Property Description
DEVON HOUSE One hundred years ago, less than 10 miles east of Philadelphia, the tiny town of Tavistock was incorporated within the historic Borough of Haddonfield to legalize Sunday golfing. Now, a century later, one of the 3 homes in this bucolic town is being offered for sale. Devon House is a stately 1929 stone manor that has been expertly renovated and meticulously refined into an unforgettable residence that blends comforting charm with sleek sophistication. With over 8,600 SF, 5 bedrooms and 6 full and 3 half baths, life at Devon House can be as grand or as casual as desired. Comfortable furnishings, gracious appointments and unique antiques blend with all of today’s modern conveniences. Every day feels like you are on holiday as you enjoy the tranquility in a multitude of sunny spots and shady retreats. Beautiful views of the golf course are framed by the many windows and patios. When you enter through the stone columns onto the designer paving stone, circular driveway, you are greeted by the Tavy River fountain, built from stone imported from Tavistock, England, flanked by meticulously landscaped gardens and terraces graced with water features This estate also offers a separate service entrance, heated spacious 3-car garage and greenhouse. Amenities include formal and family foyers, curved-staircase, elevator, custom kitchen complete with commercial European appliances surrounded by hand painted walls and loads of custom cabinetry. A morning room for family dining with entertainment bar sits adjacent to a spacious patio with stunning views of the golf course. The intimate formal dining room is complete with pocket doors that define this regal room.
