About This Home

As of September 2025

A Rare Opportunity to Own a Piece of Main Line History - Tucked away on the edge of Radnor Township, this remarkable property offers the rare chance to own a true piece of local history. Originally built in the 1700s, the home was expanded in 1886 to serve as the first clubhouse for the newly established Radnor Hunt. Imagine waking up to the tranquil vistas of a conserved front field, protected by a Land Conservation Easement from the Radnor Conservancy. This extraordinary property offers the ultimate blend of secluded natural beauty and convenient access to the Main Line. From the porch, savor the peaceful surroundings while enjoying the benefits of living near the highly-regarded Radnor Township schools, downtown Bryn Mawr's charming shops and restaurants, and easy access to the wider region. Architectural highlights from the Radnor Hunt era remain, including two fireplaces, one of which is a stunning 14-foot stone fireplace designed by renowned architects Frank Furness and Allen Evans, now the dramatic centerpiece of the main living space. The updated kitchen blends historic charm with modern convenience. With six bedrooms and a flexible layout, the home offers room to grow. The first floor includes a bedroom (currently used as an office/library) with a full bath and separate entrance; perfect for guests or multigenerational living. The second floor features three bedrooms and one-and-a-half baths, while the third floor includes two additional bedrooms and a full bath. Additional features include rooftop solar panels that preheat well water before it reaches the water heater, offering energy savings and sustainability. If you're seeking character, acreage, and timeless charm in a premier location, this one-of-a-kind property is not to be missed.
