Property Description
An original 1740 "thumbprint grant" by King George II established the boundaries of this historic, one-of-a-kind property. Set on 1.6 park-like acres, the original house dates to 1700's, with updates added throughout the years, in addition to a large, original bank barn. It has been meticulously and lovingly renovated and restored over the last 30 years by the current owners. The impeccably-maintained house offers 5 bedrooms, 2 full and 1 half baths, and is replete with original architectural details. Deep windowsills, random width hardwood flooring, woodwork, built-ins and original hardware can be found throughout. The front entry foyer was the original pottery store for the property and includes a coat closet and powder room. The eat-in kitchen will transport you to a rustic Provence cottage with large island that features handmade cabinets, Gaggenau stove top, double full size ovens, hand-hewn beams, handmade tile and the adjoining family room features the fabulous, original wood burning fireplace. This floor also includes a step-down dining room and large living room. The second floor owners suite was renovated in 2013 and features extensive built-ins, walk-in closet and newer bath. Two additional bedrooms and a full hall bath complete the second floor. The third floor offers another two bedrooms. A brick patio off of the rear of the home is a great space to relax and admire the grounds. The charming bank barn could be transformed into the perfect party barn for entertaining family and friends. This unique property is in a locale convenient to local shopping and dining in Flourtown, the turnpike, major roads and Fort Washington State Park.
