This impeccable estate is a true oasis, surrounded by pristine landscaping and lush gardens that lead to a serene one-acre pond, complete with a dock and fountain. Originally transformed into a modern residence in 1985, the home’s character shines through its preserved interior stone walls, exposed wood beams, and original wide plank hardwood flooring in the master bedroom. The property was further expanded in 1990 with the conversion of the original silo into additional living space, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding woods and pastures. As you step inside through the vintage front door, complete with its own skeleton key, you’ll be greeted by gorgeous hardwood floors and original exposed wood beams that add to the home's charm. A cozy office is just a few steps up to your right, while a convenient half bath and the first-floor master wing lie to your left. The master suite is a private retreat, featuring a separate laundry area, full bath with soaking tub, stall shower, double vanity, and a private balcony with stunning views to wake up to each morning. A spiral staircase outside the master suite leads to the second floor, home to two generously sized bedrooms with large closets and a full hall bath. The main level boasts a living room with extraordinarily high ceilings and a full original stone wall, adjacent to sliding glass doors that open to a grand two-tier deck with sweeping views of the gardens. The galley kitchen, with its quaint breakfast nook, is bathed in natural light from windows and skylights, offering plenty of storage, a double wall oven, and stainless steel appliances. The converted silo, with its floor-to-ceiling windows, is a must-see—cozy yet elegant, it’s the perfect spot for relaxation. A spiral staircase in the silo leads to two additional levels, one housing a full bath and the other a versatile bonus area ideal for an office space. The lower level, accessible from the oversized 3-car garage, offers two bonus areas perfect for additional storage or a workout room. With ample parking space in the driveway, this home is truly stunning, both inside and out. Every inch is thoughtfully appointed with unique decorative touches that make it both distinctive and welcoming. Located in the desirable Wissahickon School District, this historic home is a must-see. Schedule your tour today and experience the charm of Walmere Manor—a beautiful retreat that could be your new home.
