Listing description

A lighthearted warmth invites you into 1533 Briar Hill, where the quintessential Main Line lifestyle awaits. Meticulous grounds and a sparkling exterior capture you from the driveway. Inside this luxurious estate unfolds across three levels built to suit large gatherings and intimate family living in the heart of the Main Line. A dramatic entry hall with a vaulted ceiling and curved staircase immediately reveals the refined presence and impressive scale of this classic home. Soaring ceilings continue throughout formal and informal spaces, all of which flow seamlessly and create an airy feel. The recent sunroom addition was built by the original architect to bring abundant light and a year-round connection to the serene landscape. A substantial family room accompanies the eat-in kitchen and connects to a deck with sweeping views of Gladwyne. The finished lower level spans a game and recreation room that opens to the resort-style jacuzzi and pool. A private guest suite and 4-car garage are replete with comfort and utility. Upstairs is highlighted by an enormous primary suite and 4 additional bedrooms with beautifully updated bathrooms. Seller's rigorous maintenance schedule extends to various updates and improvements. This is a rare opportunity to own a distinguished, turn-key residence in one of the most beautiful locations in Pennsylvania. Contact Garrett Snider/The Lavinia Smerconish Team at Compass.

Recomputed from the county assessment ($920,460, 1996 base year) × current millage. School millage is from the latest year certified by the Pennsylvania Department of Education (2025-26); districts adopt the next year's budgets each June, and we update when the state certifies the statewide file in the fall. Portals typically reprint the recorded 2026 bill. Pennsylvania does not reassess on sale. Estimate only. Verify with Montgomery County before relying on it.

Taxes use NookLocal's estimate at current millage rates, not the stale figure on the MLS. The default rate is the average 30-year rate as of July 2026; insurance is estimated at 0.35% of the price per year. Below 20% down, lenders usually add mortgage insurance, which this estimate doesn't include. Estimate only; verify before relying on it.
