With its exceptional architectural pedigree and historic charm, this is truly one of the Main Line’s legacy properties.Every detail of this home was crafted with intention: arched doorways, softly rounded transitions, barn doors, random-width hardwood floors, dentil molding, and inset chair rails all speak to its original artistry.
