Property Description
Bursting with potential, this gracious, brick Cape Cod is nestled on a leafy
corner lot in Villanova’s coveted Parkes Run neighborhood with priceless views of
Ardrossan Farm. For motivated, visionary buyers, this is an incredible opportunity
to put your stamp on a premier Main Line address with historic roots. Built around
a sprawling stone terrace and landscaped grounds, this home prioritizes scenic
views and outdoor access at every turn. From the front driveway with stone
retaining wall, double glass entry doors open to a sunny brick foyer that offers
unobstructed sightlines to the expansive back patio and greenspace. A short side
hallway leads to a bright and inviting family room with beamed ceiling, recessed
lighting, custom built-ins and brick accent wall with gas fireplace. The family
room connects to a cheery kitchen with plentiful cabinetry, center island and large
architectural window framing the rolling hills of Ardrossan Farm. From the
kitchen, an arched opening reveals a glorious, sky-lit sunroom with vaulted ceiling,
oversize window seat with stone bench and a wall of glass sliders leading to the
home’s rear grounds and terrace. The sunroom also offers convenient access to the
first-floor powder room and oversize two-car garage. Off the other side of the
kitchen sits a lovely, light-filled dining room and a large living room beyond with
wood-burning fireplace and yet another wall of glass sliders. On the opposite wing
of the main floor, you’ll find a spacious corner bedroom with ensuite full bath, plus
the primary suite with ensuite full bath, ample closet space and direct access to the
rear stone patio. Upstairs features three additional bedrooms—all with enviable
views of the home’s spectacular landscape—plus a split hallway bath. Outside, an
elegant stone terrace runs the entire width of the home, with multiple areas for
lounging and dining al fresco. Stone steps lead to an in-ground pool surrounded by
over an acre of private, fenced greenspace. At the rear of the property, a gurgling
stream runs beneath one of the home’s most distinctive features—a historic Spring
House circa 1860. The two-story structure was converted into a charming guest
cottage by the current owners, who went to great lengths to incorporate modern
features and amenities while preserving its historic character and charm. The
cottage boasts a full kitchen with island seating, a cozy living room with wood-
burning fireplace, a covered back porch, two bedrooms and a full hallway bath.
While the Spring House features its own entrance and parking, it also connects to
the main house via a covered brick and stone walkway. Bringing the very best of
town and country living to one enviable address, this distinctive property is just
minutes from downtown Wayne and other popular Main Line destinations. Zoned
for award-winning Radnor Township School District and close to several premier
private schools too! Please note this property is being sold as-is.
