Description

Welcome to 307 South Avenue, nestled in the heart of “Everyone’s Hometown”, Media borough.

A charming picket fence surrounds this home while an updated paver walkway and steps lead you to the covered front porch, just one of your four options for sitting and relaxing outdoors: whether it be enjoying a book on the front porch or entertaining on your large rear deck and back patio or sipping coffee on your master bedroom balcony . Inside on the first level you’ll find a sun-drenched, wide-open floor plan with hardwood floors, high ceilings with high hat lights and plentiful windows. The living room features a fireplace converted to gas while maintaining the original tile surround and an open flow to the dining and kitchen areas. The dining area is large and open to the fully updated kitchen, perfect for hosting holiday get-togethers, or intimate meals with friends or family. The bright and open kitchen includes ample soft close cabinetry, updated appliances, quartz countertops, an island with electric outlets, and a large pantry. This level is completed by a large deck off the kitchen that includes steps down to the large, level yard containing a welcoming patio with firepit. Up the beautifully restored, ornate staircase to the second floor, you will find the Master bedroom with ensuite bathroom and sitting room (could be a nursery), with private balcony. Also located on the second floor you will find the second full bathroom and second bedroom which is currently being used as a home office. On the third floor you will find two additional generously sized bedrooms, and a third full bathroom. All bedrooms have ceiling fans. The ample, walk-out basement houses the laundry. This space allows plenty of space for storage or can be finished if desired. Convenient exit to yard and patio. This home is a true walker’s paradise. You are located within steps to the heart of the quaint borough of Media with plentiful options for shopping, dining, entertainment, parks and playgrounds, the free library, transportation including the regional rail, and the plentiful community events that Media borough has to offer, with its dining under the stars, parades and craft and food festivals.
