Set on 5 acres in the estate section of Villanova, this thoughtfully updated property offers a blend of comfort, space, and natural beauty. Beautifully renovated in 2014 with attention to detail, the home is designed to support both everyday living and casual entertaining. The main residence includes a first floor primary suite, along with three additional bedrooms and two and a half baths. A spacious studio apartment located above the attached two-car garage offers flexible options for guests, work-from-home needs, or additional living space for an au pair or in-laws. The kitchen and dining areas feature vaulted ceilings with antique wood beams and flow openly into the living room, creating a welcoming environment filled with natural light and generous proportions. Outdoors, the landscape includes multiple terraces overlooking ponds and waterfalls providing a peaceful backdrop for dining, gathering, or enjoying quiet moments. The property is home to perennial and herb gardens and has been reforested with a variety of native trees and shrubs, offering visual interest throughout the seasons. A walking trail weaves through meadows, wooded areas, and over small streams, making it easy to enjoy time in nature without leaving home. Set slightly apart from the main residence, a saltwater pool and spa are surrounded by plantings and a stone wall, creating a private area for warm-weather enjoyment. This property offers a unique opportunity to enjoy a quiet, natural setting while remaining close to the amenities of the Main Line and Philadelphia. Contact us to arrange a private tour.
