319 North Bowman Avenue is a classic stone Colonial in the heart of Merion Station, thoughtfully updated while preserving the scale, craftsmanship, and warmth that define Main Line architecture of this era. Set on a level quarter-acre along a quiet, tree-lined street, the home offers over 100 years of character paired with meaningful improvements completed throughout the past decade. Natural light fills the home from morning through evening. The welcoming foyer opens to generously proportioned living and dining spaces designed for both everyday living and entertaining. The family room, updated with custom Marvin windows in 2024, overlooks the private rear yard and serves as a bright central gathering space. The kitchen features cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, a five-burner gas cooktop, new double wall ovens and dishwasher installed in 2025, and ample space for casual dining and a work area. Beyond the kitchen, the flat rear yard is framed by mature landscaping, with new walkways and refreshed plantings completed in 2023. Upstairs, the primary suite includes a sitting area and private bath, while the third floor offers three additional bedrooms and a full bath, providing exceptional flexibility for guests, offices, or growing households. The fully finished lower level was rebuilt in 2024 with French drains, Drylock waterproofing, and sump pumps, creating substantial additional living space ideal for a gym, playroom, media room, or studio.
Additional improvements throughout the home include updated bathroom fixtures and finishes in 2025, refinished and repainted radiators, updated lighting throughout, custom window treatments, and significant system and infrastructure upgrades that allow the home to live comfortably while maintaining its original architectural character.. One of Merion Station's most appealing qualities is its walkability. Merion Elementary, the Merion SEPTA station, Narberth's shops and restaurants, Saint Joseph's University, and the Barnes Arboretum are all nearby. Located within the highly regarded Lower Merion School District, the home is served by Merion Elementary, Bala Cynwyd Middle School, and Lower Merion High School. A rare opportunity to own a gracious stone Colonial with space, character, meaningful updates, and a location that truly supports everyday Main Line living.
