Property Description
Both historic treasure & modern beauty, this one-of-a-kind home offers the best of both worlds. Originally part of the Sharp Estate & built by one of Berwyn's founding families in the 1800s, this cherished home's current owners have been the stewards of major improvements to transform "Breeze Hill" into its current spectacular state. Set on 1.3+ acres of lush private grounds, steps from the Sharp's Woods Nature Preserve, the property offers a swimming pool with stone waterfall, 4-car garage/carriage house with a top floor music studio space, a stone springhouse ideal for a 's clubhouse, & an expansive estate home. The distinctive 3-story interior retains numerous special features of its era, including original diamond-paned windows, deep windowsills created by the 18" solid stone walls, 5 fireplaces, & detailed moldings & millwork, all blended with the finest modern luxuries. A marble entry foyer welcomes you into this fabulous family home & leads into a lovely study with a gas fireplace, a large sunny living room that invites relaxation around the corner fireplace, & an elegant dining room for festive holiday gatherings. Among the noteworthy "too many to mention" upgrades are a 2010 family room addition designed to blend seamlessly with the original stone exterior. Graced by rich wood floors, a gas fireplace, vintage repurposed millwork & 5 hidden 'in-wall' speakers, family movie nights & game day celebrations are a real treat. The stunning renovated gourmet kitchen is another favorite gathering spot with custom cabinets, granite counters, 4 burner plus griddle Wolf range, Kitchenaid Architect II series refrigerator, copper farmhouse sink, handcrafted solid copper/brass range hood, & a wood-burning fireplace. Upstairs, several rooms were combined to create a vast master bedroom suite complete with 4 huge closets, & an private spa bath with double vanity, whirlpool tub & separate shower. Other significant enhancements include a new roof (2014), a new gas boiler (2015), updated electrical (1997/2015), new water heaters (2012/2015), & 3 heat pumps (2012/2015) providing additional zoned heat plus central air conditioning. Further highlights of this home are a laundry/mudroom off the kitchen, 4 BRs & 3 full baths on the 2nd floor, & a guest room with en-suite bath, & 2 bonus rooms (perhaps an au-pair suite?) on the 3rd level. All in an excellent location in the acclaimed T/E school district, near the Upper Main Line Y, shops, restaurants & Berwyn train.
