Private, Cozy Basement Apartment with Full Bath.
This is a small BASEMENT apartment. The apt includes a bedroom with full-sized bed, TV, small fireplace, full bath, with large closet. Also a sitting area with hospitality items. NO natural light, but all spaces are well lit. There is NOT space for an additional air mattress as it only holds two folks in the full size bed. There are three doors, one on the Bedroom, one on the Bathroom, & one that closes the apartment off from the rest of basement. No cats are ever allowed in the apartment. My Son-in-law calls this apartment THE BAT CAVE because he loves the privacy and sleeps so well in the total darkness day or night. Again, there is NO natural light coming into the space, but it is well lit. There are two windows in the sitting area outside of the apartment There are no cooking facilities, but I do provide a small microwave, a small fridge, an electric hot water pot, a Keurig, with accompanying container of water, teas, coffee, hot chocolate, sweeteners, creamer, micro popcorn, oatmeal, paper plates, bowls, napkins, cutlery. Guests can enter through the house and go down the basement stairway with railing or access the apartment via an outside stairwell with railing and lighting, weather permitting. Guests are welcome to access all outside areas, the breezeway, and pool area weather permitting. Special arrangements can be made for laundry room if needed. Kitchen is off limits. Host lives in house and will interface with guests for initial meeting and tour of space, explain amenities, etc. Guests will have key for access to accommodate their schedules. Guests can access space from inside house or outside stairway. Outside stairway not recommended in inclement weather or winter in general. Beautiful Main Line neighborhood one block from historic Merion Golf Course. Beautiful landscapes and many trees. Very close to Haverford College and other colleges in the area: Bryn Mawr, Rosemont, Villanova, etc. Easy access to route 30, SEPTA to downtown Phila via train or bus.. Minutes from all other Main Line neighborhoods: Ardmore, Narberth, Bala Cynwyd, Haverford, Rosemont, Villanova, Wayne, Berwyn, etc. Easy drive to Valley Forge Park. Easy access to all mass transit including R5 Paoli Thorndale train to Philadelphia, Route 100 High Speed Line from Upper Darby to Norristown. Train about 1 and a half miles down the street. High speed line at end of street less than a mile. Ample, free private parking in back of house. Apartment is suitable for one guest or a couple. One full sized bed (bigger than twin, not as big as queen). No air mattresses in space as it is not large enough. Guests will walk through a basement which has woodworking area on one side and their space on other side of basement. They must be comfortable walking up and down a full staircase into the basement from either outside or inside the house. Owners have three cats who are never allowed into apartment. Guests might hear cats using cat doors to enter and leave house. The cat doors are located in the outside basement door and the door at top of stairway into house. Since this space is small and priced accordingly, there are no open cooking facilities. A small fridge, microwave, and quick heating electric hot water pot and keurig are provided along with teas, coffee, hot chocolate, (similar to a standard hotel). I also provide paper plates, bowls, cups, napkins, utensils, microwave popcorn and oatmeal for guests' convenience.
