Looking to lease a unique, custom built home totally surrounded by Nature with floor to ceiling windows to admire the scenery? A sizeable, wraparound deck was designed for that perfect indoor/outdoor living which accentuates this beautiful home with views of Valley Forge Mountain. The original owner was an artist in his woodworking and craftmanship. He drew his inspiration from Wharton Esherick whose nearby Homestead is a National Historic Landmark for Architecture. This open layout with 20' ceilings and open beams are over the kitchen, breakfast area/dining area, family room with sunken fireplace pit. This floor to ceiling, stone fireplace boasts a gorgeous, hand crafted, inlaid wood flooring and can actually heat the first floor with its stones. The family room is also open to the living room with another fireplace and multiple sets of sliding glass doors opening up to the massive deck. The open kitchen area has a unique circular eating island and a circular breakfast/dining area surrounded by windows and light. There's a bedroom off of the living room for a 1st floor bedroom. The 2nd floor is accessed by 2 staircases. An open wooden staircase and the Esherick inspired hand carved, spiral staircase next to an artistically, saved tree from construction. A fantastic, focal point for the living room and the family room. The 2nd floor Main Suite boasts a stone fireplace, custom built bureaus and cabinets, and a large on-suite with double vanity, oversized tile shower and a jetted tub. There are 2 additional bedrooms and a hall bath. Both bedrooms have loft areas that overlook the 1st floor with a birds eye view of the sanctuary woods surrounding the home. The 1 car garage is on the side and enters into the kitchen. There is a full basement under the rear section of the home that could be the perfect workshop once used by the original owner. Large portion of the deck has been replaced. New stove, refrigerator, washer and dryer. Need more space? There is an additional building next to the main house that has an additional 1 bedroom apartment over a 2 car garage. Would make a great Art Studio or quiet office... Don't miss out on this unique home in the woods. You could be renting a little piece of heaven.
