Property Description
Welcome to 434 W. Allens Lane, a gorgeous colonial stone estate, lovingly maintained by the present owners and available for the first time in almost 35 years. Enter through the glass vestibule into the grand dual entry foyer with walnut colored hardwood floors and panel & crown molding. The stately Living Room features a wood-burning fireplace with wooden mantle & marble surround flanked by French doors leading to a magnificent enclosed sun porch with wood burning fireplace. An arched doorway and oversized hall lead to the formal Dining Room featuring a wood burning fireplace with wood paneled walls and a rustic beamed ceiling that perfectly balances the formality of the space. The updated Kitchen boasts granite countertops, center island for additional seating, and white cabinetry with crown molding & glass doors for displaying treasured items. The architectural interest of this home continues through the exquisitely detailed arched doorways to the built-in shelves in the den/library. A perfect place to read, unwind, or simply enjoy some peace and quiet by the fire. Take the elevator or head up the impressive u-shaped staircase with a bright, sunlit landing to find 5 Bedrooms, each with old-world charm and details that have stood the test of time. There is a fireplace in the sitting room off the Primary Suite as well as in the office. 3 Full Baths and a Half Bath complete this level. Another flight up leads to 3 Bedrooms, one with a fireplace, and 2 Full Baths. This home is situated on beautiful grounds with mature landscaping and has a detached garage with potential to create an incredible outdoor space to entertain in the warmer months. Located in the heart of W. Mt. Airy, and close to local favorites such as Allens Lane Art Center, Weaver’s Way Co-Op, and Walnut Lane Golf Club. Chestnut Hill, the trails of the Wissahickon, and Fairmount Park, in addition to commuter trains and/or a short drive to Center City, this home offers the best of both worlds. You do not want to let this opportunity pass you by!
