Manor

This French Country residence sits majestically on a gently rising, superior 1.5 acre lot in one of the best neighborhoods in northside Villanova on a walkable cul-de-sac. An executive retreat featuring approximately 9000 square feet of exquisite living space which was originally designed by the renowned architect, Walter K. Durham. The architectural goal of the 2018 renovation was to preserve and enhance the original dramatic "Durham" design elements, such as floor to ceiling windows to produce a home that is perfect for family living and for gracious entertaining. An open floor plan, coming in from the courtyard is seen visually throughout the home to the gorgeous pool area and walled courtyard, creating a melding of interior and exterior spaces. The chef's dream gourmet kitchen opens up to a spacious family room with breathtaking views of the glorious grounds, pool, spa, terraces and pool house. Gracious room sizes with high ceilings, expansive bright windows and a wonderful open flow. The home features 5 en-suite bedrooms, 6 full and 2 half custom baths and a fully finished daylight lower level. The entire landscape was designed by an award winning Landscape Architect. A European gravel entrance circular auto court, rear walled courtyard, an Alee' of "tree form" white hydrangeas, magical English Oak Pyramid street trees, Blue Princess Holly detailing, extensive Belgian block borders and Pennsylvania Blue-stone capped walls. Vermont slate roof, copper down spouts and gutters, extensive exterior molding detail, one of a kind custom crystal and brass detailed railings, and much more.
