Extraordinary! A deep winding driveway bordered by a cherry laurel orchard guides one to a home different from any other in the area. The character of the 19th century flowing seamlessly into the comfort, light and efficiency of the 21st has created a one-of-a-kind 4 bedroom, 3 1/2 bathroom residence that epitomizes the warmth of "home" and lifts one's spirits all at the same time. In 1941, the owners transformed a handsome stone 1885 carriage house into a delightful home. In 1989, a light-filled addition increased its size, value and usefulness and an oversized stone two-car garage with guest apartment above was built. The current owners created a true 21st century primary suite with luxurious primary bath, upgraded many of the features of the house and brought an exemplary level of maintenance to the entire property. Most of the original 1941 architectural features intact from windows to woodwork. This very special property, graced by formal gardens and inground saltwater pool, is located in the desirable Wyndmoor residential neighborhood with resources from ballfields to small town center to beloved Memorial Day parade. Commuter train and popular Chestnut Hill shops and restaurants a 10 minute walk away.
