Description

Location and Perfection combined -This home and property (2.65 acres) are PERFECTION! This classic Okie home dates back to 1928 with the DR and LR fireplace surrounds installed from a 1700's Doylestown home, random width pegged floors, large windows (all 55 of them have been replaced to match the originals) and other gorgeous architectural details. The current owner took great pains to increase the footprint to include 2 stunning family rooms, a gorgeous gourmet kitchen with dining area, a mudroom, separate office with exterior access, and primary suite with large bathroom and 2 walk-in closets. There is also a wonderful finished basement that currently houses the gym with ample storage, a temperature controlled wine cellar and a large mechanical room with workshop area. The additions are of the highest quality and incredibly well appointed with built-ins in keeping with the original house. The tall ceiling height throughout the house (soaring in the Primary BR) make the house feel spacious and bright and the wood floors in the additions match perfectly with the original flooring. The Gourmet kitchen boasts a Wolfe range and oven, a second Bosch oven, the most beautiful honed granite counters with dramatic veins, quality painted cabinetry, two sinks, a bar area with wine refrigerator, a center island with Simon Pearce pendant lighting...it's truly stunning. There are views of the sprawling level grounds out every window and the house is streaming with light in every room. There are also 3 different access points to back patio creating a wonderful indoor/outdoor flow. The grounds include an expansive front, side and rear lawn, specimen plantings, raised beds with an irrigation system, an outdoor shower along with a concrete pad and plumbing for a hot tub and a large gorgeous slate patio with portico that includes uplighting, a ceiling fan and beautiful dark wood ceiling. There is also a 3-Car garage. This house is truly spectacular. It is perfect for the discerning buyer who is looking for privacy, the highest quality throughout, and the perfect blend of old and new - offering every convenience of a newer home. And, of course the location can't be beat - it's in the coveted and convenient Borough of Rose Valley, a short distance from 2 SEPTA train stations (25 min ride to Center City), a 12 minute drive to the Philadelphia International Airport and more! Houses of this caliber do not come available often!
