1426 Rose Glen Rd, Gladwyne, PA 19035

Breathe. This idyllic, peaceful setting will have you sinking back into a luxurious version of yesteryear each and every time you come home to it. The iconic Gladwyne Water Wheel house, as it has come to be known, with its gurgling creek, is ready to be lovingly turned over to its next owner. The 4-bedroom 4.5 bath home exudes a quiet elegance and brings a different personality to each season. Along with its stone outbuildings and oversized 3-car stone garage, this very special property, is just minutes from center city Philadelphia, and is right across the road from Rolling Hill Park where you can enjoy miles of scenic walking trails, a beloved dog park as well as nearby access to the Bridlewild Trails. The front section of the home, built in 1802 for two mill worker families, has had two major additions over the years including a magnificent glass ceiling family room where you'll be mesmerized by the moon and first snow fall. Exposed stone walls and original architectural details have been refreshed with classic elegant design by its current owners. Details include reeded millwork, refinished random width hardwood floors, mahogany sills, 100-year-old wormy chestnut custom cabinetry, poured concrete and french limestone counters in kitchen, commercial Wolf cooking niche, deep copper sink, heated blue stone floors, deep window sills, Portuguese tile floors, six fireplaces, a charming second floor patio, newer cedar roof, second floor laundry, whole house generator and so many more exciting features. The outdoors is a rustic oasis with multiple patios, gas lanterns, cobblestone paths, an oversized 3-car garage, studio/gym, "she shed" and storage shed. Versatile spaces with several WFH possibilities in the main house or out buildings. And, of course, the town of Gladwyne with its wonderful shops and services, is just a couple of minutes down the road. The perfect opportunity for someone who wants convenience but appreciates something different.
