Extremely rare opportunity to own a piece of Rose Valley history. For the first time in 56 years this home, known as âThe Butterfly Houseâ because of the projecting wings on both sides of the structure, is available for purchase. This home was designed by the famous architect William Lightfoot Price. Price designed buildings and homes that dot the landscape of Philly neighborhoods such as Germantown and Overbrook Farms as well as suburban locations in Wayne and Media (Media Armory). Price pioneered the use of reinforced concrete in the design of hotels and railroad stations from Atlantic City to Chicago. Price also had a modern view of community and is credited with being the founder of the Rose Valley Arts and Crafts Colony as well as nearby Arden, DE. Both boroughs were envisioned as utopian communities where artisans from all walks of life could live together, share their creative talents and raise their families in a tight knit community. Price believed that his designs should be beautiful and functional while always reflecting the craftsmanâs humanity. Over a century later, Priceâs architectural and utopian vision continue to provide a very unique living experience for the residents of Rose Valley and it is considered one of the most desirable communities in Delaware County. The cottages of Porter Lane are inspired by the English Arts and Crafts Movement. The âButterfly Houseâ, located at 1 Porter Lane, is the largest of the original properties on the street and sits on just under 1 acre of ground (.9).
