Property Description

Welcome to CLOVER CROFT. This Majestic home situated in a magical garden is a standout of the Sedgwick Farms Development in the Mt Airy neighborhood of Philadelphia. Originally designed and built for Louisa Lovett, this home has all the hallmarks of a home by Architect, Ashton Tourison and built by his father, Sedgwick Tourison. Beautifully sited on a hill high above the street, the Tudor facade has a commanding presence. Enter the property through a Wisteria covered pergola and follow the Wissahickon schist steps and paths to the entrance of this very special home. The foyer is an Anglophiles dream, a monumental staircase straight ahead rising to the upper level is a handsome sight. The cozy inglenook with stone fireplace is a cozy spot on a winter's eve. The living room with a wood paneled fireplace and bay wind is a lovely space. The expansive dining room is exquisitely appointed handsome mantelpiece, leaded glass windows and detailed moldings that is perfect for entertaining on a grand sale or an intimate dinner party. The newer kitchen is a chef's delight. There is a GE professional range with 6 burners & double ovens, Viking refrigerator, Viking dishwasher, butcher block counters and open shelving are just some of the bonuses of this wonderful space. The breakfast mud area is continuation of the expansive kitchen, reclaimed Hemlock floors and the custom live edge shelving, bench, storage and finally a spiral staircase to the loft complete this area. The master suite is a tranquil space with leaded windows, walk-in closet, Juliet balcony and en-suite bath. The master bath is a showstopper. A wet room with soaking tub honed marble floor and walls, mosaic mirrored accent and radiant heated floors. A study/craft room with pocket doors and closet is a versatile spot. The sunny guestroom is attached to the updated hall bath, a classic black and white tile with a new floor, vanity and toilet. The 3rd bedroom suite is quite wonderful with a fireplace, bookcases and its own sunroom/artist studio. The loft bedroom suite is the icing on the cake, a handsome space with a new bath with reclaimed wood paneled walls, an entertainment room with industrial library system with ladder and spiral staircase to the 1st floor. The backyard is an urban oasis, gorgeous gunite pool with built in spa, brick patio,porch, entertaining deck, stone paths ,raised beds, greenhouse ,towering trees, fruit trees, blueberries, raspberries, strawberries and cherries. So much more to this paradise that needs to be explored. The 2 car garage fits into the landscape like a Cotswold cottage. Newer Buderus high efficiency European heating system is a plus in the winter and central air conditioning for summer. This wonderful home is close to public transportation, Lovett Library, commuter rail, Sedgwick Theater,Weavers Way, Acme supermarket, fitness club, shopping, Mt. Airy Playground, and the fantastic choices of dining and shopping on Germantown Avenue. The convenience of city living within a friendly neighborhood setting.
