The “Rhode Residence”, located at 1220 Susquehanna Road in the Rydal section of Abington Township, was featured by Dwell.com for its ties to a prominent architect.
The 1957-built, 2,244 sf rancher was designed by Carlos Joseph Alvaré (1924-2017), a Cuban-born architect who worked directly under and was mentored from 1947-1951 by Louis Kahn, a famous 20th-century architect known for creating monumental, geometric buildings that featured raw materials like concrete and brick.
The .72-acre property has been featured by E! And Hulu and sold in June for $1,056,000. It features 10-foot walls of glass, exposed Douglas fir beams, fieldstone facades, and a lush, Japanese-inspired garden.
