301 Windsor Ave, Wayne's most coveted property is a one-of-a-kind home that truly exudes history and elegance while simultaneously bringing to light a modern flare, and you now have the opportunity to make it your own! This massive 5 bedroom, Tudor-style, walled and gated residence is located in sought after Wayne, the Main Line's most walkable community. Built in 1925 for Wawa heiress Lydia Wood Baily by Frank Stephens, sculptor and co-founder of the utopian community of Arden, this landmark architectural gem originally housed a private Shakespeare theatre. Windsor has just undergone a four-year $3 million renovation by Period Architecture that has transformed it into the amazingly unique home that it is today. A brand new historically accurate carriage house was constructed within the last two years and functions as a garage or entertainment space for the property. The carriage house also has a modernized, temperature-controlled studio/office space on the second floor. The main house has been reinvented and restored to showcase the original arts and crafts details that enhance carefully reconfigured interiors. The slate roof, German medieval shutters, fabulous new millwork and cabinetry, stained and leaded glass windows, and antique hand-carved sculptural elements contribute to the old-world atmosphere. Delightful and commodious rooms and newly landscaped grounds make this the perfect retreat from the mundane concerns of modern life. New state-of-the-art mechanical systems and extensive landscaping and site work enhance this perfect setting for personal creativity and comfortable living. The region's most talented artists, architects, engineers, artisans and mechanical geniuses created Windsor in the 1920s and their 2020 counterparts have brought it up to the highest modern standards while preserving its historic architectural integrity. The list of designers and contractors who have worked on Windsor reads like a who's who of the Main Line's most respected professionals. At just under 7,000 livable square feet, this iconic, landmark property, located in the renowned Radnor School District, is priced exceptionally well. Windsor presents a rare opportunity for the astute buyer looking for something very special. This home truly offers everything a homeowner could ask for. Windsor has never had, nor will it ever have. .. . a counterpart.

From its original construction in 1925, the extraordinary residence, "Assisi" has long been recognized as one of Wayne's landmark properties and architectural zeniths. Surrounded by a shoulder high stone wall and capped with a multi-colored slate roof, this 5 bedroom 3 and 2 1/2 bath Arts and Crafts stunner was comprehensively renovated in 2014-2016. The owners, seeking to right-size, were unwilling to compromise on anything but useless square footage and assembled an extraordinary team of design talents including Period Architecture, Linda Phillips interiors and Trey Halkett woodworking to execute a flawless jewel of a home where no space is unimportant and no detail compromised. The result a sophisticated, important highly crafted but welcoming home within a short walk to the towns center.
