Description
Welcome to this classic, stone, impeccably maintained, 5-bedroom, center hall colonial in sought-after North-side Bryn Mawr. The property is located in a special enclave of homes with no through traffic, making it a wonderful, safe, walkabout neighborhood for owners and their children. Too, the neighborhood is walkable to all the amenities Bryn Mawr offers- public transportation, shopping, restaurants, Ludington Library, etc. The center hall foyer features hardwood floors that open to a beautiful formal dining room to the right and a light-filled formal living room with a fireplace to the left. There are attractive windows with stunning views of manicured gardens, mature plantings, and trees from every room. The gourmet kitchen features newer appliances, an expansive island, and a large eat-in area with office space overlooking the back terrace. The kitchen area was designed with special lighting that enables each of the three areas -food preparation, island, and eating area to be separately illuminated as entities unto themselves, thus eliminating the need for walls and creating great open space for this multi-function area. Adjacent to the kitchen is the family room with built-ins, large windows, and French doors leading to the outside terraced area, which is great for entertaining. Just off the kitchen is an all glass garden area with a cathedral ceiling, doors to the outside, brick floor with a drain for flower/plant watering overflows. This area offers space for a mudroom with a large coat closet. The first floor has a full bath, a main-floor laundry room, and access to the two-car garage. On the second floor, the main bedroom is a suite with a private full bathroom, a walk-in closet, and pocket doors connecting to the adjacent nursery/bedroom, office, or owner's retreat room. Three additional bedrooms on the 2nd floor share a full hallway bathroom. The lower level has a finished recreation room, mechanicals w workbench and plenty of storage. Overall, this is an enchanting property with a slightly raised, level lot, mature perimeter hedgerows and trees for privacy, a generous flagstone patio with gardens, all professionally landscaped. This exceptional location on Colebrook Lane, with its vast and quiet leafy streets and beautiful homes, is within easy distance to SEPTA (R5), Suburban Square, some of Pennsylvania's best public and private schools, and fabulous shopping. It's a must-see!
