These increasingly cool mornings are really making us miss summer and this Radnor Township home isn’t helping matters: nestled on a little more than 2.5 acres, the Georgian brick manse has an outdoor lap pool on the second floor. According to the listing, the pool’s location allows for an easy view of the property’s formal gardens and koi pond.

Rest assured, though, a second-story swimming pool isn’t its only remarkable feature. Arriving at the home you’re met with a pebbled and brick walled courtyard that reminds us of another area home with distinct elegance; while inside, formal rooms include a library with fireplace and built-in glass paned bookcases and living room with French doors opening directly to the flagstone patio. Speaking of which, the patio runs along the back and extends the entire length of the house.

Old and new are carefully balanced within the home, with its most striking characteristics occupying both those qualities: a new wing was added to the house to make way for an open floor plan encompassing a wet bar area, gourmet kitchen, breakfast area, and mudroom; meanwhile, get this, the living has an ingress to a covered loggia with arched brick walls. A fire pit is also on the premises. Specs and photos below.
