Project Description

Situated on Philadelphia's prestigious Main Line, this expansive estate designed by renowned architect Fred Bissinger blends old-world charm with contemporary luxury. The exterior is a breathtaking study in craftsmanship, featuring intricate stonework, handcrafted iron accents, a timeless slate roof, and a grand custom mahogany door. These details set the stage for a home where every corner reflects a dedication to artistry and architectural heritage.

Inside, the estate’s design echoes the decorative sophistication of the exterior. The library, a nod to classic craftsmanship, continues the mahogany motif with custom-built shelving and rich inlaid paneled walls. The attention to detail extends throughout the home, with Rococo embellishments in common areas, old-world plaster moldings, and lush, upholstered wallpaper, all accented by intricate millwork. This masterfully executed millwork elevates each room, creating a timeless yet unique ambiance.

The meticulously designed outdoor spaces offer a serene escape, including a beautifully crafted patio with a custom-designed pool and hot tub. A luxurious pool house, combining classic and modern elements, complements the main estate. For entertaining, a unique indoor-outdoor bar and dining area provide the perfect setting, sheltered under a pergola crafted from structural rafters and roof battens. This dual-purpose space serves as both a comfortable retreat and an elegant venue for gatherings, bringing the best of indoor and outdoor living together.
