ROCK ROSE, one of the last surviving estates of its kind on the Main Line is a legendary family home. Built in 1912 through the collaborative efforts of the architects, Zantzinger, Borie and Medary, from materials and a design hinting toward their later famed creation of the Philadelphia Art Museum. This commanding estate sits, secluded, upon 5.4 acres in N. side Radnor. Exceptional craftsmanship is first evident when you drive up the gravel driveway to see the stunning terracotta colored home with Italian tile work accenting the roof. Exterior buildings include an octagonal shaped gazebo, tennis court, bi-level pool, carriage house with 3 car garage. Magnificent interior appointments are highlighted throughout the home. Highlights include wood paneled Library/Den, expansive ballroom with fireplace, Portuguese tiled bar room, and mahogany wood dining room with stunning art nouveau fireplace. An expansive master suite includes his and her separate bathrooms and individual dressing rooms, two exquisite en-suite guest rooms, and five additional family bedrooms with three full bathrooms make up the family¿s private quarters. Since its groundbreaking until the present, this home has had only two families in residence. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for the most discerning buyer to continue the legacy.
