Welcome to 420 Sycamore Ave, a charming 5 bedroom, 3.5 bath Dutch Colonial tucked on a picturesque street in the heart of Lower Merion, walkable to the train in Merion Station as well as Narberth shops and restaurants. Character abounds in this impeccably maintained 3 story home, cherished and thoughtfully updated by its current owners of almost 40 years. Enter through the bright foyer, inviting you into the home and leading to a spacious formal living room with stone fireplace, crown molding and two sets of French doors opening into the renovated family room/sun room with custom built-in shelving. The first floor has hardwood floors throughout, and a highlight is the dining room with wainscoting, crown molding and large windows with colonial revival trim. At the heart of the home is the gourmet kitchen, which has been designed with every day living in mind, featuring granite countertops, wood cabinetry and a large center island with seating. Off the kitchen is a powder room as well as a butler's pantry/wet bar, providing direct access to a cedar deck perfect for al fresco dining, family gatherings or summer grilling. A flat rear yard provides ample space for a play area, pets, gardening and entertaining. Ascend the beautiful staircase, past the large palladium window where you'll find a tastefully updated hall bathroom and 3 bedrooms, including the primary bedroom with attached ensuite bathroom and office area/potential walk-in closet. Completing the 2nd floor is a sunny laundry room. Upstairs on the 3rd floor are 2 additional bedrooms (or flexible spaces for guest, office or playroom) and a third updated full bathroom. The large unfinished basement with built-in shelves is perfect for storage, as well as the 1 car detached garage. This gracious residence blends timeless architectural character with thoughtful updates, generous living spaces and a tree-lined walkable neighborhood with sidewalks. It offers the perfect blend of suburban tranquility and urban accessibility on top of the award-winning Lower Merion school district and all that Philadelphia's Main Line has to offer!
