Welcome to 333 Contention Lane, a magnificent center hall Colonial offering three beautifully finished living levels in the heart of Berwyn and the top ranked Tredyffrin-Easttown School District.
An extremely well built home by master builder Ted Babiy. A full stucco removal and Hardie Plank installation was done in December of 2020. No need to deal with a messy remediation, it's already been done for you. This fabulous home provides serenity and privacy while also belonging to the Woodlea Community, offering the best of both worlds. Bordered by Contention, Margo and Bair Road, this voluntary neighborhood group organizes cocktail parties, community events and Holiday gatherings. Tucked away on a gorgeously planted lot and pleasant walk to the Berwyn Train Station, local pubs and restaurants. The screened porch, trex deck, outdoor kitchen and outdoor stone fireplace were custom designed and installed 2019-2021. The front to back entrance hall is flanked by a formal living room with a marble surround gas fireplace to the left and a classic formal dining room to the right. The gorgeous kitchen offers granite countertops, a multi-level center island with both tile and granite plus a vegetable sink, raised panel and display cabinetry, a tile backsplash, high end stainless steel appliances (Sub-Zero, Thermador and Kitchenaid) and a charming farmhouse sink. The dining area off the kitchen opens to the adjacent family room and offers a doorway to the screened in porch. A butler's pantry with granite counter, bar sink and display cabinets connects the kitchen and dining rooms. The terrific family room offers a wood burning fireplace with a cast iron insert, a cozy window seat and built-in cabinetry. The home office is the ideal setting for working at home or online learning. The tiled mudroom connects the home to the three car garage & features beadboard walls, a window seat & a doorway to the covered side porch. Gleaming hardwood floors, two powder rooms, chair railing and nine foot ceilings and much more complete the picture for the first floor of this very special home. A turned staircase with an Old World window seat leads to the second floor. The master suite with tray ceiling offers two walk-in closets and a dressing area along with a sumptuous master bathroom with handsome tile work, an oversized shower, a double sink vanity and a classic soaking tub. Two Jack and Jill bedrooms are connected by a full bathroom with a double sink. One of these bedrooms is currently configured as an upstairs den. The fourth bedroom has direct access to a full bathroom. The fifth bedroom features one walk-in closet leading to another plus access to unfinished eaves storage. The beautifully finished walkout basement offers full daylight windows, access to the multi-level patio and a powder room. A massive storage room can easily serve as a home gym and offers endless possibilities. The exterior features of the home are truly exceptional. A new screened-in porch features Trex flooring, a vaulted wood paneled ceiling, a very cool looking ceiling fan and a heater. The adjacent Trex deck overlooks the patio and fireplace and is highlighted by an outdoor kitchen with grill, storage cabinets and refrigerator. The large paver patio is centered by a magnificent stone fireplace. These features along with a spacious yard come together to create the ideal setting for outdoor relaxing, entertaining, grilling and dining al fresco. Relax after a hard day's work with a cool drink or start the day off right with a coffee as you look out over the beautiful grounds. A rear staircase, 2nd floor laundry room, LOW TAXES, glass transoms, beautiful window treatments and plantation shutters, ceiling fans, up to date paint colors throughout (2018), updated light fixtures, a holiday light package, tremendous closet and storage space plus quality detail work throughout all combine to make 333 Contention Lane an extraordinary investment and a wonderful place to call home.
