Its soaring ceilings, sun-drenched rooms, and a seamless flow between indoor and outdoor spaces create an inviting, one-of-a-kind home. Thoughtfully designed in 1956 by a premier Philadelphia architectural firm, Carroll, Grisdale & Van Alen, on nearly two acres in Penn Valley, it presents a rare opportunity to own a piece of architectural history. The house wraps around a beautiful flagstone courtyard and pool, with a pool house to complete the 4th wall.
