Built in 1912 by the Walton Brothers, this 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home is located in the sought-after Rose Tree Media School District, just minutes from downtown Media, SEPTA stations, and major highways (I-476, I-95, and Rt 1). The home is tucked away from the road and offers privacy, with an expansive, fully fenced front yard and a newly paved driveway. The detached 2-car garage has been converted into a conditioned home office space, with extra storage, and could easily be reverted back to a one-car garage if desired. Inside, the home’s original craftsmanship is showcased through hardwood floors, custom millwork, and period details. Featured in Philadelphia Magazine, the kitchen retains its historic character with butcher block countertops and custom cabinetry. The formal dining and living rooms offer a balance of charm and practicality, with the living room flooded with natural light from large bay windows. The first floor also features a half bath, a cozy hearth room, and a charming coffee bar that adds both warmth and functionality. Upstairs, two staircases lead to a reimagined second floor with a spacious Primary Bedroom, complete with a walk-in closet and ensuite bathroom. The Primary suite boasts a private patio—perfect for sipping morning coffee and enjoying the sunrise. Two additional bedrooms and a full bathroom complete the second floor. The finished attic offers a flexible space for a guest room, playroom, or studio. It includes plumbing and ample storage. The basement provides a large area with the potential to be finished, offering even more living space for the new owner’s needs. Recent updates include new power lines, an upgraded 200-amp electrical panel, refurbished original doors and windows, new gutters with a lifetime warranty, and fresh exterior paint. This home is being sold as-is, offering a rare opportunity to own a piece of history in a truly special setting. To offer you peace of mind as you settle into your new home, the sellers are providing a Home Warranty. It’s the perfect place to find comfort, space, and tranquility in your next chapter.
