Surrounded by pastoral beauty and across from preserved land, this classic 1930s Main Line estate blends privacy with convenience in one of Gladwyne’s most desirable settings. The painted white stone exterior with black shutters captures timeless character on 2.47 acres with sweeping lawn and mature landscaping. 1324 Youngsford Road encompasses a main residence with 7,112 square feet on three levels—five bedrooms, five full and one half bath—along with a two-bedroom, two-bath carriage home. Combined home and carriage house offers 7 beds, 7.5 baths, The main level showcases distinguished spaces, where old-world character meets architectural detail. A slate walkway with wrought-iron railing leads to the front entry, opening to a foyer that introduces gracious gathering rooms. Straight ahead, the dining room is framed by a wide triple window, creating a beautiful setting for formal dining. To the right, the living room impresses with wide-plank hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, and a paneled fireplace surround that reflects the home’s craftsmanship. French doors open to a side slate terrace with a stone sitting wall overlooking the pool and gardens, while expansive windows and doors throughout this level flood the rooms with natural light. From the living room, two openings connect to the striking family room addition by renowned builder E.B. Mahoney. Distinguished by generous proportions, hardwood floors, and a wall of windows, this light-filled space is the heart of the home. A second fireplace adds warmth, while French doors extend the living space outdoors. A hall off this room houses a three-stop elevator serving the lower level and primary suite. A cozy sitting room with built-ins and the home’s third fireplace provides an intimate retreat, while a powder room is conveniently placed off the foyer. The sunny kitchen offers three windows, a side door, and an adjoining breakfast nook with a bay window for casual meals. This wing also includes an office, laundry room, full bath, and rear staircase. While functional, these spaces offer opportunities for customization or a more open layout. Upstairs, the expansive primary suite spans an entire wing with a spacious bedroom, walk-in closets with built-ins, and a sitting room that can serve as a home office or quiet retreat. The en-suite bath includes a large vanity and water closet, with space for updating. Bedrooms two and three share a Jack-and-Jill bath, while bedroom four enjoys its own en-suite bath and walk-in closet. The third floor features a fifth bedroom with en-suite bath—ideal for a guest or Au pair suite. All bedrooms are carpeted, with hardwood flooring underneath awaiting refinishing. The walk-out lower level offers a recreation room with slate floors, panelled walls, beamed ceilings, a bar, and the home’s fourth fireplace. French doors open to a slate patio and the rear yard, providing access to the pool and gardens for entertaining. Storage areas, utilities, and interior access to the side-entry two-car garage complete this level. A separate carriage house provides 1,581 square feet of flexible space with living, dining, kitchen, bedroom, and full bath on the main level, plus a second bedroom and bath upstairs. Ready for cosmetic updates, it offers versatility for guests, in-laws, or business use, supported by the property’s license. Outdoor amenities include a pool with patio and greenery, a stone pool house, and expansive lawns with mature landscaping that create a picturesque setting. With timeless architecture, distinguished spaces, and strong bones to be re-imagined, this is a rare opportunity to own a standout home in one of Gladwyne’s most coveted settings. Just half a mile from the Village of Gladwyne and close to Kenealy Nature Park, the Bridlewild Trail, and award-winning Lower Merion schools, the property offers both tranquillity and accessibility.
