212 Idris Road #F3

Welcome to Merion Manor Condominiums, a charming 1925 building converted from rentals to condos while keeping the best features of the property. This two + bedroom condo, F3, is a top floor unit (3rd floor, no elevator) with fabulous views of woods and trees. As you step into the property, you will notice throughout the unit the high ceilings with detailed crown moldings, tall baseboards, original solid wood flooring, and light pouring in from two exposures. This is a marvelous place to live! The large living room has a wood-burning fireplace. An adjacent sunroom has views through every one of the many windows in every direction. The dining room features big windows facing west and has the original wainscoting in excellent condition. Step into the handsome butler’s pantry with cabinets for extra storage. A modern kitchen awaits your culinary skills with gas cooking, a pantry with shelving and appliances (microwave, disposal, dishwasher and refrigerator) that were replaced within the last 5 years. A great surprise is the balcony off the kitchen where you can enjoy your cup of Joe in the morning or a glass of wine after a hard day at work. From the kitchen, you arrive in a breakfast room which has numerous potential uses. The adjoining powder room has a Bosch stacked washer/dryer (ventless). As you walk back through the living room, go to the original door with glass panes and enter the hallway where there is a full bath and two good-sized bedrooms. One bedroom faces west; the other faces east and has beautiful French doors and a Juliet balcony which overlook the front of the beautifully landscaped property. The condo has the feel of a “real” home, not just an "apartment" feel. You have a back and a front door! There is a garage spot (#5) owned by addendum to the deed as well as a big storage locker in the lower level. The HVAC (new in 2021) has a surge protector and air scrubber. This building is right across from the SEPTA regional rail Merion train station (Paoli-Thorndale line), inbound side, and will transport you to Center City Philadelphia in about 15 minutes. The building’s location also provides easy access to Narberth and Wynnewood shopping centers with stores and restaurants. Owners had knob-and-tube wiring removed in August 2026, as well as having grounded outlets installed. Smoke detectors were all replaced in June 2026, and the building is smoke-free. You will be so glad you found this wonderful new home and will enjoy its comfort, convenience and serenity!
