This field stone French Provincial house was designed by Robert A. M. Stern to be the primary gateway house to Villanova Heights. It offers 11,135 square feet of living space on a lot of 25,150 square feet. Dominated by its steeply pitched roof with dormers, the key element of this home is its simplicity and understatement.
The entrance hall is accessed by a wrap around porch on the south and eastern elevations of the home. The entrance hall flows into an oversized living room and a dining room. There is a powder room in back of the stairs to the second floor and the entrance hall is two stories in height. The first floor also contains a kitchen and large family room with an eat-in area off the kitchen. There is also a library and a laundry on the first floor with a second powder room off the library. The living room and the kitchen open to a pergola on the side lawn area.
In the master bedroom suite both the master bedroom and sitting room lead to an outdoor porch. There are two walk-in closets and a master bath. The second floor also contains four other bedrooms of ample size and walk-in closets. Each has its own bathroom.
