About this property

Welcome to 1249 School Lane, a stunning custom contemporary Cape Cod, nestled on nearly an acre of exquisitely landscaped grounds in Rydal. With its meticulously updated and upgraded living space replete with custom appointments and an additional 442 square-foot screened-in patio, this lovely home is a retreat you will be proud to call “home.” It is also a true entertainer’s paradise that exudes luxury, refinement, and quality craftsmanship throughout. The sun-drenched open floor plan with 9 foot ceilings is thoughtfully designed with comfort, convenience, and sophistication in mind. Some of the details are beautiful 6” wood plank floors, stylish ceiling fans, solid wood core doors, stunning luminaires, and recessed lighting.

One of the ensuite baths is equipped with a walk-in shower. (Please note that the entire first floor is accessible WITHOUT STEPS, including the front door entrance. Additionally, the screened patio and second patio can be accessed without steps.) At the heart of the home is a chef’s dream kitchen featuring marble countertops, custom cabinetry, a large center island with a walnut top, Sub-Zero stainless refrigerator, Wolf stainless double wall ovens and induction cooktops (2), and two Bosch dishwashers-all perfect for everyday meals and hosting on a grand scale.

The laundry, also located on the main floor, is equipped with dual stackable washers and dryers. Upstairs, the delightful primary bedroom suite, with its vaulted ceiling, provides a peaceful retreat with spa-like touches. It features a lounge/sitting area at the top of the steps (currently used as home gym), a spacious light-filled bedroom, a beautifully appointed bathroom, and very generous closet space. California Closet systems were installed within the past year to enhance their utility.
