3+Story,Detached, Tudor - FORT WASHINGTON, PA HAWKSWELL a.k.a. Copernicus Society of America A rare opportunity to own a 1905 Gothic Revival inspired English Arts and Crafts manor home in Upper Dublin Township. Designed by Wilson Eyre, Jr., one can peer out every window and see spectacular views. The house and its 4.3-acre lot are situated on Camp Hill and next to 22 acres of Wissahickon Valley Watershed open space. Other mansions built for the Philadelphia gentry dot Camp Hill. The design of the house is reminiscent in architectural style to many of the homes found near Rose Valley and Chestnut Hill. The exterior is Medieval inspired, with numerous arches, over hanging rooflines and the brick, stone, timber combination. Inside you find breath-taking details by master craftsman: extensive moldings, pocketed arched doors, built in cabinetry, detailed fireplace mantels, and hand hewn beamed ceilings, just to name a few. The rooms are all oversized with 15' ceilings, many graced with crown molding. There is a beautiful stained glass solarium. In 1976, the house underwent a $1 million renovation, restoring it to its fullest grandeur. The existing staircases and interior layout would make this property ideal to separate into 3 condominiums. A bonus structure is the original octagonal icehouse built into the side of the hill. The house is a Class II historic resource in Upper Dublin Township. The property is conveniently located for an easy commute distance to Fortune 500 companies in PA, NJ, NY and DE. Near by major highways include: Route 309, the Pennsylvania Turnpike (I-76 & I-476), and the Blue Route. Regional rail express trains leave from nearby stations: Ft. Washington, Ambler and Jenkintown. Wings Field is just 6 miles away. Local fine dining can be found in nearby Ambler borough. There are two premier country clubs nearby. Manufactures practically borders the property and Philadelphia Cricket Club is only 5 minutes away. You must see the property to fully appreciate its grande
