Property Description
Designed by famous Main Line architect Walter K. Durham, this lovely home is built of local stone (Wissahickon schist) in the French Norman style. It contains some of Durham's signature details such as the turret and interior rounded walls. The front entry hall is impressive with slate floor, cathedral ceiling, and curving staircase with wrought iron bannister. Step down into the generous sized living room, with hardwood floors, and abundant windows. The front wall is richly paneled and includes several built-in shelves, a wood-burning fireplace, comfy window seat with storage below, and even a "secret" cabinet. The back wall overlooks the flagstone terrace which is accessed through a Dutch door. The dining room is a sunny, welcoming place with east facing windows, lovely hardwood French doors, and also has access to the terrace. Exit through the swinging door to the wonderful butler's pantry with glass fronted cabinets for your entertaining china and glassware. A bar sink is also located here. The kitchen includes a breakfast bar and a walk-in pantry closet. Like any 94 year old dowager, some upkeep is necessary here. Off the kitchen are a full bath and two smaller offices/bedrooms which serve originally as the servant's quarters. A favorite feature of the home is the original bell system, used to summon the servants to the back door, front door, living room or one of the bedrooms. Follow the curving staircase to the second floor and take two steps down to the primary bedroom suite. This room has two closets, one with built-in drawers and shelves, and wide window sills over looking the front, back, and side yards. The bedroom has hardwood floors and the bathroom here has a tile floor and a large walk-in shower. Return to the upstairs hallway where you will find three generously sized bedrooms all with hardwood floors and windows looking out in two directions. Two of the bedrooms have mirrored closet doors and two have wide window sills. The hall bath, with tiled floor has a tub with shower and across the hall is a linen closet. There is a full walk-up attic with a wood floor and a large cedar closet. The storage possibilities up here are endless. There is also a full, unfinished basement with laundry and potential for a workshop or game room. A waterproofing system is guaranteed and transfers to the new owner. Walk out at grade to the driveway and the two car garage with entry from the back of the house. Outside you will find a covered back porch and a flagstone patio. The lot contains many large, shade trees for privacy and comfort. This highly sought after neighborhood is close to schools, services, and shopping and just a mile from the Haverford train station. If you don't mind a few updating projects, come and take a look at your new home! Listing agent is executor of this estate.
