2501 College Park Rd, Shaler, PA, 15101

Discover this rare and striking mid-century modern home, perfectly positioned on one of the highest points in the highly desirable College Park neighborhood. One of only seven original model homes built for the North Hills Home Builders Association Showcase in the mid-1960s, this home is a true architectural gem. Ideally situated on a premium wooded lot, tucked into surrounding mature trees and foliage, offering a sense of privacy while maintaining a striking presence at the center of the cul-de-sac —truly one of a kind— the home embodies timeless contemporary design with distinctive Art Deco influences, clean architectural lines, and a custom front entry that sets the tone for its unique character. The all-brick exterior is complemented by a completely new, expansive driveway and a rear-entry double-door integral garage. The sliding glass windows invite abundant natural light and create a seamless connection to the tranquil, wooded rear yard, offering hundreds of feet of unobstructed natural views. The open-concept interior features plaster-finished walls, original solid oak flooring, and full-height double-door closets in every bedroom, emphasizing both craftsmanship and functionality. The primary suite serves as a private retreat, thoughtfully positioned to overlook the rear and side yards, and includes a recently updated en-suite bath with renovated shower and plumbing. The lower level offers exceptional additional living space, including a fourth bedroom conveniently located adjacent to a spacious den/game room. This inviting area features a custom, original all-brick wood-burning fireplace with a full-length stone hearth sill, fully functional and recently enhanced with a stainless steel animal-entry-proof cap. The den/game room walks out to the rear outdoor patio through a large sliding glass door, creating an indoor-outdoor connection. Also featured on the lower level is a half bathroom and a separate laundry room with direct entry to the garage. Lovingly maintained by its original owner and offered for the first time since construction, this home represents a rare opportunity to own a true piece of architectural history—“the pick of the litter” for those with a discerning appreciation for original design, privacy, and an exceptional​​‌​​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​‌​​ location.
