Home of the Week: Modern Farmhouse in Walkable Main Line

  756 Buck Ln in Haverford is a charming single in a wonderful, walkable location!  This 4 bed home has a beautifully redone sunroom/porch that leads to a living and dining area full of original details. The eat-in-kitchen has freshly painted cabinetry and plenty of space for a table, additional cabinets or a charming banquette!  Laundry/mudroom off of kitchen leads to slate-paved side porch with hanging plants. Off of mudroom is a full bathroom perfect for guests or washing off after gardening in the back yard!  2 car garage and charming yard space.           2nd floor sports the enlarged master bedroom with dressing room and large closet. The front bedroom is perfect for guests or little ones! A hall bath was recently refreshed on the 2nd floor. The third floor could be an amazing master suite or could stay as is with 2 bedrooms, one perfect for an office and a quaint hall bathroom with tub - the ideal spot for washing little ones or taking a break while working from home!  Walk-thro
