This quintessential Main Line estate, sits on more than 3 level acres of charming English gardens, rolling lawn, hedge fencing and tree lined entrance on a premier street. The stately Pennsylvania fieldstone home with its Ludowici tile roof stands perfectly on the property. Completely refinished by Ed Mahoney Builders, the finished product impeccably saved the beauty of the old while bringing every functioning piece to modern excellence. Whether indoors or out, there is endless grand scale or intimate entertaining. Family friendly mudroom (including separate cubbies, deep drawers and individual electronic hubs), high ceiling lower level with outdoor access (including a theatre/media room, bar/kitchen and a 3000 bottle capacity climate controlled wine cellar), nanny suite, exercise studio, original plaster moldings, commercial kitchen, irrigation, camera system, landscape lighting, marble finishes, study, sunroom and mahogany library are part of this fine residence.
Villanova, located between Bryn Mawr and Wayne, is a Main Line and collegiate Radnor Township neighborhood with stone manors and leafy rail-side lanes. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Lancaster Avenue at Ithan Avenue, where coffee counters, small eateries, and campus-day foot traffic set a steady rhythm. Villanova University’s Gothic halls and athletic venues shape the streetscape, while the SEPTA Paoli/Thorndale Line threads through at Villanova Station. Residential blocks mix Tudor Revival, Colonial, and mid-century homes behind mature trees and fieldstone walls. Chanticleer Garden and the Radnor Trail add a green counterpoint to the academic core.
