Property Description
14 Simpson Rd is a 3-story twin with 6 Bedrooms, 2 full Baths and 2 half Baths. It was built in 1900 and has intricate woodwork from top to bottom. First floor fireplaces in living room and dining room have original ornate wooden mantelpieces and glazed Victorian tile. Subtle but lovely lead-glass windows in living room. A square, winding staircase stretches from the foyer to 3rd floor. Double 36-inch pocket doors separating the foyer from the dining room dining room from the foyer. Original picture hanging molding in living room, foyer and dining room. Updated kitchen with recessed lighting, stainless steel appliances and granite peninsula. Powder room and laundry area off the kitchen, separated by a door with a unique window at top.
The second and third floors both offer 3 bedrooms and a full bath. All floors are original hardwood that have been meticulously refinished. Walls are plaster and in perfect condition. A set of backstairs leads to the kitchen and adds to the character of the home. Basement is unfinished but offers enormous possibilities as it stretches the full length of the house. It is a walk-out basement that includes a powder room and a pool table (which seller will remove if requested by buyer.)
The front porch offers some of the finest stone work on the Main Line. Its walls were built by the owner in 1970 using the finest Pennsylvania bluestone. The floor of the porch is a spectacular flagstone patio built in 1985, also by the owner. Both the wall and floor exude first-class artisanship from one of the Main Line's most renowned stone masons. The backyard is fenced-in for privacy and there is a small, elevated patio off the back door of the house. There is a two-car detached garage.
The home has been completely updated. It has a new 200 Amp electrical panel w/ two sub panels and the entire house was rewired. There is a new Central Air conditioning system. A 50-year roof was installed in 2018. This amazing property is a very short walk to all of the offerings of downtown Ardmore, including Suburban Square. It is very close to the Ardmore train station, which offers regional trains to Philadelphia as well as Amtrak service to New York and all Amtrak destinations.
This home is a rare gem. It is an extremely rare combination of character, quality, condition and location.
