This 6 bedroom, 3 ½ bath home has been meticulously maintained and upgraded by the current owners to blend its original authentic charm with the needs of today’s lifestyle. It’s rear facing southern exposure streams bright sunlight throughout the day. Shortly after it was purchased the owners went to work updating the entire house and enclosing a porch, which increased the usable living space to approximately 4,500 sq ft. Improvements were also made to this home’s systems. Two zone high velocity central air conditioning was installed along with radiant floor heating in the kitchen, mudroom and half bath. New baseboard radiators were installed in several rooms from the first floor to the third. Thirty-three new higher efficiency windows and three exterior doors were installed to increase heating and cooling efficiency. These improvements were made concurrent with complete renovations of the island kitchen, breakfast room, office, family room, mudroom powder room and two bathrooms. These renovations provided the opportunity to add convenience items like a second-floor laundry, linen closet, new walk-in closets, built-in shelving and a finished attic. System upgrades continued with a conversion from oil to natural gas heat in 2013, and the primary bath was completely renovated just this past year.
The home’s exterior was not overlooked during this process. Extensive hardscaping including new walkways, driveway with cobblestone edging, privacy fence, new front and rear porches and rear patio with a sitting wall were added. Power lines and CATV cables were converted from overhead wires to underground cables. Landscaping was upgraded with perennials and flowering ornamental trees to complement the mature trees on the property.
This home is a prime example of how a classic Main Line property can be updated without sacrificing its original character.
