Property Description
Located in the highly sought-after Fordell Farms neighborhood, this stunning 3,694 sq ft stone residence is a rare gem, offering timeless elegance, exceptional functionality, and an unbeatable setting. Meticulously maintained, this 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home is perfectly designed for today's transitional lifestyle.
Set on approximately 1.33 serene acres, the property backs to the Hildacy Nature Conservancy, Green Bank Horse Farm, and Crum Creek, creating a peaceful, private retreat just minutes from the heart of Media.
The custom, light-filled eat-in kitchen is a chef's dream—featuring granite countertops, 5-burner gas stove with pot filler, Kenmore Elite dishwasher, microwave/convection oven, under-mount farmhouse sink, and refrigerator with in-door ice and water. Rich hardwood floors extend into the expansive family room, which boasts vaulted ceilings, wood-burning fireplace, skylights with Hunter Douglas remote-controlled shades, and floor-to-ceiling bookcases—perfect for cozy evenings or entertaining guests.
The formal living and dining rooms provide classic charm and ample space for gatherings, while the first-floor bedroom with en-suite bath offers flexibility as a guest suite or home office. A convenient laundry/mudroom completes the main level.
Upstairs, the primary suite features an updated en-suite bathroom with a soaking tub, stall shower, double vanity, and generous closet space. Two additional bedrooms offer large closets and share an updated hall bath.
The lower level walk-out daylight basement (drywalled and ready for flooring) adds an additional 1,500 sq ft of potential living space—ideal for a teen hangout, media room, or in-law suite. It includes a workshop area for DIY projects or hobbies.
Step outside to a bucolic backyard with a spacious deck overlooking the trees. LED floodlights illuminate the tree canopy at night, creating a magical ambiance. Additional exterior features include Leviton timers on the front and rear lanterns and hardwood floors throughout most of the home.
