About this home
There are homes that follow trends, and there are homes that tell a story. Set on approximately 2.4 breathtaking acres in desirable Whitpain Township, within the award-winning Wissahickon School District, and just across Township Line Road from Lower Gwynedd, this extraordinary Williamsburg and Georgian-inspired estate is a rare offering of history, craftsmanship, character, privacy, and architectural intention. Designed with guidance from Barry Stover, an 18th-century historian who studied under renowned architect Edwin Brumbaugh, the residence reflects a deep appreciation for 18th-century American design. From the cedar shake roof, wood siding, fieldstone exterior, and stone believed to have been sourced from a Chestnut Hill quarry, to the custom millwork, antique-inspired hardware, Pella windows, black-and-white marble foyer, and traditional butter plaster walls found in many of the rooms, every detail was thoughtfully considered. Inside, over 5,200 square feet unfold through beautifully crafted living spaces filled with warmth, authenticity, and timeless detail. The grand stair hall welcomes guests with a dramatic custom staircase, period lantern fixture, marble flooring, and elegant millwork. The formal living room offers a refined entertaining space with a marble fireplace, large windows, and views of the grounds. The formal dining room is designed for true celebration, with extensive built-ins, cabinet lighting, a wired candle-style chandelier, fireplace, and space to gather beautifully on a grand scale. The heart of the home is the remarkable hearth room and tavern-inspired gathering space, intentionally inspired by Colonial Williamsburg and Christiana Campbell’s Tavern. Massive hand-hewn beams, a brick hearth, period cooking implements, and a beehive oven create an unforgettable atmosphere. This is not simply a family room. It is a place meant for conversation, warmth, hospitality, and connection. The gourmet country kitchen blends historic charm with serious culinary function, featuring soapstone counters, pine floors, custom cabinetry, a Garland commercial-grade range with salamander broiler, Sub-Zero refrigeration, Miele dishwasher, trash compactor, multiple sinks, and three warming drawers. It is a kitchen created for someone who truly loves to cook, entertain, and gather. The richly paneled office/library offers a private retreat with cherry paneling, custom built-ins, fireplace, and Delft tile detail. Upstairs, the primary suite continues the home’s historic character with a fireplace, sitting area, marble details, generous storage, a cedar closet, and an original dumbwaiter designed specifically to transport firewood to the second floor. Secondary bedrooms offer comfortable accommodations, including additional built-ins and thoughtful storage. The lower level adds another unforgettable chapter, with a European-inspired wine cellar featuring custom masonry, brick arches, tasting space, and capacity for approximately 565 bottles. The nearby recreation and billiards areas provide additional space for entertaining, and a unique connection from the garage area offers practical access for wine storage. Outside, the estate setting is equally special, with mature landscaping, boxwoods, courtyard gardens, stone walkways, exterior sprinkler system, garden statuary, spa/plunge pool, and outdoor entertaining areas. Nearby Crossways Preserve and toward the Green Ribbon Trail in Lower Gwynedd. The property also includes a potting shed, tool shed, separate wood shed beyond the spa, attached two-car garage, detached two-car garage, and unfinished spaces above the garages offering future possibilities, subject to township approvals. This is a home of substance, history, and soul. For the buyer seeking authenticity, craftsmanship, privacy, and a truly one-of-a-kind estate, this remarkable Williamsburg-inspired residence offers an opportunity that cannot be duplicated....
