Nestled on 2.6 picturesque acres in the prestigious Dovecote Lane neighborhood, a private cul-de-sac of just 10 homes, this custom-built 2000 home blends timeless elegance with modern comfort. A grand circular driveway leads to a stunning entryway, where a front-to-back foyer with an elegant staircase sets the stage. The formal living room features a cozy gas fireplace, while the dining room showcases intricate woodwork. A well designed butler’s pantry provides seamless access to the kitchen and back staircase. The kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, generous counter space, an island with seating for four, and a built-in desk area. The sunlit breakfast room overlooks the serene backyard and opens to a flagstone patio with a built-in gas grill—perfect for outdoor entertaining. The inviting family room boasts a coffered ceiling and a wood-burning fireplace, while the first-floor office with custom built-ins features a third gas fireplace. Additional conveniences include an oversized formal powder room, a mudroom with a secondary powder room, and a three-car garage. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a sitting room, his-and-hers walk-in closets, and a spa-like bath with dual vanities, a walk-in shower, and a soaking tub. Two bedrooms have private en-suite baths, while the remaining two share a hall bath. A dedicated laundry room completes this level. The back staircase leads to a third-floor attic, offering potential for additional living space, while the over 2,500 sq ft unfinished basement provides room for ample storage and future expansion. Meticulously maintained with an updated HVAC system, newer roof, and in-ground sprinkler system, this home is just minutes from the borough of Malvern, with boutique shops, restaurants, Amtrak and R-5 train service, and easy access to major highways and Philadelphia International Airport.
