Description

Nestled beside Rydal’s famed mini-castle and down a secluded long winding drive, surrounded by woodland and mature landscaping is this this sophisticated home designed by well renowned architect Horace Trumbauer in 1925. This 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom, 2-half bath, stone house masterpiece is strategically set on the .75 acres of lush landscaping and surrounded by other European designed houses that make you feel like you’ve been transported to Europe. Upon entering through the hand-cut stone entrance, you are welcomed by a receiving foyer with a crystal chandelier, formal staircase and beautiful oak molding. A convenient ½ bath is located off this room. The foyer is flanked by a formal living room adorned with warm-toned oak coffered ceiling beams, wainscoting and a hand-cut stone fireplace surround. The oversized windows and French doors flood the room with sunlight and gorgeous exterior views from every angle. The built-in bookcases add to the sophistication of this stunning room that sets the stage for chilly spring days or snowy nights in front of the fireplace. The French doors lead to a spacious covered patio that is perfect as an expansive entertaining area with equally gorgeous garden views. The dining room, also flanking the foyer entrance, is graced by yet another crystal chandler, extensive wainscoting, leaded glass French doors and an elegant built-in china closet. This bright, light-filled room is spacious and perfect for family gatherings and entertaining. The charming kitchen has stainless-steel appliances, induction stove, granite countertops and mercer tile floor. The eat-in kitchen area is a great use of space with built-in banquette seating and additional cupboards for storage.

The main staircase leads to a sunlit ½ landing and then to the second floor.

The second and third bedroom also have on suite bathrooms adorned with tile and Carrara marble, plenty of closet space and beautiful exterior views. There is currently a small study room that was originally a fourth bedroom.

    "Rydal is a safe area with plenty of friendly neighbors that will say “hello” or stop to chat with you when you are outdoors jogging, walking the dogs or just working on your flower beds. It has hills, lots of green spaces and many beautiful stone houses. But not so many sidewalks. Still, quite walkable because it’s a quiet neighborhood. "
