Welcome to the sought-after Ellis Preserve Community of carriage houses in Newtown Square. With distinctive, high-end finishes throughout, nine-foot ceilings, and a coveted, first-floor bedroom, this sunny home in like-new condition is just minutes from major routes, shopping, and restaurants. Enjoy the low-maintenance lifestyle and numerous amenities of Ellis Preserve while being close to everything! Enter the front door into the grand, two-story foyer with its elegant, turned staircase to the second level. The hall opens into a lovely dining room with wood floor, tray ceiling, and large windows for sunny exposure. The dining room leads into the open, airy kitchen and great room. With cathedral ceilings and a fireplace, as well as sliders to the outside deck, this space has beautiful flow for preparing meals and entertaining. The kitchen has a sleek, center island with ample seating and granite countertop, sink and pendant lighting, chef-quality appliances, tile backsplash, and plenty of cabinets. There is hardwood flooring throughout these main areas, as well as extra lighting. The first-floor main bedroom has cathedral ceilings and a beautiful window, as well as two separate walk-in closets. The en-suite bath has a dual vanity with elegant countertops and pretty lighting, as well as a tile shower with built-in seat. There is also a linen closet. Also off the foyer are a laundry room and powder room, as well as access to the two-car attached garage. The curved, oak floor staircase with wrought-iron railing leads to the second level, where a landing overlooks the foyer and dining room. One of the two additional bedrooms features a cathedral ceiling, and each of the rooms has closets and large windows with shutters. Generous space on the hardwood-floor landing currently is used as an exercise area, but could also serve as a home office, yoga or art studio. The second level bath has a dual vanity, tub/shower combination, and large linen closet. The spacious, outdoor deck with a pergola overlooks the green space, and the home fronts on an attractive green area. The attached, two-car garage is a great option for additional storage. This location is ideal, with easy access to Routes 3 and 252. It is close to so much, including walking trails, Ellis Athletic Center, the Ballroom at Ellis Preserve, Mostardi Nursery, and the Main Line Health building. You are also minutes away from Whole Foods, Pizzeria Uno, First Watch, and the Firepoint Grill. This home in Newtown Square is centrally located, yet feels like a retreat.
