Introducing 9 Norman Lane, a distinguished Chestnut Hill residence with origins dating to the year 1890 and further shaped in 1926 for W. C. Tuttle. Designed by Hodgens & Hill and built by the Haverstick-Borthwick Company, the home reflects the enduring principles of Colonial Revival architecture. Set on 1.02 acres, this 5 bedroom, 3.5 bath home offers approximately 5,700 square feet of living space. A gently rising drive lined with stone walls leads to the residence, positioned above its surroundings with stunning views of lawn and treetops, evoking the character of a European country house. Inside, a gracious foyer with a sweeping curved staircase introduces well-proportioned living spaces defined by original hardwood floors, detailed millwork, and stately fireplaces. The living room opens to a sunroom overlooking the pool and gardens, while the dining room features custom built-ins, a fireplace, and a statement crystal chandelier. A light-filled family room with floor-to-ceiling windows, built-ins, and wet bar connects seamlessly to the outdoors. The kitchen is appointed with custom cabinetry, marble countertops, a center island, and professional-grade appliances, including Sub-Zero and Viking, with an adjacent laundry room. The second level features an expansive primary suite with private terrace, ensuite bath with soaking tub and walk-in shower, and a boutique-style dressing room. Two additional bedrooms and full baths complete this level. The third floor offers two bedrooms, a Jack-and-Jill bath, and a cedar closet. Outdoor spaces include spectacular flagstone terraces, stone walls, a pool with a sculptural stone fountain and outdoor shower, creating a setting reminiscent of a European retreat. A detached stone structure houses pool equipment, echoing the home's architectural character. With its elevated setting and landscape defined by mature trees and thoughtful design, 9 Norman Lane offers a rare opportunity to own a home where architecture, setting, and livability come together with quiet distinction. Just minutes from charming shops, acclaimed restaurants, the scenic Wissahickon trails, and convenient train access to Center City Philadelphia, Manhattan and DC, this is where historic charm meets modern lifestyle. Discover the warmth, character, and quiet grandeur of 9 Norman Lane; a home where every detail tells a story.
