The unique millwork, custom accents, and versatile floor plan make this home an ideal retreat for those seeking comfort and style. Visitors are greeted by a picturesque exterior featuring lush landscaping, specimen plantings, and a classic stone exterior. Stroll through the Entrance Foyer past exposed stone walls to discover a bright and inviting living space boasting an abundance of natural light and spacious room sizes. The flexible floor plan can be utilized in a variety of ways. The large Living Room / Dining Room sets the tone for relaxation with its cozy gas fireplace, built-ins, large windows, and ample seating area… perfect for gracious entertaining. The nearby Family Room / Breakfast Room is ideal for casual relaxation with family and friends. It features built-in bookshelves and sliding glass doors to a serene stone patio. The well-organized Kitchen features extensive counter space, floor-to-ceiling storage, and a wall of windows. Stainless steel appliances include a refrigerator and a 4-burner gas range with exhaust hood. The first floor Powder Room is located off the Entrance Foyer. The bedroom level is just 6 steps up from the main level. The Primary Bedroom suite has a walk-in closet and private en suite Bath with large vanity and tub/shower combo. Bedroom 2 features an extra-large closet plus a linen closet. The Den / Office (formerly the 3rd Bedroom) has a wall of built-in bookshelves and a door to the rear balcony. The Hall Bathroom features designer wallpaper, newer vanity, and tub/shower combo. A closet conceals the convenient 2nd floor Washer/Dryer. A walk-up Attic provides additional storage space and potential (if the roof was raised) for future expansion. The entire interior was recently painted in neutral tones, and the hardwood floors are in excellent condition. The lower level has an Office/Hobby Room with two windows and a storage closet, a hallway with a large coat closet and doors to a rear patio, and a door to the 2-car Garage. Plus there is a surprise on the far side of the garage… a bonus room (ideal for exercise or a workshop) with two windows and a half bath with a toilet and a utility sink. The utility room is also found on this level. Outside, the expansive .53 acre beautifully landscaped, very private grounds provide a perfect setting for outdoor entertaining and relaxation. Enjoy morning coffee from the secluded sitting area in the front yard, barbecues on the side patio off the Kitchen, or gardening in the rear yard amid serene surroundings. Vintage elements of an old Estate are visible in the unique courtyard in the front yard - which was originally the foundation for a greenhouse. Another historic accent is the arbor arch across Winsor Lane which gives this quiet, cul-de-sac street a sense of seclusion. Located in the highly sought-after Haverford area of Lower Merion Township, this home is just moments away from top-rated schools, parks, shopping, dining, and entertainment options. Nearby train stations make getting to Center City a breeze. With its sturdy construction and prime location, 217 Winsor Lane offers a rare opportunity to experience the best of suburban living.
