Welcome to 120 Turner Road, a luxurious, modern, ranch home in the highly coveted Wallingford-Swarthmore Schools. This is an ideal location, walking distance to the train to Center City, minutes to I-95, arterial highways, Swarthmore College, and Media Town with Dining Under the Stars. As you approach, you’ll arrive through a stately stone entryway, adorned with built-in lanterns. The grounds of this home are stunning, have won awards and have been recognized and featured in local publications. Tasteful, mature plantings and bucolic green space abound, complimenting various hardscaped areas and a delightfully private, bluestone patio. Sitting outside on a summer evening, you’ll enjoy your own private oasis, akin to an alcove in Longwood Gardens. Park in your pristine two-car garage or in the oversized driveway and follow the bluestone path to a welcoming covered entryway. Inside you will find the whole home has been painted with neutral colors, and is accentuated by the rich tones of the engineered bamboo floors. To your right is an oversized formal living room, highlighted by a modern, gas fireplace with built-in wall sconces. The large casement windows allow this room to be bathed in sunlight, while the surrounding hedges provide natural privacy. Continue to an oversized sized formal dining room, complete with extensive custom millwork. Proceed toward the open concept kitchen, you’ll notice a second living room with a wood burning fireplace, and built-in bookshelves. From this room there is a door that affords access to a gorgeous bluestone patio, providing a fantastic area for entertaining guests. Adjacent is the gourmet, chef’s kitchen--with all new custom cabinetry, two large pantries, quartzite countertops, Thermador appliances including a double wall oven and built-in Viking microwave, entertaining will be a pleasure! Other features of this kitchen include a Thermador range, oversized range hood, “bookshelf” pot rack, retractable spice racks, second prep sink, and ergonomic, engineered cork floors to ensure proper support while standing. Off the kitchen is a morning room addition with cathedral-ceilings, double ceiling fans, and a built-in buffet/hutch with lighting. There are sliding doors to the first patio, as well as another smaller side patio with stone steps to the backyard. On the opposite side of the house, you will find a powder room, and hall leading to the bedrooms, linen closets, laundry room, and full hall bath. The laundry room has a workstation with a countertop sink, and full-size stackable washer and dryer. Both hall bedrooms are generously sized, where one, accessed by French doors is currently being used as an office, also with a built-in workstation and storage. The modern, hall bath has striking, designer wallpaper, a modern wall-mount vanity, and tub shower. At the end of the hall is the spacious master bedroom, also with vaulted ceilings and exposed beams. The master bathroom includes a rimless, glass enclosed shower, jetted soaking tub, built-in teal cabinetry, and walk-in closet. Lastly, the full basement is ready to be finished, potentially doubling your livable square footage! Other features include a new HVAC (2022), Rinnai tankless water heater (2022), central vacuum with recoiling hoses (including the garage), new Eagle windows with retractable screens, new eco-friendly insulation, new ADT security system, a whole house generator that activates within 10 seconds of an outage, 200-amp electric, closet organization throughout, a second washer/dryer, and a garden storage shed.
