Property Description
Welcome to Happinest! This stately stone and stucco Arts and Crafts Tudor was built in 1908 by J. Haines and Alice Needles Lippincott. Mr. Lippincott was a partner in the Philadelphia firm of Lippincott & Leeds, which provided financial backing for the construction of large hotels including the Chalfont/Haddon Hall in Atlantic City. Mrs. Lippincott's nephew, Edward Needles Write, was one of the founders of the School in Rose Valley. The home is situated on a 1.6 acre landscaped lot on a fabulous cul de sac street in the heart of Rose Valley Borough. There are stunning architectural details unique to a home of this age including stained glass windows, high ceilings, moravian tile, beautiful woodwork and hardwood floors, First floor includes a foyer, formal living room with fireplace, formal dining room, 3 season room, screened porch, and Eat-in kitchen. Master bedroom suite with fireplace and sleeping porch plus 3 additional bedrooms and a hall bath are on the 2nd floor. There is a large 5th bedroom and updated bath on the third floor. A gardener's delight, the plantings will make your heart sing and the landscaped area to the right of the house is all part of the property. The 3 car plus detached garage has room for a shop or studio. Rose Valley is home to Hedgerow Theatre, the oldest repertory theatre in the country, The Old Mill, The School in Rose Valley, The Rose Valley Museum and historical society, The Rose Valley Swim and Tennis club, Saul Nature preserve and fabulous walking paths by the creek. Walking distance to the train station, library, schools and a 20 minute drive to the Philadelphia airport. Professional photos will be uploaded shortly.
