1400 Beaumont Dr, Gladwyne, PA 19035

This wonderful stone Colonial on a quiet street with no through traffic exudes beauty in every aspect. Breathtaking grounds by Terren Landscaping are graced by mature plantings as well as dogwoods & apple trees. The surroundings make it easy to forget how conveniently close you are to everything, including historic Gladwyne Village in walking distance and entrances to the Bridlewild Trails nearby - offering 50 miles of paths! Gladwyne Elementary School, the Philadelphia Country Club & all major routes are also close by. On your large, level, and private property with in-ground irrigation & extensive landscape lighting is a recently-renovated heated pool & paver stone patio, plus an oversized heated 2-car garage, above which sits a bright, airy 780 SF guest suite with a vaulted ceiling, kitchenette & full bath, great for multiple uses. The covered fieldstone breezeway to the garage and guest house was built with a foundation that allows for its enclosure if desired. This charming home was meticulously renovated in 2003 by architect Rene Hoffman who reinvented the kitchen, family room, mudroom, laundry room, master suite & garage/ guest house. The exquisite gourmet kitchen by Peterson Kitchen Design is a magnet room for all, with Wood Mode cabinetry, Caesarstone quartz countertops, Deruta tile backsplash, stainless appliances, huge center island & glass doors to the gorgeous rear grounds. Adjoining is a breakfast room, butler's pantry & built-in workstation. Fresh exterior paint in 2017 & many interior rooms painted in 2018 are among the more recent improvements. Other highlights include 3-zone HVAC, propane gas heat w/tank monitor (1500-gallon capacity), whole-house generator, security system & cedar roof w/ transferable warrantee. A gracious entry foyer introduces the random-width pegged hardwood floors and elegant millwork that flow throughout the main level. Enjoy the coziness of two fireplaces when entertaining or relaxing with loved ones; the first is found in the living room with light from 3 exposures and a glass door to the covered rear flagstone terrace, and the second in the vaulted family room, which has lovely built-ins, large arched windows & a wet bar. A dining room, paneled study & powder room complete the main level. Three 2nd-floor bedrooms are generous in size, notably the light-filled master suite with a dressing room, two walk-in closets & an inviting subway-tiled bath. The day-lit basement w/French drain provides tons of storage.
