A Westover Hills classic with timeless appeal at the corner of a tree-lined byway, 1001 Westover Road stands as a rare convergence of architectural preservation and modern ease, as Old-World charm meets contemporary life. Designed in 1928 by Philadelphia architects Wallace and Warner, renowned for their European-inspired houses, the residence… Read More is a distinguished example of English Tudor Revival style built at the height of American craftsmanship. Its intricate stone-and-brick fae7;ade, crowned by a striking red tile roof, sets the tone before you reach the threshold, the first steps on an exceptional journey. A substantial paneled oak door opens beside the original copper-domed lantern, ushering guests into a foyer that is grand and rooted in artistry. The handcrafted Mercer tile floor was created at the Moravian Pottery and Tile Works, emblematic of the Arts & Crafts movement. Brass and wrought-iron balusters and a richly patinated oak handrail grace the staircase. Throughout the home, original character is celebrated. A carved mantel anchors the living room, while a library wrapped in lime-washed oak offers an intimate retreat. Sconces and chandeliers exude ambience. Vintage bathroom fixtures and tiles were preserved wherever possible. A south-facing sunroom - currently used as an artist's studio - glows with natural light, offering an inspiring space for creativity, reading, or quiet retreat. Yet the home is far from a museum piece. Its spaces reflect how people live today. The kitchen is a study in beauty and utility, designed for serious cooking and effortless gathering with professional-style appliances and generous cabinetry, including an original floor-to-ceiling cupboard. The layout is thoughtfully organized, with distinct prep and cooking zones surrounding a large central island. Recent additions have been executed by Dewson Construction. A family room with radiant heat flooring, an expansive mudroom with double closets, and an oversized three-car garage integrate seamlessly with the original structure. Above the garage, unfinished space offers the opportunity for a guest suite, studio, or private office. Upstairs, spacious six bedrooms provide flexibility for family and guests. The primary suite is a serene haven with dual closets, including a generous walk-in closet with a dressing area and under-eave storage. A large second-floor laundry room connects to an original cedar closet, blending practicality with period detail. Modern comforts are woven throughout, including abundant storage, energy-efficient, UV-resistant windows and zoned heating and cooling. The home's flow speaks to contemporary living, with formal and informal rooms connected in a circular layout that makes entertaining feel effortless. Set on a lush 0.66-acre corner lot, the grounds are a private sanctuary of mature trees, curated terraces, and intimate garden moments. A bluestone patio invites al fresco dining, while a tranquil Zen pond offers reflection. Stone pathways illuminated by copper landscape lighting wind through the property, and a fenced yard provides space for play and peace of mind. As this exceptional home approaches its centennial, it offers something increasingly rare: authenticity without compromise. Read Less
