Welcome to this charming, classic stone home nestled in the serene enclave of St. Davids, where timeless architecture meets lush, storybook landscaping. With four bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms, this residence is a rare blend of character, comfort, and thoughtful design. A winding stone pathway invites you in, surrounded by mature landscaping that rivals the gardens at Chanticleer—ivy-covered walls, colorful hydrangeas, and curated gardens set a picturesque tone from the moment you arrive.
Step inside to find a warm and inviting living room to the right, featuring rich hardwood floors, recessed lighting, a bay window, and a wood-burning fireplace with classic brick surround and a white mantle. Just beyond lies a cozy home office, complete with wood-paneled walls, built-ins, and stone flooring, plus access to a tranquil side porch.
The tiled eat-in kitchen is as stylish as it is functional, boasting a center Carrara marble island, counter seating, Wolf/Sub Zero stainless steel appliances, Stoltzfus cabinetry, and striking Julie Neill Alberto open cage lantern pendants. A charming circular breakfast table sits just off the kitchen, creating the perfect spot for casual meals. The kitchen flows effortlessly into a light-filled family room with cathedral wood ceilings, crown molding, and large windows overlooking the lush backyard. Throughout the home, all lighting fixtures and sconces are antique, adding to its refined character.
The formal dining room exudes elegance with wood floors, crown molding, a sparkling chandelier, and a bay window. On this floor, you’ll also find a beautifully appointed powder room, complete with a Celestine Basin from the London Basin Company and Sibylla wallpaper imported from London, as well as a mudroom designed for dirty boots and dog gear, accented by Clarke & Clarke wallpaper and anchored by a large armoire in place of cubbies. The main floor laundry room also features the same designer wallpaper, bringing a sense of cohesion and charm to these practical spaces.
Step out back to a stunning stone patio with a charming half-wall, surrounded by flourishing gardens—a true outdoor retreat for relaxing or entertaining. The backyard is a private haven, fully enclosed by a wooden fence, and features a 42-inch Pompeii-style brick pizza oven, a fountained lily pond with goldfish and frogs, and lush landscaping that creates a sense of tranquility and escape.
Upstairs, to the left, you'll find a Jack-and-Jill bedroom suite. The first bedroom features soaring ceilings and a ceiling fan, while the adjoining second bedroom offers an entire wall of built-ins with a convenient desk at the center—perfect for work or study. Down the hall is a third bedroom, currently set up as a home office with a daybed, highlighted by wall paneling and a ceiling fan. At the end of the hall, the spacious primary suite impresses with high ceilings, an exposed stone accent wall, and French doors that open to a private deck overlooking the backyard, complete with a circular staircase for easy outdoor access. The en-suite bathroom includes marble countertops, a soaking tub, an oversized glass-enclosed stall shower, and a towel heater, while the nearby walk-in closet offers generous built-ins for organized storage.
Other highlights include a cedar roof, indoor access to the two-car garage, and an unfinished basement accessed via the kitchen—perfect for storage or future expansion.
Located just a short walk to downtown Wayne, Fenimore Park (ideal for fishing and winter ice skating), and the scenic grounds of Eastern University with its peaceful walking trails and ponds, this home offers the tranquility of a luxury English village with the convenience of award-winning public schools and easy access to amenities. An absolute gem in one of the Main Line’s most coveted neighborhoods.
