"One auction attendee pointed out how amazing it was that we lined up ten buyers to compete. He said he couldn't imagine another time a property of this caliber in the Philadelphia region had benefitted from such traction," stated Laura Brady, Founder and President of Concierge Auctions. "This comment speaks to the core of our auction solution. We enhance value and liquidity for one-of-a-kind properties by expertly marketing on a global scale, driving all potential interest to one place, at one time, and producing a timely, market-based transaction."
Designed by F. L. Bissinger, built by E. B. Mahoney, and landscaped by Gale Nurseries, Honeystone is an enchanting 20th century masterpiece. The residence features fine architectural details rarely seen in post-World War II construction, including hand-cut Pennsylvania granite and limestone, five gas-lit fireplaces of marble, wood and brick, and windows perfectly situated to maximize sun exposure and afford views of the gardens. Located at 500 Huston Road in Wayne, Pennsylvania, a pillar of Radnor Township, the property is only 45 minutes from downtown Philadelphia and 25 minutes from PHL.
