Just 25 minutes from center city Philadelphia, delight in the storied history living in one of Main Line’s most coveted neighborhoods.

Linden Hill Court is a historic and rare opportunity to experience true estate living. The main residence, guest house, grounds and gardens are spectacular, and are magnificently maintained by the present owners. The property is notable for its world-class architecture and its very private, park-like setting. Constructed by architect Edmund B. Gilchrist from 1928 to 1931, the estate was originally built for stockbroker Rodman Ellison Griscom. In the 1950s, the Dorrance Family of John T. Dorrance, the Campbell Soup chemist responsible for the conception of condensing soup, purchased the property and raised their family on the estate until the mid 1990s. The Linden Hill Court offers a primary home and a guest house, a 10-car garage, woodshop, and barn all with cedar shake roofs.
