About This Home
As of May 2023Escape to your own private, vacaton-like wooded oasis in Bryn Mawr. Up a long driveway this award winning mid century modern gem sits atop almost 2 acres of seclusion with a private reserve behind. Natural light abounds with views of nature out every floor to ceiling window and strategically placed transom windows. Designed by renowned architect P.T. Astore this home received a national award for residential design in 1961. With its concrete walls, original concrete floors under the carpet, cedar plank ceilings, authentic glass shower tile and an open kitchen/dining/living area concept this modern masterpiece is truly one of a kind. The symmetrical design allows a variety of functions for the rooms as well- whether one needs multiple offices, 4 bedrooms, a laundry room, etc., the choice is yours. Outside one can simply relax on the patio enjoying the sound of the trickling pond as you watch the array of birds that fly by and maybe even see some deer. This home has been meticulously maintained and improved with all new windows and custom floor to ceiling sliding doors, dual zone gas heat and air, a detached car port plus storage shed. Truly a secluded setting yet minutes from trains to commute to both Center City or NYC, Suburban Square, Universities, and loads of restaurants and shops are a short drive away, allowing the best of both worlds- serenity and convenience.
