A rare find on one of the most exclusive and hidden streets in the Philadelphia area, just a stoneâs throw away from Gladwyneâs charming village center and minutes to central Philadelphia. 225 Maplehill Road is set on 3.79 acres of natural beauty and boasts 7,100+ sq ft of living space that combi...nes gorgeous views of a nature preserve with the ultimate in privacy, luxury and convenience. Follow the red brick path past an elegant water fixture to the front door, and you will enter the high-ceiling foyer, complete with marble floor. To the right of the foyer is a beautiful library with floor-to-ceiling cherrywood shelves, built-in workstation, and a sunny reading nook with bay window. The living room, which opens from the library, focuses on a French-style stone fireplace with mantel (gas flame), with bright floor-to-ceiling windows on either side. To the left of the foyer is a dining room with large windows, tasteful built-in display alcoves with shelves, gorgeous crown molding, and chandelier. An adjacent butler pantry, downstairs bar, and wine cellar make entertaining easy, as does the large kitchen, which features granite countertops, commercial-grade stainless steel appliances, a double sink, and a built-in desk nook with concealed printer cabinet. French doors in the kitchen open onto a spacious Brazilian hardwood deck. On the corner of the living room and kitchen is a warm and inviting sunroom with matchless views of the gardenâwhich was lovingly planted with rosebushes, peonies, and over a hundred trees by the previous ownersâand of the majestic trees and gently sloping protected land of the nature preserve. Nature surrounds you in this room, which is the ideal space to watch birds or occasional visits from families of deer just past the fence. A stunning feature of this house is the sun-drenched first floor master bedroom, with two ensuites and walk-in closets as well as independent deck access. The first floor is complete with a mud room, closets and laundry room with a brand-new washer and dryer powerful enough for all your laundry needs, as well as utility closets, cabinets, and a three-car garage. The second floor has four sizeable bedrooms and two bathrooms, along with several dedicated storage rooms. Each room provides beautiful views off different sides of the house, and a spacious landing, doubling as a sitting area, overlooks the foyer. The lower level has a large, sunny central area with a gas fireplace and wet bar that can function as a sitting area, home office, or combined space. There is a dedicated gym with a custom ventilation system, mirrored walls, and shock-absorbing rubber-tile flooring, right next to a bathroom with a high-pressure shower. Further amenities include a generous guest or in-law suite, two sets of French doors stepping directly out onto the brick patio and garden, wine cellar, and radiant floor heat. Uniquely, this level also contains a state-of-the-art compact library system with rolling stacks like those commonly found in law offices and university libraries. All in all, this is a quality architect-designed luxury house of the highest quality, in a tranquil, peaceful, and uncrowded setting, the beauty of which is unusual even for Gladwyne. Homes on this secluded street do not appear often. Schedule your tour to see and enjoy!
