lower level in South Wayne. This home is also elevator ready.
Custom built home designed by architect Peter Batchelor, the home is thoughtfully executed throughout, with a sense of proportion and flow that is immediately apparent. Dormer rooflines, a copper entry canopy, slate steps, and mature landscaping framed by stone walls establish a classic Main Line presence.
Inside, the home opens with ease. A gracious foyer leads to well-scaled living and dining rooms, a private office with French doors, and a central family room defined by its 20-foot ceilings and natural light. The kitchen and breakfast room connect seamlessly, creating a living environment that is both open and well anchored—comfortable for everyday living and equally suited to entertaining.
Upstairs, four bedrooms are arranged with intention, including a primary suite with two walk-in closets and a well-appointed bath. A second ensuite bedroom, two additional bedrooms with a Jack & Jill bath, and a conveniently located laundry room complete the level.
The recently completed lower level (2024) is notably bright, with multiple windows and a true garden-level feel. Designed to function as a fully integrated extension of the home, it includes a bedroom, full bath, kitchen, living space, private office, and gym—well suited for extended stays, guests, or flexible day-to-day use. Direct access to the attached, climate-controlled garage adds further convenience.
Above, the home offers an unexpected degree of additional space. A full walk-up third floor—already plumbed for a bath—provides substantial square footage with ceiling height and proportions suitable for future finishing. Above this, a full-height attic offers further flexibility. Together, these upper levels present a meaningful opportunity to expand the home’s living space over time, if desired.
Outdoor spaces are equally considered, with bluestone patios, mature plantings, and a private setting complemented by a fountain and hot tub. The Radnor Trail is just steps away, offering immediate access to miles of walking and cycling.
Recent improvements, including updated HVAC, roof, windows, and systems, support a move-in-ready experience and long-term ease of ownership.
Located within the Radnor Township School District and just 0.6 miles to the train with service to Philadelphia and New York, this is a home that balances convenience, scale, and flexibility in one of the Main Line’s most established neighborhoods.
A property of uncommon breadth, offering both immediate livability and the ability to evolve over time with finishing the top level. Plans attached. .
