Property Description
After studying architecture at the University of Pennsylvania and in Europe, Sydney Errington Martin designed Ballard Manor in 1928 for Ellis Ames Ballard, one of the founders of the Ballard Spahr law firm. The current owners' family purchased it in 1954. Old world craftsmanship and amazing architectural details are around every corner as you make your way around this elegant home. The intricate woodwork, delicate archways, hidden doorways, six fireplaces, spacious rooms, and formal gardens are just some of many features that you'll find throughout this majestic home. It is zoned to allow for subdivision if one wanted to make it into two residences. This property is a short drive to the PA Turnpike, The Blue Route and the shops and restaurants of Chestnut Hill, Manayunk, Conshohocken, and Plymouth Meeting. Center City is an easy commute and the beautiful Wissahickon Valley of Fairmount Park is nearby with hiking, biking, fishing, horseback riding, and bird watching opportunities.
