Drexel Lane Residence

This custom home on the Main Line outside Philadelphia showcases a modern approach to residential architecture that is both warm and livable. Designed by Gnome Architects with interiors by Far Studio, the house brings together clean lines, natural light, and carefully curated materials to create a space that feels contemporary yet timeless.

Expansive black-framed windows maximize natural light and connect the interiors to the surrounding landscape, while vaulted ceilings and an open stair add drama and openness. In the kitchen, a sculptural hood, natural stone surfaces, and custom cabinetry combine functionality with elevated design. Living spaces are anchored by a modern fireplace and accented with built-in shelving, blending architecture and interior design seamlessly.

Throughout the home, thoughtful detailing from the striking powder room vanity to the balance of wood, stone, and plaster emphasizes craftsmanship and character. The result is a sophisticated residence tailored for modern living in one of Philadelphia’s most desirable neighborhoods.
