Welcome to a piece of history at this timeless carriage home. Originally constructed in 1917, this unique residence exudes character with fascinating origins as a carriage house with attached stables, artfully converted into a dwelling that seamlessly marries historic charm with modern comfort. This residence has seen additions over the years, carefully integrating modern amenities while preserving the original character that makes it truly special. The property is a testament to architectural ingenuity and timeless design, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere, boasting 5 bedrooms and 4.5 baths, nestled in the sought-after Wayne community within the award-winning Radnor School District. Step inside to discover a thoughtfully designed interior with a state-of-the-art Kitchen, providing the perfect blend of style and functionality (2022), comprising elegant Wellsford cerused rift sawn white oak cabinets, honed quartzite counters, top of the line Wolf double ovens (steam) and induction cooktop, Bosch Benchmark Line Refrigerator/freezer and Dishwasher, and Sharp microwave/air fryer drawer. A spacious breakfast area overlooks the perennial side garden making the entire space a great entertainment area overlooking the enclosed inner courtyard, which becomes an extension of the living space, seamlessly blending indoors with outdoors. An ideal space for entertaining, reflecting, watching over young kids or pets! Whether you seek a quiet moment of serenity, a secure space for toddlers/pets, quiet reading or a grand social gathering, this original space with lush plantings and brick pavers will captivate and enhance your overall living experience. The Great room was a later addition with cathedral and beamed ceilings, skylights and patio doors with balconies. One set leads out to the enclosed courtyard. It features a giant wood fireplace and hardwood floors. On the opposite side of the kitchen are the converted stables now serving as a den with beamed ceilings and exposed brick. An original barn door leads from there to the dining room with beamed ceilings and pellet stove fireplace. For convenience, there is a first-floor bedroom, with double closets and full bathroom. This could serve as an office or an in-law suite, with a door to the courtyard offering modern convenience and historic ambiance. Upstairs on two levels are 4 additional bedrooms, all with hardwood floors and wood blinds. The elegant primary bedroom has a cathedral ceiling, skylights, french doors (with balcony) and a walk-in closet. The bathroom was totally replaced (2023) with porcelain tile, dual sinks and oversized frameless shower. 2 more large bedrooms at this level, with double closets, have access to the hall bath with a shower over soaking tub. The remaining bedroom sits above the kitchen, oversized witha bathroom suite including a large soaking tub, separate tiled shower, dual sinks, towel warmer and walk-in closet. There are 2 finished lower-level areas both with external access. One offers the laundry utility space along with finished open area and a crawl space for storage. The other houses some mechanicals and more storage. The house sits back from the road on a .97ac lot. Outside are several open spaces with mature plantings in a picturesque setting, including two fenced areas, ideal for pets or kids' play area. The entire roof and 11 skylights were replaced in 2019. A detached 2-car garage complements the property, with Wifi enabled door openers (2021) providing convenience and additional storage. Ample space for parking additional cars too.
