Our 3-bedroom twin home, built in 1900 features many original architectural details from the period. Enjoy our oak floors, front porch w/swinging bench & back deck w/grill overlooking the rear garden. Each of our 3 bedrooms has a comfortable queen size bed: rear bedroom, larger front bedroom and the renovated 3rd flr space (quietest room). The single futon in front room can be easily positioned anywhere on 2nd floor. Window units provide a/c (modern, quiet, remote-controlled) - remote-controlled ceiling fan in kitchen and front bedroom. Kitchen is fully equipped - chefs will be hard-pressed to find anything missing! Full-size refrigerator w/bottom freezer. Flat-screen Smart TV w/Apple TV (Netflix, YouTube, Hulu, etc) in living-room and complimentary WI-FI throughout the house. Wireless printer available for guest use on 2nd flr. New user-friendly thermostat for heating control (located in D/R). French doors off kitchen open onto rear deck with outdoor seating, table and shade umbrella - lovely space for breakfast in summer. Electric outdoor grill for BBQ.. Guest Access: Front door is keyless entry. You will have the privacy of this home all to yourself. Interaction with Guests: We are available by mobile phone any time during your stay. We'd love to share what we know about the neighborhood: good food, coffee shops, shopping, parks, gardens, etc. The Neighborhood: Bryn Mawr is located on The Main Line, an older suburb of Philadelphia. Our house is on a quiet street within walking distance to the center of Bryn Mawr, with numerous shops, restaurants and all the usual amenities of a neighborhood. Center city Philadelphia is approx 12 miles away, by car or SEPTA train. Close to several colleges and universities: Villanova, Haverford, Bryn Mawr, Rosemont, Swarthmore, Immaculata, Gwynedd-Mercy, Arcadia, Penn, Drexel, Phila Univ.
Our house could probably accommodate more but 5 adults will comfortably enjoy the space and furnishings.
A great alternative to having to rent 2 hotel rooms!

We had the best time and loved the house. Also so easy to walk to shops and cafes in town. We could not have been more comfortable! Will definitely come back to this house and would highly recommend it.
Our family loved staying in this wonderful Bryn Mawr home just before the holidays. I can't say enough about its cozy upstairs. Everything was carefully labeled and clear. We were never confused about how to find or use anything. The kitchen had everything we needed and more. Extra bedding, pillows, towels, and beyond...check, check, and check. We felt so comfortable and at home. Thank you!
A lovely family home, really well equipped and in a great location. Rod was an attentive host and the whole stay went very smoothly.
We rented this house as we were expecting a friend from Germany who was staying 10 days with us; since we live in an apartment we wanted our friend to have a nice relaxing vacation in a spacious environment. We were not disappointed! This house, we called home during our stay, was as billed: charming and relaxing-wonderful! The amenities rivaled what I've experienced in 4 and 5 star hotels around the world! Absolutely beautiful, well appointed and functional kitchen; the owners even had food (in the freezer and up to date) in case we didnt have a chance to shop! The beds were very comfortable and the rooms nicely done. I work from home and was quite comfortable working here as I needed during our 10 day stay. I would rent this again in the future, thanks to the hosts for providing such a warm functional away home!
An all around fabulous house that exceeded our expectations. As a previous reviewer said, it's like staying at a very organized friend's house. The backyard is lovely, and the location was perfect for us, just one block from the shops and reastaurants, yet completely quiet. We would love to stay again in this beautiful house.
Very clean, lots of amenities, and quick responses.
We had a great experience staying here. Communication with Rod was excellent. The house is exactly as it’s shown. We were able to fit our minivan in the garage but it was snug fit. The house was stocked extremely well. We enjoyed our stay.
We 3 adults / 2 generations enjoyed our stay. Feels like staying at an organized/neat friend’s place. Clean and comfy. Well stocked kitchen for cooking breakfast. Easy to work with Rod. Nice to have the garage for parking and the lovely area out back. Convenient short walk to the Septa for taking rail to Philly. My 77 year old mom took a Lyft to Haverford to visit our student and felt comfortable enough to walk the 1.6 miles back. 6 minute drive to Stoneleigh Gardens - highly recommend. Note one shared bathroom/shower for the 3 bedrooms up fairly steep stairs. Next door neighbors with a shared wall are musicians who sometimes practice in the evenings and weekend mornings (this was the reason for 4 stars vs 5. Out of the owner's control obviously but did impact our stay). We would stay again.
We stayed here in 2019 and were very happy with the home which is why we chose it again. The home is impeccably clean! Rod has great communication and answers questions quickly. The location is perfect! Many restaurants and shops are all walkable. Try Snap Pizza, El Limon, Surreal ice cream and boba, and Hope's cookies to name just a few. The house has a homey feel that makes coming back from a long day of exploring the Philly area or visiting your college student so relaxing. We highly recommend this VRBO. We plan to return in the future.
Will definitely come back- great location- wonderful amenities- super communication between owner. Easy walk to Bryan Mawr. I cannot say enough great positive remarks!
Comfortable, homely and warm house in a quiet neighbourhood. Perfect for our family of 4.
We were in for a quick weekend in Philadelphia. The house was great, very tidy and clean. Well decorated and comfortable. Instructions for entry were clear. We had an unforeseen difficulty with the garage door opener but Rod was very responsive and did everything in his power to fix the issue. We would definitely stay again if given the opportunity.
This is a beautiful home. It is in a quiet neighborhood not far from restaurants and shops. It was a quick drive to everything we wanted to do while we were there. The home has been beautifully maintained and everything you could need is available in the home. Rods communication and instruction was great. Very responsive if anything comes up. Perfect stay!!
Great property and host
close to college, well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds.
Second time staying here. Absolutely lovely house and great communication from Rod. Thank you, once again, for making our stay in Bryn Mawr comfortable and easy.
Rod's beautiful home was the perfect place for our family in a lovely neighborhood with restaurants and boutique shops only a couple of blocks away. The home is well taken care of, every room wonderfully clean and comfortable, a kitchen that is well stocked for cooking and we even BBQed and had family time on the deck in his lovely garden. Having morning coffee on the sitting swing on the front porch was a delight. Everything you could possibly need was easy to find in the house because it is so well organized. Rod has done an exceptional job at keeping the charming characteristics of a vintage home modernized with today's needs. Well done and well appreciated. What more can we say, we loved our stay here and the beautiful community. Thank you Rod!
The house is lovely and very well equipped. The house really felt like home. We were in town for college graduation and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Rod was very responsive when we had a question. I’m just sorry I didn’t find this house sooner. We would have stayed for all of our visits during our daughter’s time at Bryn Mawr College.
