About This Property
~FernLedge~ served as the garden center for Frank Furness'
masterpiece known as "Dolobran". Built in 1881, "Dolobran" was the
country estate of Clement A. Griscom. It was designed by Furness in
1881 and altered by him in 1894. FernLedge was the idea of
Griscom's childrenwho wanted Furness to design a summer house and
suggested it be built on the stone footprint of Dolobran's
greenhouse. With a magical terrace , pool and gazebo above,
and a stone-walled flowering rose and iris garden path below, that
blooms from spring through fall and connects the patio to the
garden room just outside of the dining room~s French doors, this
one-of-a-kind home sits back, secluded from the road; its charm
evoking an English garden cottage with a setting that exudes the
feel of living in the Cotswolds, with storybook garden views from
every window and out every doorway.The setting affords the perfect
privacy and is, in short, a true gardener's paradise; connected to
nature and surrounded by beauty. Quiet yet very close to shopping
and the Haverford Station. FernLedge is an oasis for the soul while
close enough for you to handily enjoy the amenities of life on the
Main Line and attractions of the city.One-floor living with three
wings allows for a flexible lifestyle and a forever home where
stages of life and work are easily accommodated by the ability to
re-purpose rooms from nursery, bedrooms, to home office or studio
etc., while the kitchen and dining room remain at the hub.
Presently the home is arranged with a master suite in the north
wing containing a raised bed chamber, master bath, office, sauna
and laundry. With 5 exits that connect to the outdoors there is an
easy flow that invites access to the garden rooms and terrace as
well as outdoor dining and entertaining on the breakfast deck,
patio and thru the double doors of the formal dining room. Here is
