Description

Introducing Gypsy Run, an enchanting estate nestled in the heart of Gwynedd Valley, set on over four private acres. A long, tree-lined driveway winds past a tranquil pond and reveals an impressive stone manor that exemplifies the craftsmanship and timeless elegance of a bygone era. Steeped in history, the home showcases exquisite original details, including handcrafted Mercer tilework, wide-plank hardwood floors, deep-set windowsills, intricate millwork, arched doorways, grand crown moldings, and original stone fireplaces. A stately Mercer-tiled foyer sets the tone, offering a gracious welcome. To the left, a formal dining room features a granite fireplace and a large bay window overlooking the motorcourt. To the right, the formal living room boasts a coffered ceiling, fireplace, and French doors opening to a sweeping slate patio. Adjoining this space is a richly paneled study with built-in shelving and a fireplace. At the heart of the home is a sun-filled kitchen and a thoughtfully designed breakfast room addition, with floor-to-ceiling windows framing panoramic views of the grounds and pond. A large center island, professional-grade appliances, and a cozy gas fireplace create an inviting yet sophisticated space for daily living. The adjacent butler’s pantry, complete with marble countertops, a secondary dishwasher, and a beverage refrigerator, offers abundant storage and ideal support for entertaining. A rear mudroom provides access to a private two-bedroom inlaw or nanny suite. Upstairs, the bright and expansive primary suite is a private retreat, featuring a sitting room with fireplace, a private office, a walk-in closet, and a renovated en-suite bath with a walk-in shower—plus a second, private full bathroom. A secondary suite offers comfort and privacy, while a hallway lined with closets and a laundry room leads to a third spacious bedroom with en-suite bath and walk-in closet. The third floor includes two additional bedrooms, a full hall bath, a large recreation room, and generous storage spaces. The outdoor spaces are equally captivating. An expansive slate patio overlooks the scenic grounds, peaceful pond, and in-ground pool, surrounded by lush gardens and mature trees that lend the feel of a secluded country retreat. A charming springhouse, partially repurposed as a cabana, and a newly built three-car garage with ample additional parking complete this extraordinary property. Ideally located just a half mile from the Gwynedd Valley train station and minutes from local shopping and dining, Gypsy Run is a rare offering—an exceptional estate that honors its historic legacy while embracing modern comfort and refined living.
