Offering far more space than meets the eye, this expanded 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath ranch in sought-after College Park combines a surprisingly open interior with beautifully curated outdoor living. A dramatic vaulted foyer with an oversized skylight creates a bright and welcoming first impression, leading into the home’s expansive main living spaces. Gleaming hardwood floors run throughout much of the first floor, while the spacious living and dining areas flow easily together and connect to a fireside...Offering far more space than meets the eye, this expanded 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath ranch in sought-after College Park combines a surprisingly open interior with beautifully curated outdoor living. A dramatic vaulted foyer with an oversized skylight creates a bright and welcoming first impression, leading into the home’s expansive main living spaces. Gleaming hardwood floors run throughout much of the first floor, while the spacious living and dining areas flow easily together and connect to a fireside family room, creating a layout that is both inviting and versatile for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen is filled with natural light and features all-new stainless steel appliances, tiled flooring, a vaulted ceiling, and a sunny eat-in area with access to both the driveway and the rear deck. Tucked away from the main living spaces, the bedroom wing includes four nicely sized bedrooms, each with custom closet organization. The hall bath has been refreshed with new exhaust fan, toilet and updated fixtures, while the private primary suite offers added comfort with a newer Mitsubishi high-efficiency split system for heating and air conditioning, an en-suite bath with stall shower, and an oversized walk-in closet with direct access to the rear deck. The finished lower level adds valuable flexibility, offering additional living space with wall-to-wall carpeting, a half bath, workshop area, and laundry room with new front-loading washer and dryer. Significant improvements include a roof installed in 2022, all-new stainless steel kitchen appliances, new washer & dryer, and updates to both full baths including new toilets and exhaust vents. Outside, the property is every bit as special as the interior. The gated front yard is a true gardener’s dream, while the fully fenced backyard offers a peaceful and private retreat with a large deck that was recently repainted, two retractable awnings, and an array of beautiful plantings that create the perfect setting for relaxing, outdoor dining, or entertaining. Quietly set within one of Lower Merion Township’s most popular communities, yet just minutes from trains, major roadways, Main Line destinations, and Center City Philadelphia. This home offers a wonderful combination of space, character, updates, and location, all within the Lower Merion School District.
