Property Description

Historic Elegance Meets Modern Luxury in the Heart of Wynnewood Welcome to 1202 W Wynnewood Road, a remarkable residence that seamlessly blends historic grandeur with refined modern upgrades. This one-of-a-kind home is part of the former Ballytore Estate, once owned by Isaac Clothier, co-founder of the legendary Strawbridge & Clothier department stores—a rare and storied piece of Main Line history. Originally built by Henry Morris in the late 1800s, the estate was inspired by architectural themes he admired during his European travels. The result is a home rich with character, timeless design, and enduring craftsmanship. Enter through original double doors and under the Henry Morris engraved stone header, and you're greeted with a generous foyer directing you multiple living spaces and to the heart of the home, the open-concept kitchen which is beautifully updated and perfect for everything from dinner parties to quiet evenings at home. A spacious island with stone countertop makes a quick meal easy, or convenient staging for a party. The dining room and living room are both served by beautiful fireplaces with detailed mantles and lots of natural light. Upstairs, you’ll find three generously sized bedrooms, with a luxurious primary suite, featuring a fireplace, beamed ceilings, custom closets and a tranquil, spa-like ambiance in the primary bath—offering the perfect private retreat. Easy full-stair access to the attic makes for convenient storage. Throughout the residence, rich hardwood floors, classic herringbone brick flooring, and six original fireplaces add layers of elegance and warmth. Original architectural details have been meticulously restored, including the marble flooring in the lower-level TV room, providing a unique and timeless touch. The home has been designed for serious entertaining inside and out with high ceilings, an easy flow, and lots of details to oooh and ahhh about. Modern comforts include dual-zoned HVAC, smart lighting, integrated audio and video systems, and a dedicated EV charger, as well as a convenient and private home office space. Outdoor living is equally inviting, with three private outdoor spaces: a front terrace, a peaceful side garden, and a rear deck with a motorized awning for shade and comfort. New landscaping and hardscaping surround the home in natural beauty and low-maintenance design. A spacious unfinished cold storage room provides exciting potential—perfect for a wine cellar, fitness area, or creative studio or extra storage. Located within easy walking distance of Whole Foods, favorite restaurants, Starbucks, shopping, and public transportation, as well as a new luxury fitness club opening in 2026, this home delivers the rare combination of historic significance, modern luxury, and unbeatable convenience. 1202 W Wynnewood Road is more than a home—it’s a once-in-a-generation opportunity to own a piece of Main Line history, thoughtfully updated for today’s lifestyle.
