Property Description
A classic in the Doylestown Borough community - IYKYK. The Seller of this one-of-a-kind iconic property is seeking a Buyer with an appreciation for, and an understanding of, the architectural genius of prominent architect Frank Schlesinger. Schlesinger, once a student of renowned architect Louis Kahn, designed the home as his personal residence and the masterful influences of each can be seen in the clean lines, open floor plan, and use of natural light and materials. The home features extensive stone inside and out and the interior features maple and slate floors throughout and the use of mahogany walls and teak ceilings in many rooms. In addition to two main level guest bedrooms with a shared bath, the remaining main level floor plan is open and inviting, light drenched and with an atrium supporting the kitchen space. The upper level living area is dramatically graced with a majestic stone fireplace along one wall and serves as another wonderful gathering space. Also on the upper level is a private office and resident's primary bedroom and bath. In 1961 the American Institute of Architecture awarded this home with its national "House of the Year" award for its unique design. The home was also featured in the June 4, 1965 edition of LIFE Magazine. With its pedigreed beginnings and national recognition in mind, the Seller wishes to pass along the baton to a steward and master of architectural understanding and an appreciation for the significance this property holds in Doylestown Borough.
