Ideally situated in desirable West Mount Airy, find the Mellor Estate -- steeped in history and showcasing unparalleled craftsmanship. A timeless Norman Revival masterpiece, the Mellor Estate was designed and built by renowned architectural firm Mellor, Meigs, and Howe as principal architect Walter Mellor’s private residence, constructed in the 1920s, a decade which marks the emergence of a new era in the regions’ architecture. Throughout the awe inspiring home, there is a simple elegance conveyed in the  perfect unity between indoor and outdoor spaces and expert craftsmanship of every element. Most noteworthy are the contributions of acclaimed master metalworker Samuel Yellin, a close associate of the firm, who was often commissioned to provide the metalwork for their designs. The park-like one acre grounds, boarded by iconic stone walls, offer tiered gardens and lush green lawns, accented a wisteria pergola and soaring oak trees. Mellor’s meticulous planning is evident throughout the Estate's landscape, which just as easily inspires reverie, peace, and tranquility today as when he plotted it nearly a century ago.
