Welcome to an exceptional luxury residence in the sought after community of Garnet Valley Woods, located within the award winning Garnet Valley School District. Thoughtfully maintained and beautifully updated, this home blends timeless character with modern sophistication to offer comfort, elegance, and lasting peace of mind.
A welcoming front portico leads into a grand two story foyer featuring a vaulted ceiling, curved open staircase, and refined architectural details. Nine foot ceilings throughout enhance the home’s open, airy atmosphere. On either side of the foyer, the updated living room and formal dining room—each finished with crown molding and chair rail—create an ideal setting for both everyday living and elegant entertaining.
Just beyond, the expansive family room stands out with its raised hearth brick fireplace and dramatic Palladian arched windows that fill the space with natural light. An open balcony above overlooks both the family room and foyer, adding architectural interest and a sense of connection across levels.
The newly remodeled gourmet kitchen is designed for both function and style, featuring an oversized granite island, refreshed cabinetry, and a striking Italian inspired Fulgar Milano oven. There is ample room for casual dining, along with a spacious pantry for larger appliances. The kitchen flows seamlessly into a private conservatory—perfect for quiet mornings, relaxed evenings, or intimate gatherings. A convenient nook just inside the mudroom adds everyday practicality when entering from the garage.
Upstairs, the home offers four generous, light filled bedrooms and three full baths. The freshly painted and remodeled primary suite serves as a private retreat, complete with a walk in closet and a separate dressing/loggia area ideal for unwinding. Three additional bedrooms and two full baths, one of which is contained within a bedroom, are thoughtfully arranged down the hall, providing comfort and privacy for family and guests. A rear staircase adds charm and convenience.
Significant updates provide added peace of mind, including newer Hardie board siding, gutters, and a recently installed HVAC system—making the exterior virtually maintenance free.
Set on a private lot backing to a scenic community trail, the property features extensive custom hardscaping that enhances both curb appeal and outdoor enjoyment. Step outside and unwind on the expansive, maintenance-free rear deck, ideally situated on the main level and overlooking a breathtaking open expanse of grass and field. Enjoy fresh air and an active lifestyle with access to the community’s scenic walking and biking loop. The outdoor living continues with a beautifully designed, decorator-inspired hardscaped lower patio-perfect for relaxing, barbecuing, hosting yard games, or simply escaping the warmth of the summer sun. This home truly offers exceptional indoor and outdoor living! The location offers exceptional convenience-close to top rated Garnet Valley schools, shopping, dining, athletic fields, and community amenities, with SEPTA rail access to Center City Philadelphia just five miles away.
