Built in 1956 the expansive residence was designed by prominent Philadelphia architect Norman Cronheim. In his career Cronheim worked with other noted Philadelphia modernist architects including the famed Louis Kahn and architect Oscar Stonorov who designed several nearby dwellings . Travel almost to the end of Timber Lane, leaving the world behind, and buyers will find 4145 behind privacy fencing. The exterior of the home is straightforward and welcoming with hints that the grounds should be explored. Inside the home radiates light and space. The main level of the home offers complete one story living with a finished lower level with its own entrance. Rooms on the main level are large and well proportioned with windows bringing the outside in. The living room is exceptional with its fireplace and wall of built ins as is the primary bedroom. Rest in this room and hear the soothing sounds of the waterfall outside emptying into the koi pond. There are three additional good size bedrooms on this level and three full bathrooms including the huge primary bathroom with adjoining walk in closet. The kitchen is bright and airy with extensive counters and ample cabinetry. The pristine Thermador wall oven and cooktop offer vintage appeal. An angled wall creates breakfast space and adds design interest. Hallways are lined with closets, another midcentury touch. The lower level of the home includes an additional bedroom, full bathroom, kitchen , sitting area, laundry room and storage. The home opens beautifully to the exquisite outdoor space. The lot is just shy of an acre with lovely woods, meadows, peaceful sitting areas. Nature can be enjoyed to its fullest. Patios and hardscaping allow for outdoor dining and entertaining. This home is in great shape. The air conditioning system is brand new and the roof is recent. There is a 2-car garage and driveway parking for additional cars. 4145 Timber Lane may be situated in one of the greenest and most private areas of the city but it is a stone's throw to Kelly Drive, I-76 and other important arteries to city areas and the suburbs. Center City is just 15 minutes away. Come see!
