Meticulously built, lovingly maintained and thoughtfully upgraded, the ultra-grand 5 bedroom, 6.2 spa bath home donned "Maxwellton" offers all the hallmarks one could want in a luxury estate. Set on a majestic 1.57 acres with lush gardens, pristine landscaping, sprawling lawn areas and a swimming pool, this 1921-built brick Georgian-style treasure sits high on a graceful hillside in one of the Main Line's most coveted locations. Expansive bucolic environs coupled with an impeccable 8,040 square feet of exquisitely-designed interior space perfectly accommodate extravagant indoor-outdoor entertaining. Maxwellton boasts an incomparable level of architectural detailing that is nothing short of spectacular. Intimate family areas are interspersed amid formal entertaining spaces, all of which are graced by the most refined appointments. From the intricate ceiling work to the extensive moldings and millwork, rich hardwood floors, tasteful built-ins and magnificent fireplaces, every aspect of this incomparable home is awe inspiring. A long list of recent improvements performed by renowned architects, landscapers and design firms have raised the bar of elegance even further, melding glamorous classicism with enviable amenities for the modern lifestyle. Whether preparing meals in the fabulous top-of-the-line kitchen or relaxing in the sumptuous master bedroom suite with its stunning room of mahogany-paneled closets, your experience is unparalleled. The discerning chef will find ultimate pleasure with a built-in Sub-Zero model 632, premier La Cornue Chateau 165 range, Wolf built-in convection and microwave oven, professional Miele built-in coffee making system, and pantry with Wilkinson painted cabinets. A unique "dish room" with 80' of cabinetry, smaller kitchen off the main kitchen, "chocolate room" designed for optimal humidity and temperature control, and custom-built wine cellar are among endless exclusive features that set this home apart. State-of-the-art systems, security and audio/visual optimize comfort, including a wonderful drop-down screen in the master bedroom.
