This fabulous all stone mid-century rancher was designed to blend in beautifully with the grander historical homes in this upscale Elkins Park neighborhood. With over 2700 square feet, this home you can support a lifestyle of entertainment and, if you wish, intimate days of reading by the fire. The architect of this home made a well designed foyer that allows one to have private client visits to your office by the front door. Also in the layout of this house, all bedrooms have easy access to a full bath . Besides the lovely parquet flooring in the entry way, the rest of the first floor shines with magnificent oak flooring. Other features that are designed for entertainment are the all season room in glass surround that gives you a view of your inground pool, the lush back yard full of plant flora and the patios made for picnics. There is a rear entrance to lower level bedroom, theatre/family room and bath accessed from a pathway that goes around one side of the house. This super space could used as for another generational occupant ! We could go on forever telling you about this house with one floor living and some open floor space but come see the custom built home your self
