    Welcome to 420 Cathcart Road, a remarkable mid-century modern, Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired custom contemporary home. Located in the highly sought-after neighborhood of Blue Bell, and situated in the consistently ranked blue ribbon school district of Wissahickon. As you approach the home, you'll be greeted by the stunning brickwork that sets it apart from the rest. Take pride in owning a home built with brick from a true American patriarch's Construction Company, Mr. John B. Kelly; the father of the late Princess of Monaco, Grace Kelly. With 5 bedrooms and 5 baths, this magnificent residence boasts cathedral ceilings that create an airy and open atmosphere. The interior features are truly impressive, starting with the smart home technology that ensures convenience and efficiency. Step through the new custom front door and admire the craftsmanship throughout. Prepare to be amazed by the exceptional features and luxurious finishes found in the newly remodeled kitchen. Swoon over the custom soft-close cabinetry, elegant fixtures, and top-of-the-line Dacor appliances, such as a steam oven, built-in warming drawer, and microwave. The Italian glass backsplash in the kitchen creates a sleek texture that serves as a striking focal point, perfectly complementing the rich quartzite counters. A sprawling kitchen island completes this space, designed with functionality in mind with its generous countertop prep station. This kitchen is a culinary enthusiast's dream come true! The seamless flow and timeless beauty of the hardwood floors elevate the overall aesthetic of the dining and living room. The elegance of the pass-through gas fireplace serves as the center of attention here, filling these rooms with warmth and comfort. Close by, discover the perfect blend of productivity and relaxation with a convenient office space, complete with a cozy fireplace. The primary suite offers a walk-in closet with custom built-in drawers, and shelves giving you plenty of space to arrange personal items in an accessible manner. The attention to detail continues as you step into the remodeled spa-like retreat master bath, featuring a custom walk-in shower and soaking tub. Each bedroom in this home is equipped with lighted, spacious closets, adding sufficient storage. Versatility here is endless with a separate entrance loft space. Whether you need an additional dedicated workspace, a private area for visiting family members, or an in-law suite, this space is a valuable addition with a full bath and kitchenette area. Embrace the flexibility and possibilities it offers, making it the perfect place to accommodate your unique needs. The "wow factor" extends beyond the interior! Enter into the center courtyard, nestled at the center of the home's wings, and prepare to be transported to your own private oasis. This enchanting space is surrounded by the serene beauty of the outdoors, alongside thriving native plants, creating a magical paradise.
