Discover your private haven at 922 Merion Square Road, an enchanting expanded Contemporary Cape nestled on a full acre in the heart of Gladwyne. Just a short stroll to the village center, playground, tennis courts, restaurants, markets and transportation, this beautifully maintained home offers a rare blend of classic charm and modern comfort, wrapped in a setting of quiet beauty and mature gardens.
Inside, the home opens with a gracious sense of light and warmth. A formal living room with a wood-burning fireplace sets the tone, while just beyond, the open kitchen provides a comfortable and well-equipped workspace with granite countertops, custom wood cabinetry, and ample storage. Opening directly to the brick-floored dining room, where floor-to-ceiling windows frame serene views of the private grounds -- a space that captures the spirit of the home with its blend of natural materials, garden views, and timeless appeal.
Steps away the home unfolds into a stunning great room with soaring ceilings, richly stained wood details, and an entire wall of custom built-in shelving. Flooded with southern light and anchored by its sense of scale, this room is equally suited for large gatherings or quiet evenings by the fire.
The first-floor primary suite is tucked just off the living spaces and offers a true sense of retreat. High volume ceilings and abundant natural light define the space, while an updated bath with soaking tub, glass-enclosed shower, and a spacious walk-in closet enhance both luxury and function. Flanking the entrance to the suite are two custom bookshelves that conceal a laundry area on one side and a temperature-controlled wine cellar on the other, complete with a handsome live-edge countertop and bespoke display storage.
Also on the main level are a second bedroom, an additional full bath and interior access to a two-car garage. Upstairs are two more comfortable bedrooms and a neutral hall bath. Above the garage and accessed from a separate staircase, a generous bonus space offers great flexibility -- ideal as a playroom, gym, studio or as currently purposed as a quiet home office.
Throughout the home, gleaming hardwood floors, central air conditioning, and nearly all new windows offer peace of mind and everyday ease. A full-house generator and an unfinished basement with plentiful storage and a second washer and dryer add further practicality.
Outside, the property unfolds into a lush, secluded garden setting. Stone paths, shade trees, and carefully tended plantings create a peaceful outdoor world -- perfect for alfresco dining, weekend gardening, or simply enjoying the sounds of nature in your own private corner of Gladwyne.
922 Merion Square Road is a rare opportunity to enjoy both seclusion and walkability, history and thoughtful renovation -- a home that offers ease, character, and room to live beautifully.
