Property Description
If you are seeking an outstanding home in the Wallingford-Swarthmore school district that combines charm, location, and a magical natural setting, this home will exceed your expectations. With winding trails, meandering streams, soaring trees, glorious landscaping, and incredible views from both inside and out, this thoughtfully imagined residence was custom-designed by a local architect and landscape architect for their family to enjoy exceptional living in a private, peaceful setting immersed with nature.
With a modern design, the open floor plan of this home perfectly blends functionality and convenience allowing for seamless entertaining and exceptional everyday living. As you step inside, the gorgeous wood flooring, cathedral ceilings with skylights, and stunning fireplace will both wow and warmly greet you. In addition to the oversized wood-burning fireplace, the Living Room features eye-catching floor-to-ceiling shelving and amazing views of the grounds from the wall of windows. The spacious Dining Room has fabulous built-in storage (found throughout the home!) and sliding glass doors to the expansive multi-level Deck, the perfect place to enjoy al-fresco dining with breathtaking views. The Kitchen has ample cabinetry and updated stainless appliances including Viking range, and opens to the Great Room and cozy Eating Nook with custom seating and plenty of sunshine from the two-story bay window and deck access. There is a lovely flagstone Patio off the Kitchen featuring beautiful stone walls, open spaces, and glorious plantings. The first floor is complete with a Home Office, Sunroom, storage closets, Mudroom, and perfectly placed Powder Room.
Atop the turned, open staircase on the second floor you will find an attractive Primary Suite that boasts skylights, a large bathroom with a fabulous pebbled-tiled shower, and expansive walk-in closet with bonus space featuring a Juliette balcony with sensational views. There are two additional spacious Bedrooms on this level, linen closet, large hall bath, and convenient second-floor Laundry. On the third floor is the 4th Bedroom with a large closet and storage and incredible views of the rear and side yard. There is a finished lower level with a separate entrance, offering endless possibilities as a Home office, Playroom or Gym, and lastly, there is detached two-car Garage.
The grounds of this home are noteworthy. For almost 50 years, the owners dedicated countless hours to creating an outdoor oasis that combines a park-like setting with whimsical, storybook magic. This labor of love includes countless walking paths which are hand-lined with hundreds of natural stones, custom firepits, and welcoming seating areas along the way to take a break, have meaningful conversations, and enjoy the sea of daffodils in the spring, the lush foliage of summer and changing leaves in the fall. There is a wooden look-out platform where endless adventures await, as well as a trickling stream with an ever-flowing fountain, and many bridges to cross.
This beautiful residence is located steps from the Community Art Center, a vital pillar in the community that offers a myriad of art classes dedicated to providing a nurturing environment for artists at all levels, and Pendle Hill, a tranquil Quaker retreat on 24 beautiful acres with walking trails. It is also convenient to the Wallingford train station for easy commuting to Philadelphia, Wallingford/Swarthmore schools, the town of Media with many restaurants and shopping options, and the storybook town of Swarthmore. With too many amazing details throughout to mention, this exceptional listing offers endless enjoyment both indoors and out.
