Remarks:
Armand Carroll designed this home in 1960 for Ralph and Suzanne Roberts.  The large clearstory windows running down the main axis of the residence, the long overhangs at the entrance, and the combination of scuptural wood and massive stone fireplace all show the the influence of Carroll's time at Taliesin. The Roberts first hired Louis Kahn to design a home on Apalogen Rd in East Falls  which remained unbuilt, they then turned their attention to this very private 3 acre lot with architect Armand de Cortieux Carroll. The result is a unique and special home with original details in excellent condition. Suzanne and Ralph Roberts gave the home the name Sural Lodge formed with the first letters of their first names.  This home is not a listing of Craig Wakefield.  Due to the architectural significance of the home it is included on the website www.ModernHomesPhiladelphia.com.  If anyone looking at this site would like to learn more and possibly visit this home with Craig representing you, please call cell 267-973-9567. Craig works with Coldwell Banker Realty Corp, 1631 Locust St Philadelphia Pa 19103, office 215-735-0700.
