Gorgeous English Manor
Light-filled and airy turn-of-the-last-century country home designed by the world-renowned architect and master landscape artist Wilson Eyre at the height of his career in 1904.Eyre, who founded House and Garden Magazine and designed the awe-inspiring Benjamin Franklin Parkway, inspired a legion of imitators, and provided a much-needed classic contrast to the medieval design whimsy of Frank Furness, another popular architect of the period.
Think of the film Philadelphia Story, starring Katherine Hepburn, and you will have a glimpse of the lifestyle of the original owners of this magnificent home, who christened it Windybrow.
Gorgeous wooded grounds provide an abundance of privacy. Walk to trains, shopping, restaurants, schools, and entertainment in the lovely historic walk-able town of Wayne.
Quick access to all major roadways to downtown Philadelphia and the airport adds up to location, location, location. Easy commute to New York and Washington DC.
Impeccable maintenance and thoughtful updating including zoned central air and heating have created a home that out-classes the best of new homes with every modern amenity, while retaining the unimpeachable charm of a true original.
