Property Description
Welcome to 105 Stratford Lane, a spectacular home nestled in highly coveted Wallingford Hills. This classic, stone Tudor, one of the original 12 homes in this esteemed subdivision, offers an opportunity to experience the epitome of sophisticated living. Steeped in history and situated amidst meticulously landscaped grounds and verdant foliage, this home is a testament to the exquisite craftsmanship of the era in which it was built. As you approach, you'll be welcomed by a street adorned by vibrant, flowering trees and mature plantings. The idyllic lot, set against a picturesque open space, offers unparalleled tranquility. A beautiful stone archway provides the perfect spot for storing firewood defines it’s unique character immediately. Here neighbors come together as a close-knit community, sharing experiences and camaraderie. These range from a neighborhood watch of nearly 40 years, to progressive dinners, Octoberfest celebrations, Christmas caroling, and even visits from Santa. Step inside, and prepare to be captivated by the sheer grandeur of this meticulously maintained residence, where over 40, steel-casement windows bathe rooms in natural light. Entertain in the expansive formal living room, where the focal point is an oversized, custom fireplace, and a screened porch facilitates flow from interior to exterior. The formal dining room is also spacious, accommodating up to 14 guests with grace and elegance. The intimate den with wet bar at the end of the center hall offers a cozy retreat after a long day, or as additional entertaining space for gatherings. This level also has a powder room, providing seamless convenience for guests. The chef's kitchen is a culinary enthusiast's dream--boasting granite countertops, top-of-the-line stainless appliances, including an oversized Dacor range. From the prep area to the "setup" staging area, every aspect of this kitchen has been designed to streamline and enhance your dining experience. Off the kitchen there is a mudroom that passes through to the garage, where a stairway provides access to the basement storage area. Upstairs, charm and functionality harmonize to create the perfect living space for families. This expansive level features 4, large bedrooms, 2 full baths, a powder room, and even a small balcony. The master suite exudes comfort and elegance, with a dressing room and en suite bath. The room traditionally used for guests is a vaulted, open-beamed sanctuary, and serves as a retreat for guests. Formerly a child’s room, the double office could easily be reverted, with plenty of room for bunk beds and play areas. Adjacent, the bedroom across the hall provides additional spaciousness and comfort. The level also features a walk-up attic for an abundance of storage options. Lastly, the laundry room/half bath adds convenience and functionality to daily living. Proceed to the lower level, where you'll find a finished basement with an additional wet bar and magnificent stone fireplace – perfect for hosting movie nights or gatherings. Also featured is another half bath, an alcove that could accommodate a small office, a cedar closet, additional laundry facilities, and storage area connecting to the garage. No attention to detail has been spared in the design of this home. Outside, the front yard accentuates the home with unique plantings, featuring a Sargent's Weeping Hemlock and Hinoki Cypress, adding to the charm. The two-tiered, rear lawn offers a splendid, private outdoor space that has accommodated a sizeable jungle gym/swing set as easily as it has large, formal gatherings. This home provides access to prestigious Wallingford-Swarthmore Schools, is walking distance to the train station, and is five minutes to lively Media Town, arterial highways, and 15 mins to PHL Intl. Lastly, to allay buyer concerns, a new sewer lateral was installed (2023) and a 1-Yr Home Warranty will be provided. Opportunities like this rarely come up--schedule your tour today before its gone.
