On the Market: The Most Expensive House for Sale in Delaware County Right Now
Of course, it's in Radnor Township. Did you really have to ask?
As expensive houses go, this house for sale in Wayne is really cheap. A veritable bargain, in fact, given everything you’ll find in it.
This 95-year-old Colonial wears its age beautifully thanks to attentive owners who have kept it polished and up to date over the years.
One thing you should notice immediately as you peruse these photos is how bright and airy this classic house feels. Large windows and updated lighting contribute to that glow.
So does its updated plan. You’ll find both spaces for formal entertaining and a combination of rooms perfect for family time and more casual affairs.
Off to one side of the foyer are the formal living room and dining room. The former has a gas fireplace, one of three in this house, and the latter has built-in china cabinets flanking its huge window that looks out on the backyard.
Next to the dining room is a chef’s kitchen with everything you need to produce grand meals, including double ovens and a wine bar. The island bar comfortably seats four to five people.
This kitchen is part of a trio of open rooms that together make a great casual entertaining space. Next to the kitchen is an informal dining room, and both of these rooms connect to a sunken family room with gas fireplace and built-in bookshelves.
You’ll also find built-ins in the adjacent den.
The upstairs master suite has plenty of space for you and yours and all your clothes. It has a tray ceiling with indirect lighting and fan, three closets (two of them walk-in) and a spa-like bath with separate soaking tub and shower.
One of the other four bedrooms has a gas fireplace, and on the third floor, you’ll find a home office and bonus room that can be used as a gym, as this one is now.
Downstairs is a large space that can serve as a rec room or media room. An adjacent room is currently being used as a music practice room; this space could also serve as an au pair or in-law suite with its own full bath.
A bluestone patio and spacious landscaped backyard r0und out this handsome package.
And not only is it ready for your modern lifestyle, it’s also conveniently located yet private. Its secluded private lane is just around the corner from the Blue Route interchange with Lancaster Avenue. Radnor Corporate Center and Radnor High School are also close at hand, as are a Giant supermarket and a selection of big-box stores.
