Description
Once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own an exceptionally designed mid-century modern retreat thoughtfully sited on 6.5 private acres overlooking Skippack Valley. Embracing the style and vision of Frank Lloyd Wright, architect Walter Wisznia artfully positioned this single-level sanctuary for optimal views of the landscape and to coexist with the surrounding natural beauty. Both the home and iconic pool house skillfully bring the outdoors in through floor-to-ceiling expanses of glass. The property is enhanced by a magazine-worthy pool, curved pergola, Japanese-inspired grounds and contemporary aesthetic. Beautifully updated and reverently maintained, this 5, 369-square-foot residence is the ideal destination for architecture buffs and those with a passion for indoor-outdoor living and entertaining. The homes living room is a showstopper featuring a double-pitched roof lined with clerestory windows, black and white marble floors, and mid-century-appropriate natural materials, including swaths of stacked stone and wood details in teak, mahogany, cedar, and oak. Relax and entertain in the open-plan living and dining rooms, naturally divided by a two-sided fireplace, offering an exceptional space for entertaining complete with an adjacent oversized bar lounge and breathtaking views. The kitchen impresses with sleek Poggenpohl cabinetry, granite countertops, and upscale Miele appliances. Elegant living and entertaining continue in the outdoor spaces, where two levels of expansive flagstone patios stretch to the resort-sized swimming pool and curved pergola. Imagine peaceful afternoons and evenings spent surrounded by meticulously tended landscaping, large lawns, a rock garden and never-ending Skippack Valley vistas. The 800-square-foot temperature-controlled pool house does double-duty as a party room or guest house complete with a large circular wet bar, full bathroom, changing room, and rear deck with hot tub. The main home's luxurious accommodations begin with a private and sprawling owner's suite featuring a king-size bedroom, a skylit ensuite spa bathroom with a 12-piece Kohler luxury shower system, and rows of generous closet space, including a custom walk-in. The attached bonus room is ideal as a gym, media room, or private office with stained glass windows. Two large secondary bedrooms and a full hall bathroom complete this wing. A second wing of the home includes an additional private bedroom suite with a full bathroom, which is perfect for guests or staff. The massive family room is a perfect gathering spot featuring beamed ceilings, custom built-ins, Knoll Maharam wallcoverings and original leather wallcoverings. A breakfast room with solarium, laundry room, powder room, and oversized storage room complete the beautifully planned layout. Outside a winding driveway, motor court, and five garaged spaces provide plenty of parking for car buffs, while the stone faade and walls of glass reinforce the midcentury style of this sophisticated hideaway. The tranquil location is surrounded by national and state parks, golf courses, and numerous local shopping centers. King of Prussia and Philadelphia are within easy reach, and New York City is just two hours away.For more details:
