Louis I. Kahn masterwork in Hatboro, PA retains a high degree of architectural integrity, with the majority of its original features intact. Kahn worked with original and only owners to create a single-family residence sited on nearly 3 acres along the Pennypack Creek. The site slopes gently to the creek and beyond to a small wooded area called the "meadow", accessible from a Kahn-designed bridge. The sidewalls of the house and shed are clad in tidewater cypress set above a stone foundation. Comprised of two "cubes" set at a forty-five degree angle to each other, separating "public" (living, dining, and kitchen areas) and "private" (bedroom) areas of the house, the Fisher-Kahn House is a stunning example of the ordering principles (small, individual spaces and large, group spaces) that are a hallmark of Kahn's larger and better-known institutional projects. The four bedroom, 2 1/2 bath house offers verdant views from every window. Sale and deed subject to preservation easements.
