Description
Welcome to 1539 Hampton Rd. This stunning historic Greek Revival Colonial, sited on almost two acres in the best neighborhood in Rydal. This home was the site for the Ogontz School for Girls with a guest house designed by famed architect Horace Traumbauer. Situated on a multi-terraced landscape with extraordinary mature trees and beautiful gardens, the house features seven rooms on the first floor for people to live a luxurious and civilized life. From the circular drive, step into the formal entry that runs front to back and leads, by French doors, to an expansive outdoor terrace, overlooking a fountain and pool. To the right of the foyer is the formal living room, with French doors, and fireplace. The welcoming sunroom, with fireplace and windows on three sides, is reached from the living room. The formal dining room with fireplace and floor-to-ceiling bay window sits to the left of the foyer. Beyond the dining room is the spacious kitchen with high-end appliances and beautiful arched windows. Beyond the kitchen is the casual family room which leads to a covered porch and to the garage-end of the driveway. Completing the first floor are two powder rooms (one at the front door and one off the family room), an office/den at the front of the house, an ample coat closet, and the start of the stunning turned staircase to the second floor. On the second floor, you will find a beautiful primary suite with an outfitted dressing room and a large bath with whirlpool tub and separate shower. There are four more bedrooms and three more bathrooms on the second floor, all are spacious and bright. There is also a screening room for movies and video games, and a laundry area conveniently located near the bedrooms. A door in the second floor landing leads to the third floor space that could serve a multitude of uses, from guest room, to office, to exercise space, or studio. Across the driveway from the first floor family room and covered porch is a four-car garage with attached living space .

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAttending Abington was one of the most formative and valuable experiences of my life. It’s easy to overlook how special a public school can be until you realize how much it shaped who you became. This school didn’t just provide a solid academic foundation—it fostered independence, confidence, and curiosity.The teachers were deeply invested in their students, not just academically but personally. They challenged us to think critically, to speak clearly, and to take ownership of our growth. There was a sense that the faculty truly cared about preparing students for the real world, not just helping them pass exams.Equally important was the environment. The student body was diverse, grounded, and real. It wasn’t an artificial bubble—it reflected life. That experience taught resilience, perspective, and how to connect with people from all backgrounds.Looking back, I can confidently say this school played a major role in my success, both professionally and personally. It gave me the tools, discipline, and mindset to navigate the world effectively. I’m genuinely grateful for the education and experience I received here, and I would strongly recommend it to any student or parent looking for a place that develops capable, thoughtful, and well-prepared young adults.Parent Review3mo ago - Abington Junior High School

7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThe school is fine. The recent reviews are obviously maniplulative to sway voters. The middle school is not a horrible atmosphere for learning according to my daughter. She does not go full time but I am sure if it was so bad, she would also be affected. I think 99% of the complaints are vague and a serious lack of gratitude at play. As an immigrant I have attended schools worst off and it did/does not affect out education! I can understand a school needing repairs and wanting updates. But a school does not cost quarter or a billion dollars to build!!! The idea of a new school is about keeping up appearances.Parent Review1y ago
