SUNDAY April 13 OPEN HOUSE CANCELLED Nestled on a picturesque parcel once part of the storied Wentworth farm, this exceptional Colonial Revival estate—designed in 1911 by renowned Philadelphia architect Charles Barton Keen—is a rare offering in the heart of Strafford. Keen, celebrated for his work on Reynolda House and the Aronimink and Valley Forge Golf Clubhouses, designed this home and its two neighbors as a cohesive architectural trio. Set on lushly landscaped grounds, a stone bridge, river rock paths, and a tranquil pond, this home offers a seamless blend of early 20th-century craftsmanship and modern comfort. The front-to-back Center Hall opens to spacious formal Living and Dining Rooms—each with fireplaces and French doors to a stately brick-columned veranda that spans the rear facade. A sun-bathed Kitchen, fully renovated with custom finishes, opens to a Sunroom addition and charming patio overlooking the gardens. The showstopping barrel-ceilinged Library is appointed with floor-to-ceiling mahogany bookcases and wide-plank black walnut floors. A Solarium with original tile fountain leads to the breezeway and detached Garage. The second floor offers a serene Primary Suite with fireplace, Sitting Room, and updated Bath, along with two large Bedrooms and Hall Bath. The third floor features two additional Bedrooms and a full Bath—perfect for guests, home office, or studio space. The partially finished lower level includes ample storage, rec space, and newer electrical systems. Conveniently close to Strafford Train Station, downtown Wayne, Whole Foods, the Strafford Farmers Market, the King of Prussia Mall, Rte. 202, the PA turnpike and 76, this historically significant home delivers timeless elegance, privacy, and convenience—plus a backyard pond. Own a piece of Strafford’s rich history—an heirloom home built to last another century.
