About this home
Tucked along a quiet private lane in Gladwyne, this remarkable contemporary residence was originally designed by esteemed architect William Ferguson Deknatel, a protégé of legendary American architect Frank Lloyd Wright. Set on 2.95 picturesque acres in sought-after Lower Merion Township, the home reflects the architect’s vision of harmony between structure and landscape, with expansive glass, clean lines, and thoughtfully integrated indoor and outdoor spaces.
Approached along the private enclave of Crosby Brown Road, the property offers exceptional privacy surrounded by mature trees and natural beauty. Inside, open, airy living spaces are filled with natural light and designed for both comfortable living and elegant entertaining.
The home features five bedrooms and four full bathrooms, including a spacious first-floor primary suite and two additional bedroom suites on the main level, providing flexible living arrangements. The second floor offers two more bedrooms and a full hall bath, ideal for family or guests.
Designed for recreation and relaxation, the lower level includes a generous game room and access to an indoor pool, creating a private retreat within the home.
Outdoor living is equally impressive, with expansive terraces and covered spaces that overlook the beautiful wooded setting—perfect for dining, entertaining, or simply enjoying the tranquil surroundings.
Additional highlights include four attached garages and a separate craft or office studio, offering a quiet space for work or creative pursuits apart from the main residence.
