Welcome to this updated, full brick and slate roof Center Hall Colonial in desirable, walkable Bala Cynwyd, Gracious, well-proportioned rooms, a floorplan ideal for entertaining, meticulously cared for and visually stunning, this home is a complete package. 5-bedrooms and 4.5-bathrooms of style and grace offer a timeless elegance combined with modern amenities. As you step through the front door into a welcoming foyer, you'll be greeted by gleaming hardwood floors that flow seamlessly throughout the first floor. A large and spacious living room is bathed in natural light and features a beautiful fireplace with elegant mantle as the focal point. Adjacent find a sunroom with beamed ceilings, walls of windows and French doors to the backyard. This sunroom, unlike many, is extra wide, offering plenty of space for an office, TV room or library. On the opposite side of the foyer find a generously sized dining room with built in corner cabinet, and separated from the kitchen by an impressive series of custom french pocket doors, offering multiple options from the most casual to formal dinner party gatherings. The kitchen was rebuilt from the studs by the current owner, and includes an abundance of counter and cabinet space. It features double wall ovens, a panel refrigerator, custom ventilation hood, a convenient pot filler above a Wolf 6 burner cooktop, and a large central island with additional seating. A stylish tile backsplash adds a touch of sophistication, and completes a design aesthetic that ensures the kitchen truly is the heart of the home. Off the side of the kitchen, near the door to the patio, find a powder room and mudroom with built ins, perfect utility. Upstairs on the second level, a luxurious primary suite awaits, complete with hardwood floors and a serene sitting area. The suite features a generous walk-in closet and an en-suite bathroom with a double vanity and a large walk-in shower, all redone by the current owner. The primary suite also includes direct access to a private deck, ideal for unwinding with a book or enjoying your morning coffee. Two additional well-appointed bedrooms and a full bathroom are located on this level. The third floor offers three more spacious bedrooms (one currently used for storage), another full bathroom and laundry room. Downstairs, a finished basement including an additional full bathroom, half kitchen and direct exterior access provides a fantastic bonus space, perfect for a home gym, recreation room, additional living area and more. Outside, enjoy a peaceful blue slate back patio, ideal for outdoor dining and relaxation, overlooking a flat backyard lawn, landscaping and more. A two-car detached garage fits perfectly with the setting and mirrors the brick and slate roof finish of the main house. Conveniently located in the heart of Bala Cynwyd, Lower Merion Township, this home is a short walk to award winning Cynwyd Elementary and Bala Middle Schools. Also within walking distance to the Cynwyd SEPTA train station, the Cynwyd Recreation Trail, houses of worship, shopping and more. All this, and still within 15 minutes of Center City Philadelphia. Don’t miss this elegant Bala Cynwyd home…schedule a showing today!
