Property Description
Welcome to 1121 Barberry Road, an exceptional French Country estate home designed by the celebrated architect Walter Durham and thoughtfully expanded to blend historic elegance with modern luxury. Located on one of northside Bryn Mawr’s most coveted streets, near the charming village of Gladwyne, this distinguished property offers both tranquility and easy access to major transportation routes for a convenient commute to Center City Philadelphia.
Enter through the bright, welcoming foyer, where you’ll find access to the main living spaces and the first of two main floor powder rooms. Every room enjoys breathtaking views of the expansive grounds, which are beautiful in every season on the year. The spacious living room features a large wall of windows and a fireplace, perfect for gathering with family and friends. A dining room awaits for elegant dinners, while the generously sized home office with a bay window and custom built-ins offers a serene workspace. The gourmet kitchen is appointed with stainless steel appliances, a large island with a gas cooktop, and granite countertops, opening to a light-filled breakfast area with curved windows that overlook the swimming pool. Beyond the breakfast area, the family room, complete with built-in cabinetry and a second fireplace, creates a warm setting for relaxation and entertaining. A mudroom with the adjacent second powder room completes the first floor.
Ascend to the second floor by either of two stairways or via an elevator, where the luxurious primary suite and four additional bedrooms await. The primary bedroom is generously sized and features picturesque views from both a bow window and screened deck that overlook the pool and grounds. The primary suite also features a loft area, a spacious walk-in closet and an en-suite primary bathroom that offers a soaking tub and separate shower. The four additional bedrooms include one with an en suite bathroom, one served by a hall bathroom and two of which share a Jack-and-Jill bathroom. The convenience of a second-floor laundry room completes this level.
The lower level of the main house offers a fully finished space with a decorative fireplace and a full bathroom, providing a versatile area for recreation and entertainment. A breezeway from the first floor leads to a two story addition that further enhances the estate’s functionality and appeal. This structure includes a three-car garage on the main level, with a fully finished second level that features a recreation room and full bathroom, perfect as an exercise or entertainment area or for conversion to an in-law suite.
Set on over 2.5 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds, this property includes exquisite gardens, a pond with a charming walking bridge, and a private swimming pool. Experience unparalleled Main Line living in this refined Walter Durham masterpiece, where timeless design meets luxurious modern amenities.
