Property Description
Welcome to 1914 Firethorn Lane, an impressive 4 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom colonial situated on a quiet cul-de-sac on a beautifully landscaped lot (.94 acre) on the Main Line in highly sought-after Villanova. As soon as you approach the home, you will find the uniquely designed circular addition with stunning architectural details by BJC Knowles Architects and Design. Exposed oak beams, gorgeous refinished Red Oak and Brazilian Cherry flooring, Patina Copper Stand-Up seam roof, Copper gutters with custom leader heads and downspouts, and glass block windows are just a few custom features this wonderful home has to offer. Step inside to the foyer entrance to find marble tile in-lay flooring. To the left is the expansive formal dining room with herringbone teak wood flooring decorated with walnut crown molding and floor molding details with plenty of seating for entertaining and holiday gatherings. Next is the spacious living room with oak floors, oak molding, bay windows and French doors to the amazing deck overlooking the serene lot creating an ideal landscape for privacy; the perfect place to enjoy a cup of coffee to start the day or for a BBQ and enjoying the outdoors! Back inside, the focal point of the living room is the stone wood burning fireplace and mantel with light glass shelf built-ins on each side. Continuing on, next is the circular kitchen addition offering Wood-Mode cabinetry, three sinks, two new disposals, two ovens, large 9 island and 14 windows with views of the Lily garden! There is also a lovely fireplace here and a second door out to the deck; a true extension to your home! The main level is complete with half stairs down to the conveniently located powder room by the foyer. Walk up the half staircase to the 2nd level to find double doors to the impressive master ensuite with a vaulted ceiling and 2 walk-in custom closets with built-in lighting. The room is wired for sound and includes a wooden hidden TV lift cabinet, TV, and remote. The en-suite master bath offers a large skylight, dual vanity, granite countertops, floor to ceiling tile, pearl jacuzzi, heated towel rack, and separate walk-in glass enclosed shower with jets and seat! Carrying on to the third level you will find three additional bedrooms with oak floors all equipped with closets (one with an awesome cedar closet and access to a floored attic in the other), full hall bath with Villeroy-Boch floor to ceiling tile, 2 sinks and shower/tub combination. Down the hall you will notice natural light coming through the glass block windows. Here is a conveniently located upstairs laundry room tucked behind a pocket door with a new LG Washtower. In the circular addition, is the truly incredible family room! From the exposed oak beams, beautiful fireplace, 16 windows, equipped with monster cable surround sound acoustics, (great for an entertainment room/music room); this room is a welcomed bonus to this amazing home. More living space can be found in the finished walkout basement with sump pump and French drain and utilities tucked behind in storage. All this, plus, 4-car garage (2 attached, 2 heated-detached), fresh paint (2021), irrigation system, four outside surveillance cameras, new roof with copper gutters and downspouts in 2018, new casement windows throughout, hot water recirculation on timer, and three zone heating/cooling system. This home is located in the award winning Lower Merion School District! Just minutes away, you will find a wide variety of dining and shopping. These are just a few of the many pleasures of living in the heart of the Main Line, a walkable community with old fashioned traditions and modern sophisticated attractions. Philadelphia International Airport and sporting arenas are all easily accessible via public transportation or with easy access to major highways such as 76 and 476. Do not miss your chance to own this lovingly cared-for and well maintained home in a highly desirable location!
