Combining timeless French-inspired architecture with thoughtful updates, this residence - comprising a total of approx 2500 sq ft - offers an elegant and stately presence on the one-way section of New Gulph Road. Beyond a walled and gated front entry lies a motor court framed by arched vines that soften the faade and a trellis-like horizontal beam supported by classic columns, adding symmetry and architectural interest. Tucked into a quiet corner of the property, a stone terrace with a fire pit provides an intimate outdoor retreat. A flagstone walkway with stone steps leads to the double-door entrance.
Inside, a bright foyer opens to a fireside living room and adjoining dining area. A gourmet kitchen, appointed with stainless steel Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, Fisher & Paykel dishwasher drawers, and a granite countertop with seating, connects to the dining room, which in turn opens to the sunroom. French doors bring in abundant natural light and open to the rear terrace.
The second floor has three well-proportioned bedrooms served by a hall bath, with one currently used as a home office.
Privately set on the third floor, the primary suite provides a peaceful retreat beneath a vaulted ceiling and includes a sitting area, abundant natural light, and an updated bath with a frameless glass shower, porcelain tile flooring with a marble-look finish, a quartz double vanity, and a soaking tub.
The lower level includes a comfortable family room with custom built-ins that offers relaxed everyday living and connects directly to the laundry/mudroom. This well-organized area features extensive cabinetry, a utility sink, a large quartz folding counter, and inside access to the attached garage.
On the lowest level, a dedicated recreation room accommodates a full-size pool table and a media area. Bright overhead lighting, built-in storage, and durable finishes make it a practical extension of the home’s living and entertaining spaces.
Rear grounds provide a quiet, private setting with a flagstone terrace, paver walkways, mature landscaping, and a tidy storage shed—an inviting extension of the home for outdoor dining or relaxation. Conveniently located near the Haverford train station, Suburban Square, the Haverford and Baldwin Schools, and Merion Cricket Club, this home combines thoughtful updates with exceptional neighborhood access.
