Welcome to 1408 Evans Road, a beautifully updated and thoughtfully expanded ranch home set on nearly an acre in desirable Lower Gwynedd Township. Offering 3 bedrooms with the potential for a 4th bedroom with its own full en-suite bath, and nearly 2,800 square feet of living space, this home blends mid-century modern design with Scandinavian-inspired simplicity, creating a warm, light-filled environment with clean lines and timeless appeal. An attached over-sized two-car garage adds everyday convenience. Step inside to a warm and inviting layout where original hardwood floors flow throughout much of the home, reflecting the home’s mid-century roots. The spacious family room showcases hardwood flooring, recessed lighting, and a striking contemporary wood façade surrounding the fireplace—currently electric, but easily convertible back to wood-burning—bringing a modern yet organic focal point to the space. Just beyond, a bright breakfast nook with recessed lighting connects to the beautifully updated kitchen, featuring shaker-style cabinetry, Corian countertops with under-mount sink, stainless appliances including a new refrigerator and electric range, skylight, and a large walk-in pantry with hidden “secret” storage. A charming breakfast bar window highlights the original butcher block, adding warmth and a subtle nod to Scandinavian craftsmanship and natural materials. The kitchen opens seamlessly to a large screened-in porch with new ceiling fans and outdoor carpeting—perfect for relaxing or entertaining—with convenient access to the basement. Just beyond, a spacious deck with new TREX decking and elegant railings overlooks the fully fenced rear yard. A thoughtfully designed kitchen window service area with a marble bar enhances the home’s indoor-outdoor flow, while a private rear gate opens directly to Gwynedd Mercy’s scenic fields and walking paths—an exceptional lifestyle feature rarely found. Back inside, the dining room offers recessed lighting and classic hardwood flooring, flowing into a versatile front living space with a stunning stone fireplace, oversized bay window, and open connection to a flexible room currently used as a music room—ideal for a home office or additional sitting area. The home’s clean lines, natural light, and functional flow reflect both mid-century design principles and the understated elegance of Scandinavian interiors. The bedroom wing is thoughtfully arranged for both privacy and flexibility. The primary suite features hardwood floors, recessed lighting, two spacious closets, and an en-suite bath with stall shower. Two additional bedrooms are connected by a beautifully updated Jack-and-Jill bathroom with subway tile and penny tile flooring. A fourth flexible bedroom (currently used as a playroom) includes built-ins, hardwood floors, and access to its own full bath—perfect for guests, a private suite, or multigenerational living. Additional highlights include a full walk-out basement with laundry, water softener system, two sump pumps with battery backups, and updated mechanicals including a new Carrier HVAC system (2025) and water heater (2021). The well was redrilled in 2018 (155 ft), and all plumbing has been replaced. Two electrical panels support both the original home and the family room addition. New garage roof April 2026! From the charming front approach with sophisticated landscaping and a flagstone walkway, to the thoughtful details like hidden storage, natural materials, and seamless indoor-outdoor living, this home offers a rare combination of space, functionality, and design-driven character—all within the highly regarded Wissahickon School District.

Just unpack. That's all you have to do in this beautiful, sunny, open ranch style home with almost an acre of lush lawn. Completely fenced by handsome split rail, one of the best features of this home isn't even inside! Just open the gate and you are on the grounds of Gwynedd Mercy College with acres of wonderful walking. If that's not enough nature, the Gwynedd section of the Wissahickon Trail is close by for 20 miles of biking and hiking. This house has been remodeled top to bottom. There have been so many remodels, additions and upgrades, we have a separate list! A brand new kitchen was added all the way to the hardwood flooring chosen to match the original oak. Beautiful Mission style cabinetry, fantastic skylight with its own vent, a large pantry with "surprise" storage opens to the breakfast room. The family room is impressive. The same new hardwood flooring was added as well as vaulted ceilings to open up the space. A talented stone mason matched the original stone to take it all the way to the ceiling once it was lifted. The family room also has a separate entrance to the sweet side porch. A rear porch runs most of the length of the house and has louvered windows. This "covered porch" opens to the deck which overlooks the fabulous backyard. Back inside, the Great Room is just that. Hardwood floors, another stone fireplace, picture window, built in shelving in one flexible, large open space. A separate but completely open room could easily be a dining room or the perfect place for the TV with a few overstuffed chairs. So often living and formal dining rooms are wasted space. Not so with this open and sunny great room. Set off by themselves for complete peace and quiet are the bedrooms. The master suite is wonderfully large and has a crisp new bath. Two additional bedrooms share a remodeled Jack and Jill bath. But that's not all. There is an additional cozy room set off by itself and with its own brand new full bath. Currently used as an office, this room is also appropriate for a library or even an extra bedroom. Inside and out, this home is a gem. New low-E windows, new baths, new water heater, new whole house water filter and softener, new chimney sheath and tiles, new siding, new garage doors, new sump pump and battery back-up, new smoke alarms tied to the security system, extra outlets installed, new recessed lighting and the renovations go on and on.
