Managed by a professional property management company.
A rare opportunity to live in one of four historic period buildings set on nearly 1.5 acres of manicured grounds in beautiful Lower Gwynedd (Spring House / Ambler / Blue Bell).
Once part of a 19th-century hunting compound for J.P. Morgan, this remarkable stone tower - built in 1888 - served as a fox-hunting lookout. Today, it offers rustic elegance and modern comfort in a peaceful, private sanctuary that feels worlds away yet close to everything.
The four-story residence has been fully renovated, featuring a new chef's kitchen with modern appliances, 2.5 new baths, new carpeting, and a finished lower level with washer and dryer. The flexible layout allows for two or three bedrooms, depending on your lifestyle.
An adjacent corn crib barn provides extra storage or space for a special vehicle. The driveway accommodates 2 3 cars.
The fenced-in yard is beautifully landscaped with flower beds, mature trees - including a stunning weeping willow with tire swing - and a flagstone patio with outdoor furniture and BBQ, perfect for entertaining or quiet evenings outdoors. Pets are warmly considered.
Enjoy a rare sense of serenity just minutes from the Gwynedd Valley train station, Ambler YMCA, Spring House Innovation Park, and the Wissahickon trails. The new Spring House Village Center is nearby, with Whole Foods, Starbucks, and popular restaurants.
Private trash collection and lawn maintenance are included. Wissahickon's Blue Ribbon public schools and excellent private schools are within easy reach.
A truly extraordinary home that blends history, privacy, and character - perfect for an executive, family, or graduate student seeking something genuinely one-of-a-kind.
