Hidden off a short private
lane in one the most valuable and sought-after
areas within the Philadelphia Region (and an area which is known
for its hidden estates and proximity to Center City),
is this perfectly private, custom-designed French country residence.
If you're looking for
a premiere property in an exceptionally peaceful and private setting,
you'll love this offering ... interior rooms and spaces are sunny,
quiet, nicely proportioned and very comfortable -- and the setting
is as beautiful as it is well-hidden.
Designed, built, and
owned by a well-known celebrity, the residence features many valuable architectural elements : polished
granite entry hall and reception area, hardwood floors, extensive
custom millwork, vaulted ceilings, a fully sound-proof library;
movie theatre; large master suite with vaulted ceiling and fireplace;
a custom-designed audio system; built-in freshwater
aquarium; a private elevator ... and much, much more.
The main kitchen includes
a chefs' grade stainless steel Thermador and SubZero appliance
package, large granite countertops and workspaces, and extensive
custom cabinetry. The kitchen is a bright, inviting, comfortable
space which opens onto a family room with floor-to-ceiling fieldstone
fireplace and a vaulted ceiling -- great for entertaining.
The residence is beautifully
positioned at the end of a short private lane, midst grounds and
gardens which have been beautifully and extensively landscaped.
The lawns are broad and well-manicured, and include a beautiful
collection of specimen evergreen and deciduous trees, shrubbery,
perennial gardens ... even a private terrace, with a reflecting
pond and fountain, at the end of a winding garden path -- perfect
for yoga or meditation.
Outdoor living areas,
including both the rear terrace and the pool terrace, are quiet,
private, nicely proportioned spaces for entertaining guests, and
for relaxing. The terraces also include an outdoor kitchen and
a pool bar, respectively.
Access to the residence
is carefully controlled, with electronic gates and a remote callbox
and security camera system.
The property is well-located
in one
of the Philadelphia region's most valuable and sought-after areas -- close to corporate
centers in Radnor, Conshohocken, Plymouth Meeting, Bala Cynwyd, Chesterbrook, and King of Prussia.
Easy access by car or
commuter rail to Center City and the Philadelphia International
Airport (PHL) -- both are within an approximate 15-25 minute drive
of this property.
Shown by private appointment.
