Set on a quiet, tree-lined street in the heart of Penn Wynne, 1417 Dorset Lane is a red-brick colonial twin that strikes the perfect balance between historic charm and modern comfort. From the moment you walk through the door, you're greeted by natural light, parquet hardwood floors, and a layout that feels warm, thoughtful, and livable. The main level features a spacious living room anchored by a classic fireplace with vintage mantle—ideal for cozy evenings or laid-back weekend mornings. A formal dining room offers a sense of tradition, while the updated eat-in kitchen brings things into the present with sleek granite counters, warm wood cabinetry, and newer stainless appliances that make meal prep easy and enjoyable. The french door off the kitchen opens to a covered deck great for sipping morning coffee, and a newly renovated half bath completes the main floor. Upstairs, the primary bedroom is bright and roomy with its own ensuite bath and private roof deck, while two additional bedrooms and a hall bath provide space for guests, family, or a home office setup. The lower level is finished and flexible—great as a playroom, media space, gym, or all three. Step out back to enjoy a fenced yard and private deck—an ideal setup for grilling, unwinding, or letting a dog or little ones run free. The 1 car attached garage and widened driveway make parking easy, and the home is equipped with central air for year-round comfort. With a newer roof, updated hvac (2024),fresh paint inside and out and updated appliances all you have to do is move in! What truly sets this home apart is its location: just a few blocks from the library, the elementary school, and parks. You’ll feel tucked into a tight-knit neighborhood while staying close to everything Lower Merion and and the Main Line have to offer.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
