Description
Presenting a pristine, masterfully updated 1937 okie-style colonial revival, originally inspired by the historic appleford mansion in villanova. designed by renowned philadelphia architect e. nelson edwards, this home was envisioned in the spirit of a classic pennsylvania farmhouse—a style beloved and elevated by brognard okie. with its exceptional architectural pedigree and historic charm, this is truly one of the main line’s legacy properties.
every detail of this home was crafted with intention: arched doorways, softly rounded transitions, barn doors, random-width hardwood floors, dentil molding, and inset chair rails all speak to its original artistry. authentic baldwin brass hardware and pewter sconces—faithful reproductions of 19th-century originals—further preserve its historical character.
the current owner, a seasoned interior designer, has seamlessly blended modern functionality with timeless style throughout. upstairs, you’ll find four bedrooms, including a luxurious primary suite with a private dressing room, soaking tub, and steam shower. the second bedroom boasts a private en suite bath, while the third and fourth bedrooms are connected by an elegantly appointed jack and jill bathroom, combining style and convenience with timeless charm.
the first floor is both elegant and practical, featuring two half baths, a laundry room, mudroom, and spacious walk-in pantry. the designer chef’s kitchen is a showpiece—outfitted for entertaining with viking ovens, a warming drawer, bosch dishwasher, 48” refrigerator, and soapstone countertops. a custom walnut island and bar peninsula complete the space, which opens to a sunlit family room featuring one of the home’s four gas fireplaces and panoramic views of the gardens.
the finished lower level expands the living space with a game room, wine storage, gym, sauna, utility room, and a charming gift-wrapping station. a separate lower-level suite—with its own kitchenette, full bath, and ample storage—offers a private haven for in-laws, guests, or a live-in nanny. an attached two car garage featuring automatic doors, a utility sink and access to the central vacuum system rounds out the lower level.
step outside into what feels like a french countryside retreat. set on a lush, park-like lot, the home is surrounded by curated gardens, flowering shrubs, and mature trees that provide year-round beauty and privacy. the backyard borders an 8-acre protected forest, ensuring rare seclusion in the heart of the main line.
anchoring the landscape is a custom gunite pool with an automatic cover, framed by a stone terrace and blooming garden beds—perfect for summer gatherings or tranquil mornings. multiple seating areas are nestled into the landscape, ideal for sunbathing, reading, or hosting alfresco dinners beneath the stars.
a charming gazebo sits at the edge of the woods, a serene spot for afternoon tea or quiet reflection. the outdoor kitchen—complete with a wood-burning fireplace, built-in pizza oven, coyote grill, and integrated bbq station—sets the stage for grand-scale entertaining. nearby, a cedar hot tub offers a peaceful retreat under a shaded canopy of trees. a luxurious outdoor shower, featuring both rain head and hand-held options, completes the spa-like ambiance.
thoughtfully positioned to maximize light and landscape, the entire home overlooks the exquisite, custom-designed pool and beautifully manicured grounds.
this is more than a beautifully maintained home—it’s a generational estate, meticulously preserved and thoughtfully updated, with architectural roots embedded in the rich fabric of the main line. located in the coveted lower merion school district with easy access to major roadways, it’s the ideal blend of heritage, comfort, and convenience.
come tour this extraordinary property—and experience a piece of living history.
