Welcome to 324 Keller Road, also known as "The House within a House." Originally built between 1907 & 1908 on nearly 200 acres as a summer home for a Philadelphia family until it changed hands in 1950. The home was then expanded to its present size and iconic brick exterior in 1951. Today's owners purchased the home more than 30 years ago and have since meticulously renovated and maintained this historic main line property. The stately, sweeping driveway is adorned in elegant mature landscaping that adds privacy and beauty at every turn. The driveway leads to an impressive front door trimmed in arched glass and surrounded by Flemish course brick exterior. Inside, "The Lobby" has greeted those who have entered for more that 70 years with soaring ceilings, an intricate stone fireplace/hearth, a wall of windows, hand crafted built-in bookshelves and more. "The Lobby" leads to a welcoming formal living room with gas fireplace, more built-ins and three large floor-to-ceiling French doors all spilling out on to an expansive brick patio, covered porch and side yard with stone walls. In addition, there is a large foyer and full bath on this wing. Back through "The Lobby" to enter the heart of the home with a front staircase and hallway to the formal dining room with French doors to another rear stone patio. The gourmet kitchen features a gathering island with gas range, built-in sub-zero fridge, a sink overlooking another rear flagstone patio. The nearby butler's pantry completes the kitchen. The breakfast room offers exposed brick wall, a desk and built-in cabinetry. The unique octagon family room will impress.
