Contemporary

Sophistication, simplicity and subtle architecture are the definition of what a contemporary home entails and 1983 Melmar Road is the quintessential embodiment of those exact traits. This near 4,000 sq ft home is peacefully situated on half an acre in a private cul-de-sac in the Biddle Estates section of Huntingdon Valley and in the award winning Abington School District. As you approach the property, notice the awesome mason and wood facade and start to appreciate the sophisticated essence that will soon become apparent throughout this home. Through the grand double door entrance you’ll be greeted by an astounding two-story foyer with large translucent skylights, a stunning floating staircase and floor to ceiling windows that draw your eyes into the unique “hot-tub” space. Proceed past the quiet library with built-ins and stunning wallpaper, and further along passing the oversized den, through the formal dining room and into the open kitchen/living combination space with immediate access to the large deck which is perfect for anyone looking to entertain or to enjoy the sights and sounds that this tree lined corner lot provides. This first floor is complete with even more floor-to-ceiling windows, a convenient powder room, working wood burning fireplace, large entry closet, stainless steel appliances, trash compactor, downdraft flat top griddle, and an intercom system. Well placed chandeliers and intricate hardwood flooring throughout complete the first floor. The delineation throughout the first floor is subtle yet sophisticated because of how the home uses hard lines to separate each space into its own while simultaneously allowing the feeling of openness. The second floor of this home is split into two sections. The first half includes three large bedrooms with plenty of closet space, a full bathroom and second floor laundry. The second half of this floor is fully dedicated to the primary suite. The vaulted ceilings feature large skylights that flood the room with an abundance of natural light during the day and make evening stargazing a wondrous delight. Travel through the large floor plan passing by the corner wood burning fireplace and into the marble enclosed primary bathroom containing a large jacuzzi tub and steamer/shower stall. Last but not least is the fully finished basement that runs the entire length of the home which includes ample storage space and a conveniently located powder room. The mechanical features of this home complete the essence of form meets function and for more information please inquire within. Imagine what it would be like to live in a space where everything has a purpose such as this home clearly does.
