This beautiful Stone Colonial Manor Home is located on 1.4 prime acres in the prestigious estate neighborhood of Merion Golf Manor just steps from Merion Golf Course. The current owners enlisted the help of renowned Main Line Architect; Scott McIntyre of McIntyre Capron & Associates to develop plans for a complete home renovation, gutting it to the framing and foundation in order to convert the more conservative existing traditional layout to open concept living. In 2017, the home won a Synergy Award for best renovation by the Home Builders Association of Delaware/Chester, Berks, and Montgomery Counties. Several additions to the home were also made adding significant square footage, which includes a great room, master bathroom, master bedroom closets, mudroom, and conversion of a two to three-car garage with living space above. The house has hardwood floors throughout and is filled with beautiful soft light coming from large bay windows at the front of the house that pours into the formal sitting room and dining room, which flank the entrance. The front entrance leads to a morning room straight through to French doors opening to a flagstone patio ideal for lounging or entertaining guests. The morning room is open to both the great room and gourmet kitchen. The kitchen has plenty of cabinet space, Carrera marble countertops, a farmhouse sink, and is equipped with all new appliances in 2017 including a 6-burner Wolf Range with grille, Sub Zero Fridge/Freezer, two Sub Zero beverage drawers in the massive Carrera marble island and a Miele dishwasher. The butler?s pantry has custom cabinets ideal for wine and glassware storage, soapstone countertops, a wine fridge, and a Scotsman ice maker. The great room has an open beam coffered ceiling, a stone gas fireplace and large French doors leading to the patio. Stealth Speakers also hide behind drywall providing unmatched cinematic surround sound that is operated via Control 4 as is lighting throughout the kitchen, morning room, and great room including additional speakers for easy listening. A large office with picture window and French doors, a powder room and mudroom with custom cabinets complete the first floor.
