Turnkey and meticulously cared for, this classic Bala Cynwyd twin pairs Main Line charm with extensive, high-value improvements. Step inside to an inviting living room with a corner fireplace, a spacious dining room, and an updated kitchen with generous cabinet storage and counter space. Upstairs, the bathroom features a newer vanity and fresh shower tile, while two of the three bedrooms include large custom closets. Downstairs, the basement was completely renovated in 2024 to include a new full bathroom with walk-in shower, and built-in shelving beneath the stairs. While currently used as a gym/play area, direct outdoor access offers additional possibilities. The sellers did much of the heavy lifting for this house, including installing a new roof on both the house and garage (2024), and full basement waterproofing with a French drain, sump pump, and water pump backup (2024), plus new cellar doors (2025). Additional systems upgrades include replacing a substantial portion of the cast iron plumbing with PEX (2024 and 2026) and updated electrical conduit and several breakers (2024). The rear yard provides plenty of privacy thanks to a full-length wood fence (2025), new cellar doors, and rebuilt exterior stairs (2025). All this in top-ranked Lower Merion School District, just minutes from SEPTA regional rail, the Cynwyd Heritage Trail, and Center City. Owner is agent.
Bala Cynwyd, located between City Avenue and the Schuylkill River, is a residential and commercial Bala Cynwyd neighborhood with a hillside setting and a riverfront edge. The neighborhood reads as classic Main Line: stone colonials, mid-century apartment towers, and office campuses along City Avenue. The character concentrates around City Avenue at Bala Avenue, where storefront plazas, cafés, and everyday services meet steady commuter traffic. Community pillars include the historic Bala Theatre, the Barnes Foundation’s Saint-Gaudens sculptures at the former Merion campus, and the Cynwyd Heritage Trail’s trailhead. River views and the Manayunk Bridge frame walks and bike rides. SEPTA’s Cynwyd Line station adds a rail link in a compact footprint.
