Application No. 17-22
Property: 929 Merion Square Road, Gladwyne, PA 19035
Applicant: Jeff & Erin Addis
Applicant appeared before the HARB in July, when the application was tabled pending additional information. Proposed is a rear two-story addition to this stucco ca. 1874 house. Addition would incorporate an existing rear frame addition clad in horizontal siding and project beyond the home’s right side. The addition has been modified from the previous application in terms of the material and pitch of the new roof. Also newly proposed are a new front door and six new windows on the sides of the home’s historic portion, four on one side and two on the other. Those side walls are currently windowless.
THIS APPLICATION HAS BEEN TABLED.
Applicant appeared before the HARB in July for this development proposal on a triangular property bound by Old Lancaster Road and the railroad. The proposal is to renovate an existing contributing home at 507 Old Lancaster Road, demolish a contributing home at 503 Old Lancaster Road and build a new twin home on the site, and demolish a group of garages at 501 Old Lancaster Road and replace them with a new single family residence. The application has been altered to move the driveway serving the twins’ front-loading garages to the sides of the building (with detached/semi-detached garages), and to further re-configure the site plan utilizing Conditional Use incentives made available for historic resources. The HARB will need to evaluate the proposed subdivision, whether the proposed Conditional Use incentives are appropriate, and the architecture of the structures.
Next HARB meeting: Tuesday, October 3, 2017 @ 8:15 A.M.
