About This Property
Built in 1915 by prominent Philadelphia architect C. Wharton
Churchman, Stone Gables sits on .45 acres, enclosed on
two sides by beautiful stone walls. One of the earliest
examples of the Norman or Cotswold style in the Philadelphia area,
the home is constructed of Wissahickon schist with hand-cut stone
lintels and sills framing the doors and windows. Amazing
craftsmanship and attention to detail are apparent throughout. The
house is graciously proportioned with six bedrooms (most with cedar
closets), three and a half baths, four fireplaces, wonderful high
ceilings, original mahogany doors, quarter-sawn oak and
heart-of-pine floors, and crown moldings. The large dining room is
ideal for entertaining and the living room opens to a spectacular
enclosed porch. A full wall of windows on each side flood this room
with sunlight. Over the years, the owners have made significant
improvements to the house, including the complete renovation of the
large eat-in kitchen and adjoining mudroom-porch, the construction
of a stone walled outdoor patio, the renovation of two bathrooms,
the replacement of all of the storm windows, and the planting of a
natural side garden with native shade plants. The eat-in kitchen
has granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, including a
Bosch dishwasher, a cook s stove, a built-in microwave/convection
oven, a side-by-side refrigerator, and a walk-in pantry. All of the
appliances have been replaced in the last five years. The second
floor includes a very convenient laundry room. The house also has
off-street parking, including a two-car garage. The outdoor space
offers many charming features such as a sunny courtyard with
built-in stone seating, an herb garden, a wall fountain, and a
built-in compass. Ideally located just minutes from the train,
Weaver s Way Coop and Mt. Airy s charming business district.
Hit the trails of the Wissahickon and Carpenter s Woods, both
within a 10-minute walk. This is a stunning house of rare
quality and craftsmanship; you do not want to miss it! (For video-
