Built in 1909 and set on 6.4 acre estate bordered by 1,800 acres of Wissahickon Valley Park, Greylock Mansion is an impressive 16,500 square foot stone structure on the market for $1.79 million. The residence is currently vacant and in need of repairs. Originally built in 1909 by steel magnate Henry A. Laughlin, the stone exterior was quarried on site to construct this marvel. The main house stands on a wide terrace with floor footprint sizes between 5,000 and 3,290 square including the walk out basement floor which has usable desirable ceiling heights. The grand covered entrance opens to the gorgeous marble tiled floors of the grand hall of the house and gives a clear span view to the other side of the house and its giant entertaining patio.
The ceiling height, grandeur of the marble tile, the white marble stairs and the windows everywhere show the pure class of this building and its potential. Large living and dining rooms flank the exterior patio overlooking the sprawling 3-4 acre front lawn and the views provide great site of the Wissahickon Valley. Many of these rooms still have original historic details that can and should be highlighted by her next owner. The nearby carriage house is approximately 4,500 square feet with garage parking and has an abundance of possibilities from private office space to in-law residence to work shop or more. What is more good news is that the property taxes are reasonably low because of the conservancy easement on the property. Greylock Mansion is on the market for $1.79 million with Nigel Richards of Compass.
