Property Description
|
|
|
Alexander J. Cassatt's home, Cheswold, eventually became the property of Cassatt's daughter, Eliza, and her husband J. Plunkett Stewart. Shortly after their 1902 marriage, the Stewarts asked New York architects Chapman Fraser to design a house and stable of their own on five of Cheswold's 54 acres. While the house was later demolished the Stewart stable remains as 151 Cheswold Valley Road. It is now a most comfortable, unique home and is truly one of a kind. The exterior is stucco, the roof is slate, and the design employs prominent, but pleasing lines and bold symmetry. Three sides of the building embrace an elegant, peaceful, gated courtyard with a professionally landscaped garden. The interior spaces are elegant, yet practical. Various features include marble floors, beamed ceilings, imported flooring, exquisite paneling, arched carriage windows, an imported Italian antique mantle and built-in armoire. On the upper level all six/seven Bedrooms each open to a gallery hallway, including a luxurious Master Bedroom Suite. The home is nestled on nearly an acre of beautifully secluded property with a pond, stream and gardens. |
