A few comments from the seller -
Bryn Avon is the name a Welsh friend suggested for our home at 112 Lansdowne Court. Bryn is Welsh for mountain ( Hartz). Avon is Welsh for River (Shannon).

We purchased the home from the owner of a security firm. He entirely refurbished the house that had been owned by Dr. Robert Kempner, famous for his work at the Nuremberg trials at the end of WWII.

We enjoyed all the seasons in our house on the Court. The privacy afforded by the trees as well as the native animals gave us the feeling of the country while we were so close to the city. The Darby Creek nearby provided water sounds from the stream. The Lansdowne train station designed by Frank Furness

was close for our easy access to Philadelphia.

Our home was perfect for us as we enjoyed entertaining as well as the privacy Lansdowne Court insured.
