Introducing 316 S. Main Street, an impeccably maintained and upgraded home, offering original charm and modern upgrades! Built circa 1920 to serve as a summer home for Philadelphians, it was also owned by family practitioner, Doc Anders and is rich with local history, original hardwood floors, molding, 5 panel wood doors with brass knobs and so much more! Visitors enter the living room via the side entrance with porch and bench. Notice stunning quarter sawn original parquet floors, a dramatic coffered ceiling with recessed lighting, Arts & Crafts style Tiffany lighting, massive fireplace with brick surround and hearth, a built-in bookcase and corner bench with storage. A cased opening leads into the expansive light filled dining room running the entire width of the home. Just imagine how elegant holiday meals will be! There is a fireplace with wood mantle, brick surround and hearth flanked by built-in cabinetry, a built-in corner china cabinet and striking brass chandelier. Continue from the dining room into the addition built in 2012 which added an open living area to include a chef's dream kitchen, informal dining and gathering space. It is finished with radiant heat ceramic tile floors, recessed lighting, Anderson casement windows and sliding doors leading to a 12x12 deck and flagstone patio with Jacuzzi. The seating area has a ceiling fan and 42" flat screen TV, while the informal dining has a Tiffany Arts & Crafts chandelier. The chef's kitchen is truly inspirational and artistically executed! There is so much attention to detail from the custom mahogany window to the inlaid Moravian tile ("The Forest Beckons") in the backsplash! Enjoy custom Kraftmaid maple cabinetry with granite counters, brushed nickel hardware, glass front doors, a plate rack, built-in pantry, open shelving with beadboard accents, a recycling center, soft close drawers, and KichenAid mixer stand with outlet. The stainless farmhouse sink has a garbage disposal with gooseneck faucet. The chef will appreciate all Bosch stainless steel appliances to include a 5-burner gas cooktop with vent, double convection wall overs, dishwasher, and French door refrigerator with ice/water dispenser. Other features - peninsula breakfast bar, under cabinet and recessed lighting (2 zones), Tiffany style pendants, broom closet and tile backsplash. There is even more to see on the main floor! On the other side of the living room, the front porch was enclosed, creating a foyer flanked by a sitting room and office. The sitting room has French doors to the living room and tile floors extending into the foyer. The office has marble and hardwood floors, rich paneling, built-in bookcase and an amazing custom-made Murphy bed! A French door from the office accesses a tiled hallway containing a closet and luxurious full bath with custom frameless glass enclosed ceramic tile stall shower with a niche, Pulse LaniKai Shower System, wainscoting, vanity with vessel sink and tiled floor.

The spacious primary bedroom has 2 closets and a brick fireplace. The 4th bedroom is perfect as a craft room and has access to a roof deck created over the entire kitchen addition. Continue to the 3rd level, but stop to admire the beautiful period banister, newel post and unique windows.
