Description

Welcome to this custom built beauty featuring amazing vaulting ceilings, a lovely open floor plan,  gourmet kitchen, large pool, fully finished basement and so much more! Located in Media, just minutes from the ever-growing downtown in Wallingford-Swarthmore school district, this is a 4 bed (double master), 3 full, 2 1/2 bath home. Enter from front porch into the grand foyer where you will be welcomed w/ a 2 story ceiling open to the front sitting room, and a view straight through to the back of the home from the sitting room to dining to kitchen, family room all the way to the foliage in Smedley Park. As you will find throughout your tour, a lot of this main level is multi functional allowing you to arrange rooms and furniture in multiple ways custom to your family's needs. This front room has a wall of windows out to the front as well as an elegant wall of mirrors making the already large space appear even larger. This is wonderfully open to the dining room where you can easily fit a table fit for 10 w/ space to expand. Separating this front space and the back of the home is the incredible staircase. Custom with tile treads, 36" wide, and a landing that looks over the sitting room. Continuing into the home you will see the expansive gourmet kitchen with a 9' island, a Wolf double oven & 36" gas stove top, subzero fridge and side bar with double drawer refrigerators and pantry space. There is little to be desired here w/ the ample cabinetry/counter space. This eat-in kitchen is so welcoming I bet you can smell the gravy cooking! This again opens up to vaulted ceilings in a cozy living room w/ wood burning fireplace & stone surround. The space just floods w/ natural light from all the windows not only here but expanding out into what is now being used as an additional sitting room. W/ windows on 2 full walls of the room & a door that leads out to the trex deck. This room looks out over the backyard and connects not only to the main portion of the home but also to the first floor master (1 of 2). This bedroom w/ ensuite is perfect for generational family living, or even a home office/playroom. The ensuite is large w/ a jacuzzi tub, & stall shower. There is a walk-in closet in the room too. The hallway on other side of room leads to not only the powder room on this level but down to the laundry room which serves as a mudroom off the 2 car+ garage. Up the grand staircase you will be pleasantly surprised by a nice big foyer/hallway. Sprouting off this space is a primary bedroom, 2 add bedrooms, a walk-in cedar closet and hall bathroom. The primary bedroom off the back of the home is a beauty. It is flooded w/ natural light & large enough for any size furniture. From the main space you walk through the walk-in closet/dressing room. Beautiful custom closet w/ dressing/make-up table & end in the primary bath. Double vanities w/ tons of storage/ counters & a tiled shower. The 2 add bedrooms on this level are plenty large w/ ample closet space. Rounding out this level is the walkin cedar closet, perfect for seasonal clothing and the full hallbathrom with tub/shower combo & laundry shoot to laundry below! Lastly, the walk-out lower level is an entertainer's dream. Equipped w/ a living space that opens up to the patio/pool level, a large office w/ powder room, a gym, and 2nd kitchen. The 2nd kitchen is wonderful for large parties. Here you will find a Viking 6 burner range, 2nd fridge, tons of space for prep. The french doors open up to the back covered patio & the beautiful fenced in pool. The pool, w/ vinyl liner, is just lovely throughout the summer months! Plenty of space for grilling, entertaining & relaxing around the pool. Just beyond the fence is still a large backyard & shed bordering Smedley Park. So many amenities + location, while in a quiet neighborhood, is close to major routes, mins to downtown Media, parks & so much more. Welcome Home!
