JMD: The family that built it, Sheble, lived in rented house nearby before this was built. Prior to this they lived in some nice Queen Anne house in Oak Lane (I think the Cheltenham portion of it). I recall seeing photos of it when I interviewed a Sheble family member who was living in the family's old summer home in the Poconos. It may have also been done by Pearson since it was from the same period.

1906 DC: Sydney L, investments, h Carpenter Station
1910 census: Carpenter Ln.
1920 census: 129 Carpenter Ln.
prev attrib mistaken. Note fromTS:
‘129 Carpenter Lane aka "Stone Gables," was designed for Sidney Longstreth Wright by C. Wharton Churchman and E.J. Holmes and built in 1915.
‘Until 1912, when his first wife died, Wright lived in "Cliff Lawn" on Carpenter Lane, just above the Carpenter Station. King's Philadelphia and Notable Philadelphians includes a photo of that house. King describes it as follows:
"On one of the choicest elevations in Pelham, formerly part of the well-known Carpenter estate, amid several acres of lovely lawn and hardwood shade trees, stands the substantial and beautiful Colonial stone residence of Sydney L. Wright, the banker and broker, and director of various corporations." "Stone Gables" was built for Wright and his new wife, Kate Lewis (m. 1915).
‘It's possible, indeed likely, that "Cliff Lawn" was a Pearson house or that it was modified by Pearson. One other possible lead: S.L. Wright had the house next door to us (a fine colonial revival at 117 Carpenter Lane) built circa 1905-06 for his daughter Henrietta and her husband Robert Lea. It's possible that this was Pearson's handiwork.
