About this House

OPEN HOUSE SUNDAY JULY 9 from 1-3!!! Renowned Architect’s Design in Rydal. The energy is nice and welcoming from the front to back entry which connects the original 1900s structure to the contemporary addition. Then step out to the studio/ inlaw cottage building with all the charm imaginable. A compound in its own right, the design connects all the elements into one High Performance House. Natural Hues, Volume Ceilings and Expansive Windows take the senses on a journey to many places, the flow is exceptional. Without leaving this quiet enclave, located on a tree lined street one would not know this is “in town”. The land behind is the estate the original house was part of, used as a children's gymnasium long ago. Repurposing never had so much fun! Comprising 4 bedrooms and 4 full baths total, the rooms are large and the natural slate and wood compliment soaring ceilings. Exit the living room and twenty steps later the studio/ cottage door is right there. Shortest commute ever. The 3 fireplaces lend ambiance to a super engineered and insulated structure, your awareness is solely of the ease and comfort of this place. The success of this house is enhanced by the fact that it has Green Design components everywhere. Literally a moment's drive to all the activities of Abington and Jenkintown with access to both the city and the suburbs by public or private transportation. Penn State campus and Abington Hospital are close by. You feel a world away. Make sure to check out the virtual tour!!
