While not new construction this home feels modern and secure in its updates as well potential. Positioned on a prominent corner lot at Edgemont and Fifth Street, this unique home offers exceptional flexibility with both comfortable living spaces and a dedicated home office. It as a rare one off opportunity for a stunning corner property in the center/best location in Media with a plot that provides a potential opportunity to build. Walking distance to the elementary school, parks and recreation fields, and the amazingly vibrant State Street where shops, restaurants and local businesses thrive and is at the center of local events like the now famous Media 5 Mile Run. Also conveniently close to regional rail, PHL and center city Phila.

Entertainment is a breeze with a dedicated pool room that includes a beverage fridge, bar and full bathroom—perfect for hosting or creating a fun at-home retreat. Upstairs, you'll find five spacious bedrooms and a full hall bathroom with both a tub and a shower, offering ample accommodations for family and guests alike. Outdoor living is just as impressive, featuring a charming stone-covered side porch, a large in-ground pool, an outdoor kitchen with beverage fridge and a fully finished basement for additional recreation or storage. A two-car garage adds both convenience and functionality. Located just steps from the shops, dining, and energy of downtown Media, this home is a rare find that offers both character and versatility in an unbeatable location. Don’t miss this incredible opportunity to own a truly special property in one of the area’s most sought-after communities.
