635 S Ithan Avenue
Bryn Mawr, PA 19010

If you are looking to purchase a home, have you ever said to yourself about a house that you like, I just wish the kitchen and/or family room was bigger or I wish the bedrooms were larger or had ensuite bathrooms. Or I wish it had a private office with a separate entrance or I wish it had an exercise room-a steam shower, a dance floor, a hot tub and/or a pool? These objections have stopped you from making an offer! Well 635 S. Ithan Ave is an extraordinary home that overcomes all of these objections! It has it all. With a focus on extraordinary properties, Gordon L Todd Associates, Architects & Planners designed this home built by A. L. Hellmann Custom Builders with the best materials many sourced from around the world thus creating a home that is architecturally interesting as well as highly functional. What's more the marble and wood flooring throughout the home has radiant heat! Drive through the gated entrance up the paver driveway and feel an added layer of security and privacy, and a sense of exclusivity. As you approach the front entrance you will note the solid hand carved 6x8 teak wood double doors above which is a portico highlighted by decorative hand carved stone fencing. The large, imported German WERU windows swing and tilt and have eye-catching hand carved stone trim. Once inside you will be wowed by the imported white Italian Calacatta gold marble floors, the soaring 30-foot ceilings, the two-sided fireplace highlighted with hand chiseled stone, 4 magnificent ballroom chandeliers, a dramatic butterfly staircase and a custom-built wet bar. If dramatic is what you like the columns and catwalk above the main floor will be a delight. Sunshine abounds in the great room dining room from the walls of windows melding the outside beauty with the inside beauty.
