About This Property
Presenting "The Castle House," offered for the first time since the
early 1960's. Originally built in 1931 by a family who wanted to
replicate a castle that they stayed at in Normandy, France, this 3
bedroom, 3 full and 1 half bath home is a rare piece of artwork.
The architectural details are exquisite and the structure is strong
enough to withstand a long battle. One would describe this house as
impressive, intriguing, romantic, charming, and magically ornate.
The finer details include: Curved stone walls, drawbridge-like
walkway over the moat to the front door, beautiful arched walls,
spiral staircases, decorative hammered iron railings and door
hardware, handcrafted garden stone walls and gorgeous gazebo garden
with fish pond, slate patios, walkways and steps, French doors that
open to Juliet balconies, and gorgeous wide plank wood floors. From
the lower side door as you climb the tower stairs you will reach
the first level where you will find your dining room with built-in
closet and shelves, French doors allowing plenty of sunlight and
fresh air as well as access to your gazebo and patio for
entertaining. Also on this level is your kitchen, sitting room and
a full bath. The next level has the grand living room with custom
wood paneling, built in custom shelving, fireplace, half bath and
the main entrance door to your lovely gardens. The next two upper
levels consist of 3 bedrooms and 2 more full baths. The master
bedroom at the top of the castle has a very impressive high vaulted
ceiling. Attached 2-car oversized garage, multiple tiered gardens
that are easy to maintain, serene setting surrounded by mature
vegetation, cobblestone driveway, and true craftsmanship that is
hard to find. Don't miss your chance to see this one-of-a-kind
Castle in Rydal and be the owners of your very own estate with a
true storybook happy ending! Set up your appointment today! You can
connect easily to city sewer in the street. Offers due Sunday, give
a response date until Tuesday.
