Welcome Home to Heather Knoll, a beautifully maintained, 3-story, 19th-century center-hall colonial on 2 carefully landscaped acres in the heart of prestigious Edgmont Township. The oldest part of this 4 bedroom, 3 ½ bath home, with original hard-wood flooring, dates to 1804. Later additions added the kitchen, breakfast room, family room and 3-car garage. From the center-hall you can enter the elegant formal living room with a fireplace and built-in shelves, as well as the large formal dining room with plenty of space for entertaining a large group. The bright kitchen, with white cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and wood and granite countertops, is open to a breakfast room that features a working fireplace, and is bound to be a central meeting place in the house. The hallway from the dining room to the kitchen provides access to a walk-in pantry and a back staircase to the second floor. A large wet bar/butler’s pantry adds convenience and storage space to the kitchen. The oversized family room, with a wood-paneled cathedral ceiling, centers on an impressive stone wall with a working fireplace; a skylight and 8 tall windows bring an abundance of light into the room. There are two bedrooms and one bathroom on the second floor. The larger of the rooms has access to a small loft, perfect for a study or dressing room; the back staircase leads to this loft area. The smaller bedroom on the second floor, with a bricked-up fireplace, is a perfect guest room. There are two bedrooms and 2 bathrooms on the third floor. The master bedroom suite includes a dressing area, the bedroom with a cathedral ceiling and ceiling fans, and a large 4-piece, master bathroom with double sinks, jacuzzi tub, and separate water closet. The fourth bedroom has a cedar closet. From the breakfast room, step onto the recently-designed, spacious patio that leads to the pool area. The fenced-in pool area includes a combination pool/hot tub, a charming gazebo, and a pool house. The pool house has a bar with roll-up shutter for entertaining, a sitting area, and a full bathroom with shower; it is heated. The yard, with its many well-placed trees and plantings, offers a variety of areas to enjoy, including a vegetable garden and a fire-pit area. This lovely property is conveniently located to numerous parks, shops, restaurants, and cultural venues; it is within easy driving distance to Media, Philadelphia, and the International Airport.
