Looking for main floor living in a suburb very close to the city? This home has 3 spacious bedrooms and two full baths all on the main floor! Enter the home into the foyer and immediately notice the beautiful original hardwood floors and the abundance of light from all the large windows. From the foyer on the left is the main bedroom and bath, nicely separated from the rest of the home. To the right off the foyer is the very large living room, next is the dining room, then onto the adjacent kitchen. We often imagine what kind of a fabulous entertaining kitchen you can create without the wall between the dining room and kitchen. If you prefer to keep the dining room, this one has a stunning formal mirror covering the end wall and an exquisite chandelier. Down the hall from the foyer is access to two of the bedrooms, one full bath and the the family room with its stone fireplace, large windows and double doors leading to a lovely stone patio overlooking the huge fenced back yard. Upstairs is the fourth large bedroom or make it a great space to work from home, big enough to create a space for two desk setups. Also on that level is a walk in attic for plenty of storage. The basement was finished years ago so clearly needs updating and has nice potential. The water is turned off in the half bath in the basement so it is not functioning, seller does not know why and will not repair. This lovely home is home is made of beautiful solid stone, with stone walls, patios and walkways. The large level rear yard is fully fenced. The home is in need of some updating, has fabulous potential and is priced accordingly.The location is hard to beat, just outside the city in Lower Merion Township, which has a top rated school district, and it is 5 minutes from the Belmont exit of the expressway and a quick trip to center city Philadelphia.
