Nestled on a family-friendly cul-de-sac in desirable Bala Cynwyd. This impressive, state-of-the-art 5 BR 4.5 bath contemporary home is a treasure with generous living/entertaining space, and an expanded maintenance-free deck overlooking the park-like grounds. Substantial renovations resulted in thoughtful layout changes which opened up the flow, along with luxurious finishes and state-of-the-art systems optimizing elegance and comfort. The meticulously-designed 6,446-SF interior presents an exquisitely bright, airy ambiance with 9-foot architectural ceilings, solid black walnut hardwood floors, solid walnut doors, Lutron lighting and many other refinements. Major improvements also include a new granite floor powder room with a rare solid Hawaiian wood vanity off the striking 2-story entrance hall and living room; a totally reconfigured, critically-acclaimed, gourmet kitchen with custom cabinetry, professional appliances (2 Fisher-Paykel dishwashers, Sub-Zero 36" refrigerator and 36" freezer, Wolf ranges with dual ovens, a Gaggenau fully piped steam oven with high-capacity plumbing) and walk-in pantry; a newly-laid-out master BR suite with a sitting room, large his/hers closet, new spa bath with custom cabinetry, limestone walls and recirculating hot water and radiant heated onyx floors; and a finished 1700 SF day-lit walk-out basement with a rec room, exercise room, bedroom suite and radiant heat ceilings to eliminate drafts. New additional systems include a whole-house stereo system with individual Elan room controllers and B&W speakers; whole-house wiring for cable and internet; efficient HVAC with hydrostatic heat, built-in humidifiers and electrostatic dust collection; re-wired all-new expanded electric plus two additional new panels with numerous dedicated circuits; a security system with motion detectors and wireless backup connection to monitoring service; plus underground sprinkler system. Other highlights are an enormous hot water capacity; a full woodworking shop with German cabinets; and a natural gas barbecue. The best part is, the house and these recent renovations, have been meticulously cared for by the current owners (a quiet couple) and show like they are new! The property overlooks 3 newly-resurfaced public tennis courts in a peaceful setting. A fabulous location in the Lower Merion Township but only 15 minutes from Center City Philadelphia.
