This place is amazing and has a great history. I am not usually drawn to walls covered in any type of rock but for some reason the balance of elements in the exterior really work well together. I would think it quite rare to have a home stay in the family so long, but it is now being offered to the public. Times are rough but for a measly 1.3 million this gem can be yours. More pics after the jump.
This architecturally significant home THE MITCHELL RESIDENCE was designed in 1956 by one of Philadelphia’s 20th century architects to achieve world recognition. Ehrman B. Mitchell (1925-2005),co-founding partner of Mitchell/Giurgola, designed and built this home as his personal residence. This is the first time it has ever been on the market. Ownership within the family has maintained the outstanding, original design features, unaltered and in pristine condition.
