Steeped in history and timeless charm, this captivating Blue Bell home was once the country retreat of actress Billie Burke, best known as Glinda, the Good Witch from The Wizard of Oz. Built in 1900, this 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom residence retains much of its original character while offering modern comforts. From the moment you step inside, you’ll be enchanted by the home’s distinctive details, including ornate door handles, intricate crown molding, radiant heat, and beautifully preserved fireplaces that add warmth and elegance. The eat-in kitchen is a standout feature, highlighted by a striking exposed brick arched window in the breakfast area. The finished lower level provides additional living space, perfect for a home office, media room, or recreation area. Outside, the lushly landscaped half-acre lot is a private oasis with a covered front porch and an inviting in-ground pool, ideal for entertaining or quiet relaxation. A new heater was installed in the pool approximately 2 years ago. A shared driveway leads to a private detached garage for convenience.
