Property Description
This Walter Durham-designed residence in the private Pembroke Estates enclave is an absolute gem, with a floor plan and scale that is timeless and so livable, with details that are elegant yet not overdone. Add inviting, sun-filled interiors, an all-new main suite bath and dressing room and many other recent updates, and 418 Gatcombe is a top choice among Main Line homes now on the market. Its broad, front veranda is welcoming and large enough to accommodate al fresco entertaining. Inside, the foyer is designed to showcase perhaps a stunning piece of wall art instead of the staircase, which is located to the left. A step-down formal living room features fantastic natural light, a fireplace, lovely millwork and built-ins and access to a patio that overlooks the pool. At the other side of the foyer, the formal dining room is similarly finished and has a big bay window. A study with fireplace and a wealth of built-ins is a hideaway between the formal rooms. Hardwood floors run throughout the first floor. A beautifully designed sun-filled kitchen with island is loaded with extras: two stainless steel farmhouse sinks, pantry storage, Viking and Kitchen-Aid appliances, a butlers pantry, tile backsplash and views of the step-down family room. This space, with a vaulted ceiling, skylights and a fireplace, is perfect for casual living. There is also garage and parking area access from here, easy for everyday comings-and-goings. Private quarters upstairs provide privacy for the main suite, where an all-new bath with soaking tub, oversized walk-in shower, double vanity and dressing room with built-ins and organizers awaits. The sleeping quarters are yet another, sizable light-filled space. Hardwood floors run throughout the second floor. Three additional en suite bedrooms are all good-sized spaces; two have new baths with tub/showers and one has a stall shower. There is also a laundry room and a rear staircase to the kitchen area. As a bonus, the walkout lower level is finished to serve as a full suite with a living area with fireplace and access to the rear yard, a full bath (great for those using the pool) and a bedroom. This level also includes a wine room with space to add a chiller and a second laundry room as well as utility space. The pool area is privately situated from the house and integrates organically into the setting. Enjoy a mix of manageable formal gardens, rolling lawn and mature trees at this well-located, tastefully updated Main Line classic that is but a few minutes drive to the best private schools, shops, restaurants, the Bryn Mawr Film Institute, and the Saturday Farmer's Market. In addition to mere moments to local trains into CC and New York.
