Description
Welcome to 10 Latham Park located in the enchanting and historic gated community of Latham Park in Elkins Park, established in the early 1920s (the first gated community in the state). As you enter the ornate wrought iron gate, you are greeted by a captivated wide tree-lined street adorned with custom-built beautiful homes, where every home is architecturally significant and unique. 10 Latham Park is an exceptional mid-century modern residence that was designed and built by Armond Carroll, who was a student and follower of Frank Lloyd Wright. It stands as a testament to timeless design and architectural brilliance. This home was built for Samuel Levinson who was the president of Beth Shalom Synagogue at the same time that Frank Lloyd Wright was building the synagogue. As you enter through the front covered porch and into a vestibule, you are greeting by marble flooring, a unique pocket door, and an amazing wide and long foyer that leads into spacious public rooms. Each space boasts its own unique architectural design, emphasizing mid-century motives such as floor to ceiling windows, rich wood paneling, double glass doors leading to a center slate courtyard with Panoramic views. The elegant step-down living room is bright and inviting with a handsome pattern paneled wall framed by windows on all sides. The large formal dining room features 2 corner windows and higher placed windows along the ceiling with indirect lighting above. The large eat-in kitchen is perfectly preserved with all the original mid-century features including a circular glass block table area. As you walk by the large picture window towards the step-down spacious family room, you'll appreciate the large windows on three walls, double glass doors leading to the courtyard, stone gas fireplace, and an original wet bar. The wing housing the bedrooms is located at the end of the foyer to the right. It includes the primary bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, 2 additional bedrooms, and 2 hall closets. The very spacious basement has 10 feet high ceilings, a workshop, and a door to for outside access. Original hardwood floors under carpets in all rooms with the exception of the den.
