Property Description
Discover serenity and prestige in this fully turnkey equestrian sanctuary nestled on 24 private acres adjacent to over 280 acres of permanently preserved land within Gwynedd Wildlife Preserve. With pond and arboretum vistas, lighted pickleball courts, spa amenities, and custom riding facilities, this bespoke property blends historic character with modern comfort—all just 45 minutes from Philadelphia and 90 minutes from New York City.
Step through the doors of the 1742 main residence—meticulously restored and expanded with the finest craftsmanship. Here, rustic elegance meets luxury: exposed stone walls, original barn-beam ceilings, antique fireplaces, and deep-well windows anchor the historic charm, while a gourmet chef's kitchen shines with quartzite countertops, built-in Thermador and Miele appliances, a zinc-topped bar, wine refrigeration, and electric appliance lifts.
The master suite is your private retreat: a covered deck, dual walk-in closets, spa-style bath with soaking jacuzzi, Toto toilet, floating cabinetry, mosaic marble flooring, hand-blown light fixtures, and a Sunlighten far-infrared sauna. With Smart Glass windows, privacy is instantaneous. Three additional ensuite bedrooms include one with a private entrance and sitting room, ideal for extended family or staff. Interior comfort flows throughout via elevator or custom, iron staircase. A lower-level gym, powder room, and storage round out the luxurious layout.
Equestrian excellence defines the grounds. The custom indoor arena (200′ x 86′) features Attwood dust-free footing, mirrored riding wall, heated wash stall, and 24 oversized, automated glass doors opening to the surrounding landscape. A climate-controlled tack/viewing room with kitchen and powder room adds convenience. The restored 200 year old bank barn with 6 large stalls, auxiliary ten-stall shed row, and four, fully fenced, expansive paddocks—including multiple run-in sheds, 150' round pen, four 50 foot round pens, hayloft and storage—ensure your horses are housed in safety and style. Riding trails to nearly 300 preserved acres completes the equestrian experience.
Additional structures enhance function and charm: a newly renovated guest cottage with 2 bedrooms and 2 baths, plus a caretaker's home offering 3 bedrooms and 1.5 baths. Recreation includes two ultra-mat cushioned, lighted pickleball courts, a hot tub tucked beside a rustic spring house, stone patios and private deck with BBQ.
Located moments from acclaimed public and private schools, country clubs, a private airport, and King of Prussia Mall, this estate enjoys low taxes and effortless access to major commuter routes.
This is more than a home—it's a curated lifestyle experience, combining an equestrian's paradise, historical elegance, resort-style amenities, and cutting-edge smart home luxury in a setting of profound privacy. For the most discerning buyer who appreciates an offering with this caliber of design, location, and turnkey readiness.
