About This Property
The strength and character of this property is unmatched. 49,000
Glen Gery Danish Blend bricks, a brick herringbone walkway, and 2x6
construction with floors built on 12-inch centers are the
foundation for this Georgian colonial. Built on 14.52 acres of
conservation land and backed by a professional survey & township
approval for a 2-acre building envelope within, the property forges
the possibility for a family compound. Surrounding neighbors also
focus on preservation, providing a view of 100+ acres across two
streets of conservation land. A secure gated grand entryway with
all brick wing walls and Olde World Philadelphia cobblestone leads
up a winding drive with sugar maples planted equidistant from one
another to create a stately welcome to the Idlewild South property.
There is an abundance of health in the land and soil: an orchard of
40+ mature apple, pear, and peach trees; a pond with significant
water life, and rich land in the rear of the property with 650 feet
of deep greenery and thick woods abutting High Road.
Bluestone patio with a separate private tiered pool and newly
renovated pool house WITH FULL BATH provide a decadent escape at
the rear of the property. With this much intensity and detail
placed in the exterior alone, one can only imagine the interior
offerings of the home, both mechanically and aesthetically.
Entry through the columned front portico to the grand foyer,
your vision lifts from the decadent marble radiant heat flooring to
the vaulted ceilings and expands to take in the custom millwork.
The main level is honored with sunlit rooms throughout and the
gleaming natural wood floors, marble and wood mantles, molding, and
custom ceilings are the beneficiaries making for a lively home
suitable for entertaining. Your caterer will thank you for
providing them 'best in class' accommodations, including a 6-burner
Viking range, Subzero refrigeration, double self-cleaning ovens,
and an oversized granite island for the perfect presentation. You
will appreciate the custom cherry cabinetry, two spacious pantries,
and gleaming hardwood flooring. The Morning Room is the perfect
accompaniment to this welcoming kitchen with its unique exposed
brick wall, wainscoting, and Italian tumbled marble flooring. For
more formal or romantic affairs, the ambience of the elegant Dining
Room with ornate tray ceiling, custom millwork, and a wood burning
fireplace with marble mantle adds just the right lush tone to any
evening. The formal Living Room is the perfect setting for after
dinner lively conversation while the adjoining Study is a
resplendent space for bourbon and cigar pairings and enticing
debate. The younger set will enjoy games in the Family Room and end
their evening through the French doors onto the bluestone patio and
perhaps a late night swim & hot tub. The brick pool house is one of
the most recent renovations with well chosen features and
conveniences. Gaze upward to your hearts content as no light
pollution is present to distract you from admiring the next falling
star. Tranquility and peacefulness permeate this setting from
sunrise to moonrise and it is breathtaking in its depth and
simplicity all at once. Once sated and ready for rest, the upper
level of this home offers an Owner's Suite with expansive private
balcony overseeing the koi pond, orchard, and spectacular long
distance views. With three additional bedrooms on the upper level
all with hardwood flooring, two share a full bath while one
provides a private full bath. The master en suite features raised
panel wainscoting, tray ceiling, marble flooring, double
vanity, dentil molding, radiant heat floors, and a separated
jacuzzi tub and shower. When guests must regrettably say
their evening goodbyes, a covered walkway leads to the
detached 3-car garage & drive. Please request a complete list
of improvements that the current stewards have selected with the
utmost care & a focus on richness & meticulous detail.
