Property Description

Once-in-a-Lifetime Opportunity to Own a Piece of Rydal History. Don't miss your chance to own this truly unique and charming carriage house, once part of a historic estate—one of Rydal's most distinguished properties. Nestled on a lush one-acre lot planted with specimen trees and curated landscaping, the grounds feel like your own private arboretum. Originally serving as a working carriage house, then the caretaker's residence, later a home for local schoolteachers, and most recently an artist's studio, this home is rich with history and character. The current owner—an artist—has lovingly restored the property, preserving its architectural integrity while thoughtfully integrating modern comforts.
Enter through the original carriage hall, now transformed into a dramatic great room featuring heated concrete floors, soaring vaulted ceilings, and skylights that flood the space with natural light. An open staircase ascends to the second floor, adding to the loft-like feel. Adjacent to this space are the original living quarters, showcasing hardwood floors throughout and timeless craftsmanship. The former foyer now serves as a stylish home office, while the cozy living room—with its handsome original staircase—is ideal for reading or movie nights. Both rooms open to a magnificent covered porch framed by stone arches and columns—perfect for enjoying morning coffee or evening wine. The kitchen offers a smart, efficient layout with under-cabinet lighting, a tiled backsplash, updated flooring and lighting, and a brand-new dishwasher. A large pantry and separate laundry area are conveniently located just off the kitchen. Upstairs, you'll find two generously sized bedrooms with ample closets and abundant natural light. The newly renovated hall bathroom is beautifully appointed with high-quality finishes. A small loft space and a large hall closet add flexibility and storage. Outside, the expansive yard is a serene oasis featuring a circular sun garden, a tranquil shade garden, and a charming picnic pavilion—ideal for entertaining or quiet relaxation. Two vintage sheds provide additional storage for gardening tools and outdoor essentials.
Extensive recent updates include: Completely renovated great room with new HVAC, heated floors, skylights, walls, and lighting, New roof and gutters, Updated electric, New windows, Remodeled bathroom, Refreshed kitchen and Efficient mini-split A/C systems. Prime Location: Walk to the train for easy access to Center City or the airport. Close to Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Target, and a variety of dining and shopping options. Quick car commute to the city. Enjoy the benefits of highly rated public and private schools, and take advantage of Abington Township's renowned park system, libraries, and community pools. This is not just a home—it's a rare opportunity to own a piece of local history in an unbeatable location.
