About this home
The Hedges (c. 1901) — A Historic Estate on Philadelphia’s Main Line. Welcome to The Hedges, a distinguished turn-of-the-century estate set in the heart of Bryn Mawr on Philadelphia’s prestigious Main Line. Dating to approximately 1901 and surrounded by mature, picturesque grounds, this remarkable 8-bedroom, 4.5-bath residence offers the increasingly rare opportunity to own a home rich in history, architectural character and craftsmanship while enjoying the space and versatility desired for modern living.
From the moment you approach the brick-paved entrance beneath the graceful canopy of a magnificent weeping willow, The Hedges makes an unforgettable impression. Step inside the custom-tiled foyer, where an impressive extra-wide staircase introduces the scale and character found throughout the home. The grand living room is filled with natural light from floor-to-ceiling doors overlooking both the front grounds and rear patio. Rich custom wood beams span the ceiling, while the brick-faced fireplace creates a dramatic focal point and showcases the craftsmanship of another era. The formal dining room, anchored by its own fireplace, provides an extraordinary setting for intimate dinners, holidays and large gatherings. Nearby, the dedicated library feels as though it belongs in a classic Main Line estate, with custom floor-to-ceiling bookshelves and a built-in window seat overlooking the grounds—the perfect place to read, work or simply enjoy a quiet afternoon. The kitchen combines traditional character with modern functionality and features granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, double wall ovens, generous cabinetry and a large pantry. It flows naturally into the light-filled family room, with high vaulted ceilings. A beautifully appointed powder room completes the main level with custom wallpaper and a distinctive antique vanity. Upstairs, the expansive primary suite is a true retreat, generously proportioned to accommodate a king-size bed as well as a separate sitting area. The ensuite bath is exceptionally unique, with its own fireplace alongside a steam shower, soaking tub, bidet and antique vanity. The second-floor landing offers yet another charming window seat overlooking the grounds and an open area that provides additional space to showcase art or furnishings. Three additional generously sized bedrooms, two ensuite baths and a spacious laundry room complete this level.
Continue to the third floor and discover another entire level of possibilities. Four versatile rooms can accommodate additional bedrooms, private home offices, creative studios, guest quarters or whatever best suits your lifestyle. This floor also includes a full bath, dedicated craft room, walk-in attic storage and a walk-in cedar closet—an extraordinary amount of flexible space rarely found in homes of this era. Outside, the brick-paved rear patio creates a beautiful extension of the home and an inviting setting for entertaining, dining outdoors or enjoying peaceful evenings surrounded by mature greenery. The home is supported by a whole home generator, so you never miss a beat. The oversized driveway also provides parking for eight or more vehicles, making large gatherings effortless. And then there is the location. The Hedges is situated in Bryn Mawr, in the heart of Philadelphia’s storied Main Line, an area celebrated for its historic estates, tree-lined surroundings, renowned educational institutions and exceptional access to both suburban amenities and Center City Philadelphia. Bryn Mawr College and Rosemont College are nearby, with Villanova University just minutes away. Ashbridge Park, the shops and restaurants of Bryn Mawr, and the boutiques, dining and amenities of Suburban Square are all within easy reach, while Center City Philadelphia is approximately a 30-minute drive away. Showings will start Sunday the 20th with an Open House from 1-3 p.m....
