On a quiet cul-de-sac and down a long dramatic driveway, circa 1801, sits this stunning stone bank barn, with silo, on nearly 6 acres in Blue Bell. Welcome to Walmere Manor in Whitpain Township! An impeccable estate with gardens highlighted by a tranquil one-acre pond complete with a dock and fountain. This Home was transformed in 1985 into a modern residence with pristine landscaping including, lush gardens, arbor covered walking path, and a 3-stall stable for those who dream of having horses and a place to ride them! The property was expanded in 1990 with the conversion of the original silo into additional living space with sweeping views of the natural woods and pastures that surround the home. Character abounds with the preserved interior stone walls, silo and exposed wood beams and some original wide plank hard wood flooring in the master bedroom. The gorgeous views that surround the home is what will immediately grab your attention. This scenery will certainly make you feel as if you are on a vacation every day. Walk through the vintage front door, complete with its very own skeleton key, to see gorgeous hardwood floors throughout the main floor. Above are original exposed wood beams to add to the charm. A cozy office is up a couple steps to your right and to your left is a convenient half bath and the first-floor master wing! The master suite is home to a separate laundry area, full bath with soaking tub, stall shower and double vanity, as well as your very own balcony. Wake up happy every morning with these views. A spiral stair case outside of the master suite, will take you to the second floor which is home to two nice sized bedrooms with large closets and a full hall bath. Back out to the main level living room, with its extraordinarily high ceilings, a full original stone wall, which is next to sliding glass doors out to a grand two-tier deck with sprawling views of the gardens. The galley kitchen with quaint breakfast nook, has windows and skylights for tons of natural light. Plenty of storage, double wall oven and stainless-steel appliances lead you to the converted silo. This room is a must see, with windows from floor to ceiling, it is cozy and elegant all at the same time. There is a spiral stair case that leads you to two additional levels, one is a full bath and the second could be a nice bonus area for office space. There are two bonus areas on the lower level as well, when entering from the garage, which are prefect for additional storage or a work out area. There is an oversized 3-car garage with interior access and more car space in the driveway then you could ever need! This home is truly stunning both inside and out. Every inch is appointed with some small decorative touch that truly make it both unique and comforting. This home, in Wissahickon School District, is without a doubt a must see. Make your appointment today to tour this gorgeous oasis and call this piece of history your home!
