Property Description
Discover the magic of the House at Hickory Hill! Built as a summer estate circa 1928, this picturesque hilltop setting was chosen to capture cooling summer breezes, offering an escape from the heat, hustle and bustle of summer in 1920's Philadelphia. Here at Hickory Hill, family and friends could relax, rejuvenate and swim in the nearby spring-fed pond at Martins Dam. Only available due to an out-of-state relocation, this piece of Main Line history can now be a beautiful part of your legacy. The period architecture of this stone home reminds us of eras past with warm, cozy spaces, thick stone walls, rich hardwood floors and exceptional mill-work. With original hardware, doors and windows, the history and character of this special home have been preserved. The farmhouse kitchen is warm and inviting, but the star of the show is the breakfast room. With antique brick flooring, exposed stone and a wall of windows, you'll be happy to wake to this treasure every morning! The generously proportioned living and dining rooms offer great spaces for comfortable living, easily accommodating today's lifestyles. Light a fire and cozy-up in the living room, or in warmer weather, flow through either of two sets of French doors (with original beveled glass!) to the side porch. With its slate flooring, bead-board ceiling and exposed stone wall, the side porch is truly an oasis where you'll feel the magic of this 1.58 acre property, with graceful, mature trees and perennial gardens in bloom. Inside, the handsome center hall turned-staircase beckons to the second floor, with three large bedrooms including a king-size master bedroom, and a shared full bath in the hall. (The generous proportions of the master bedroom offer the option for a new master bath and walk-in closets ? unheard of luxuries in 1928!) On your way to the third floor, you'll stop to admire the sunny window and lovely built-ins on the landing, before finding two more generously sized bedrooms (one currently used as a study), and the second full bath. Thick stone walls and a whole-house fan cool this home on hot summer days, and those same stone walls provide wonderful insulation from the cold. Schedule your appointment today, and experience the magic of Hickory Hill! See virtual tour link for more photos!
