A Rare Opportunity! This completely restored and enhanced Durham and Irvine home sits on a perfect acre in Pembroke Estates, one of the Main Line's most sought after neighborhoods. Originating out of Walter Durham's earliest work, which was his most stylized, this prized home evokes the spirit of an English farmhouse. The restoration included all bathrooms, new windows, electric and plumbing as well as all decorative surfaces. The first floor features such stand-outs as the family kitchen with fireplace, built-in bookshelves and window seats; handsome mud room entrance; a graceful and generously proportioned front hall; an over sized butler's pantry and bar; and the sun room with custom built-ins for entertaining. The second floor offers four bedrooms with three baths. The master has a beautiful master bath with twin skylights and his and hers walk-in closets. The third floor has a one or two bedroom suite with full bathroom and two attics for storage and mechanicals. The lower level is finished with a backgammon niche, and flexible space for entertainment, video games, movies and music. There is a full bath and storage including wine and custom silver cabinets. Finally there is direct access to the attached two-car garage. This property sits on a magnificent lot. Elevated from Gatcombe Road, the property features a half moon driveway and spur to the 2-car garage. The driveway was repaved in 2014 and enjoys Belgium block curbing, and room for two cars abreast in almost its entirety. The Landscaping is extraordinary as originally specified by Walter Durham. It includes a pool (redone 2010), terraced lawns and walled garden off the Kitchen with outdoor dining. To make arrangements to visit this exceptional property, please contact the listing agent.
