Main Line Monday: Flyers Fans, Your Dream Home Is in Wayne
Let’s be honest here. It’s going to be a really, really long time before any one of our Main Line Monday picks dethrones Fernside Cottage in Gladwyne. That being said, it’s not like there won’t be any that come close (or at least make some kind of impression). So what exactly is oh-so special about today’s pick? Guys, we can sum it up in three words: Indoor. Ice. Rink.
Yep, you read that correctly. This 6,188-square-foot residence in Wayne comes with its own synthetic ice rink (grab your ice skates, kids!). Per the listing, it’s located on the lower level, where there’s also a second kitchen, ice machine, home gym, and bonus recreation room.
(And while hockey fans are having a ball downstairs, the more summer activity-oriented will be happy to know there’s also an in-ground saltwater pool on the property.)
Of its more practical amenities, the home has two HVAC zones and an indoor sprinkler system. Maple hardwood floors are throughout and the first-level includes a door opening to the attached three-car garage. Notable house features are as follows: two-story family room, stone gas fire place, mudroom with built-in shelves and bench, whole-house surround sound (also runs through back yard), and an outdoor flagstone patio with hot tub. The kitchen is decked out in stainless steel GE appliances and it sits adjacent to the sunny breakfast room overlooking the pool and yard area.
Not to be forgotten, the private master suite claims a portion of the second-level, which is divided into two separate areas. In the case of the former, the suite comes with his & her walk-in closets, vanity area with built-ins, and a bathroom with double-sinks. The second half of the floor, meanwhile, boasts a foyer with four bedrooms, laundry room, and a staircase leading to a finished third level perfect for as an office or play space.
