Property Description
This classic 1955 ranch in the beloved Riddlewood community of Media delivers warmth, character, and the outdoor space to match - nearly half an acre in the esteemed Rose Tree Media School District. The living room anchors the home, centered on a handsome wood-burning fireplace. Original hardwood floors throughout. Oversized picture windows in the front and back flood the first floor with natural light. The dining room and kitchen flow naturally from the living space, overlooking the expansive backyard - making indoor-outdoor living effortless. Downstairs, the expansive finished basement sits above grade, functioning as true additional living space that lets in light and provides direct yard access. A second full bath makes it genuinely versatile: home office, playroom, guest suite, workout space. Add in the substantial storage throughout. Nearly half an acre of lush front and back yard - rare for the area - gives you room to breathe, play, and garden in a way most suburban properties simply don't allow. And the location delivers - minutes drive from the charming shops and restaurants of downtown Media, walking distance from Wolff's Apple House and the local swim club, with easy access to Route 1, 352, and I-476 making commutes to Philadelphia, Wilmington, and the Main Line a breeze. One of the most sought-after addresses and school districts in Delaware County, this is one of those neighborhoods people actively seek out and rarely leave.
