Discover a rare fusion of architecture, nature, and serenity at 411 Clairemont Road—a one‑of‑a‑kind mid‑century modern home infused with Japanese Zen influences, tucked away on a serene, tree‑lined street in the heart of Villanova, Lower Merion Township. Offering 3 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and the flexibility for a fourth bedroom, this expansive 3,442‑square‑foot residence delivers the convenience of one‑floor living on a beautifully flat and private ¾ acre lot that feels surprisingly expansive and hidden from view. From the street, the home appears understated and modest—but step inside and the experience shifts dramatically. Vertically aligned cedar siding and natural stone accents give way to walls of glass, minimalist architectural lines, and curated materials, all centered around a breathtaking Zen courtyard. Professionally designed, it features sculptural illuminated boulders, raked gravel, and a tiered composite deck that’s visible from nearly every room—an ever-present invitation to pause, reflect, and breathe. Step through the double front doors to a view of the Zen courtyard bathed in natural light. To the right lies the bright, airy living and dining area, framed by shoji-style panels and expansive glass—ideal for intimate gatherings or quiet mornings. Just beyond the living area, the kitchen is as stunning as it is functional, with granite countertops, custom cabinetry, a central island with a glass breakfast table, built-in desk, built-in pantry, and premium appliances including a GE Monogram refrigerator, Thermador hood, Dacor cooktop and ovens, and Sharp microwave. Across from the courtyard, a quiet den awaits—perfect for a home office, media room, or potential fourth bedroom—with sliding glass doors overlooking the garden. The heart of the home is the stunning family room, showcasing stepped ceilings, recessed lighting, polished marble floors, and a central skylight. Wall-to-wall glass and French doors reveal an expansive composite deck and a flat, private backyard—featuring lush lawn, mature trees, and a convenient half basketball court. The primary suite is its own sanctuary, with direct courtyard access, a generous walk-in closet, and a spa-like marble bath with dual vanities, sculptural soaking tub beneath a circular skylight, and elegant gold fixtures. Two additional large, light-filled bedrooms offer generous proportions, recessed lighting, garden views, and ample closet space—served by an updated shared hall bath. Directly off the kitchen, the finished lower level includes a full bathroom, laundry room, storage, and flexible space for a gym, playroom, or guest suite. Completing the experience is a two-car attached garage, roof and gutters (2021), hot-water heater (2021), two-zone HVAC, courtyard deck and zen garden (2020), full basement waterproofing (2016), and a reliable backup generator. Surrounded by mature Japanese maples and lush landscaping, and ideally located just minutes from Black Rock Middle School, the Villanova train station, King of Prussia, and with direct access to Center City Philadelphia in under 25 minutes, 411 Clairemont Road is more than a home. It’s a private, spacious sanctuary that surprises, delights, and offers modern elegance—all on one remarkable floor.
