Wayne, PA 19087

What do they say about real estate? Location, Location, Location!!! This deceptively large mid-century split-level home is located on a cul-de-sac (off another cul-de-sac!) with absolutely no through traffic. There are only 6 houses on this street. Its setting on the lot makes one feel like you are in the woods out in the country, yet it is so conveniently located to absolutely everything! There are four levels of living space within the walls of this thoughtfully updated home. The extended driveway curves down past the house to a large parking area with access to the 2-car attached garage. A large, attractive garden shed was placed at the end of the drive to provide for ample storage space of the gardening equipment, bikes & other items so that the vehicles can actually be parked in the garage! Around the rear of the home are situated a series of patios with a small, shallow pond with a waterfall tucked into the corner, just outside the breakfast room. A beautiful compass rose is inlaid in the patio. It is extremely private with no neighbors in your sight line. Approach the front door with a beautiful, custom stained glass window, and enter into the main floor. The entry foyer has a large coat closet. The main living room has a wood burning fireplace & overlooks the well-manicured front yard with many flowering shrubs & trees. The dining room has French doors to the rear patio, chair rails & decorative crown molding. The kitchen has an abundance of cabinetry on all four walls along with an island for additional storage/prep space. A breakfast room was added to the rear of the home with a vaulted ceiling, skylights & another French door to the rear patio along with a long breakfast bar facing the kitchen. Facing South, this addition provides beautiful, four-season views of the outdoors and an abundance of natural light throughout the entire day. Up a half-flight of stairs is a small landing area that the current owners use for their piano. At the landing, there is also a large linen closet and access to an extensive storage area over the main living area below. The two guest bedrooms overlook the rear yard and share a hall bathroom. The primary bedroom has a wall of closets, windows on two sides & a renovated en-suite bathroom with a large glass enclosed shower. There is so much more living (and storage!) space in the two lower levels. From the kitchen, descend a half-flight of stairs where you will find access to the 2-car garage, the spacious family room with the 2nd fireplace (propane) & direct access to the driveway. But wait, there is even more to explore. There is no need to use one of the bedrooms for your home office, as there is a dedicated office for the work from home crowd! Down another half-flight of stairs is yet another great living space, a finished rec-room that has tons of storage in multiple closets with a powder room & laundry room. The mechanicals & additional storage are tucked into the far rear corner of this lowest level which also includes closed off space for exercise equipment and a workshop. All of the windows were recently replaced in 2018 and a new central A/C system was installed in 2019. Solid wood paneled doors & hardwood flooring run throughout most of the home. The property is so convenient to everything. For food shopping, within 1-2 miles are the Wayne Farmers Market, Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, Wegmans, ACME or DiBruno Bros. Less than a mile away is the Strafford station on the Paoli/Thorndale SEPTA regional rail line. Every imaginable retail store that you can think of is less than 3 miles away at the various stores in King of Prussia. All of the independent retail stores and restaurants along Lancaster Avenue in Wayne are just a 5 minute drive as is access to the PA Turnpike, Route 202 & I-76 for commuting in any direction. Within 2 miles are also the Chester Valley and Radnor rail trails. Perfectly located, yet tucked away in your own wooded oasis, come explore 616 Arlyn Circle!
