A discreet private lane leads to this storied barn conversion residence. Each thoughtfully created addition has transformed this one time, turn of the century, carriage and hay loft barn, into the ultimate residence and lifestyle. The original barn was built into the beauty of the surrounding natural landscape, nestled along the Wissahickon, and converted with the utmost simplicity and style. This stunning private retreat with more than 7,700 square feet on 1.76 acres is offering 5 bedrooms, 4 baths and powder room, surrounded by purposefully placed balconies and terraces to invite the breathtaking views and sounds of the water and neighboring Fort Washington State Park, into the residence. Original random width barn wood flooring, beams, doors and walls offer extraordinary warmth and contrast to the carefully selected modern fixtures and finishes that complement the vast, unique rooms with lofts, distinct fireplaces and soaring 10', 12' & 18' ceiling heights. The generous entry foyer leads to the custom floating glass panel staircase and family room with skylights, cathedral ceiling and wood burning stove. Through the original barn wood paneled and beamed study with fireplace is the barn style entry door to the kitchen. Stunning views are immediately in full sight and complemented by soaring ceiling heights and equally impressive floor-to-ceiling glass walls. Two sets of French doors lead to the open living and dining rooms with cathedral ceiling, Wissahickon Schist stone fireplace, custom cabinetry & storage and original barn wood appointments. The extensive master bedroom suite offers extended ceiling heights with skylights, a private terrace overlooking the English gardens & pool area, recessed lighting and extraordinary closet space. On the other side of the beautifully appointed master bedroom bath with floating vanity and oversized glass enclosed stall shower, skylight and exposed steel beam, is a closet room with built-in storage and entry to the private master bedroom loft with built-in desk and cabinetry overlooking the Kitchen and wall of windows below. Each of the additional 4 bedrooms offers distinct character and finish with lofts, extended ceiling heights, extensive closets, original barn wood accents and modern built-in appointments. Extraordinary and extreme storage is available at every turn of this home, from the mud room to the garage to extended hall closets and entire rooms devoted to storage and convenience. The resort-at-home lifestyle features a swimming pool, hot tub, outdoor shower, flagstone paths & patios, through an English style garden, complemented by a convenient indoor cabana and water closet ideally located for pool users & guests. A finished area of the home is dedicated to a mirrored wall studio gym and extended entertainment area. For guests, in-laws, a home office or simple escape, the one-time chicken coup has been converted to a charming 1 bedroom, 1 bath private country cottage complete with its own private deck, living room, kitchen and washer/dryer. This home and storied lifestyle is ready to be called your home where memories are made and your story is written. Ask the agents about the website dedicated to the property.
