Property Description
Rare opportunity to own an architecturally significant mid-century home in the sought-after Rydal neighborhood. Visually stunning and remarkably well-preserved, this true mid-century modern classic was designed by noted Philadelphia architect Armand Carroll. Built in 1956, the property harmoniously blends exceptional architecture, thoughtful landscape design, original period details, and carefully curated modern updates. The homes seamless connection between interior and exterior spaces is immediately evident, with dramatic floor-to-ceiling, wall-to-wall windows flooding the living spaces with natural light and framing breathtaking views of the surrounding grounds. Enter through the welcoming foyer, highlighted by an exposed brick wall, into the expansive great room featuring dual exposed brick fireplaces and incredible views of the private setting beyond. The adjacent dining room opens through French doors to the upper patio, creating an effortless indoor-outdoor flow ideal for entertaining. The updated kitchen is both stylish and functional, featuring solid maple floors, custom cherry cabinetry, black galaxy granite countertops, and high-end appliances, including a Bosch dishwasher and Viking gas range. The main level offers a spacious primary suite with refinished parquet floors, a beautifully updated bath with quartz countertops and double vanity, and a dressing room with built-in closets. Two additional generously sized bedrooms, an updated hall bath, and a powder room complete this level. The lower level offers exceptional additional living space, including a large family room with direct access to the lower patio and pool area, creating the perfect extension of the homes entertaining spaces. A fourth bedroom with en-suite bath provides an ideal guest or in-law suite, while the laundry area and built-in storage add convenience and functionality. The exterior setting is equally impressive, featuring multi-level bluestone patios, a recently resurfaced in-ground pool, mature plantings, lush landscaping, and an exceptionally private, park-like setting. Classic natural materialsbrick, stone, and woodcombine to create a timeless aesthetic that perfectly complements the surrounding wooded landscape. Recent improvements include a full roof replacement with a 25-year warranty (2024), newer air conditioning unit, upgraded electrical service, and new hard-surface flooring throughout the lower level. Offering a rare combination of serenity, privacy, and convenience, this exceptional property is located in the highly regarded Abington School District, with easy access to Center City Philadelphia and just minutes from parks, restaurants, and shopping.
