Well, you probably haven't seen a listing like THIS very often! You're invited to 321 Farnum Rd .,walking distance to Media for shopping & dining & fun! (circa 1950) in Upper Providence Twp. Something here for everybody in their 'home town'! So exciting! The stone & stucco cape cod home sits pretty on almost a 1/2 acre, back off the road, at the end of the blacktopped d/way that has room for multiple cars. It is peacefully enveloped in lush, mature landscaping, bushes & trees, w/an amazing back yard that will be perfect for any kind of events you plan. Check out the expansive, newly grouted, slate patio complete w/a pergola! Just picture the parties you will have here w/family & friends! The main house boasts 4 BR & 2 1/2 Baths. Some amenities: loads of CF's, recessed lights, newly painted 'Agreeable Gray' walls t/o & new carpeting, (9/24 ),freshly silver-coated roof over the addition(10/24 ), ductwork cleaning, 200 amp electric, power washing, tree pruning, Lawn Doctor lime application, high end HVAC system, 2 brand new mini-splits in the 2nd floor BR's that cost over $11,000, & 6-panel doors t/o. The surprise is that, above the oversized 2-car garage is almost 500 sq ft of bonus space! Think of all the ways you could utilize it! This whole building was custom designed so that the seller could practice as a therapist from here. Do you have a need like that? Think about for a home-based business, dance, music or art studio, exercise get-away, teenager's happy place, private guest house or in-law space where everyone reunites at the main house for meals and togetherness. The possibilities are endless!( It cannot be rented & cannot have a kitchen, though.) The whole place has been painted & new carpets installed. Let's run thru the main house. The inviting covered front porch gives entry to a spacious, fireside LR complete w/a huge bay window that looks out to the front yard. The DR is just off the good-sized kitchen that shows off tons of cherry cabinets (some of which have glass doors), granite c/tops, stainless appliances, a pantry, wide & deep soft close drawers, stainless sink w/gooseneck faucet w/an opening in the wall w/pendant light so you can see out to the Family Room, a brand new garbage disposal, a fridge w/icemaker, under counter lights , 5-burner stove, a $700+ new fingerprint resistant DW -9/24.The focal point of the FR is the raised hearth FP w/arched brick insert for that dramatic effect & a wood mantle. This room also comes w/yet another a wonderful bay window w/deep sill. The LR, DR and FR have wood look engineered floors. There is a cute PR off the FR. What was once a breezeway is now a finished sunroom. So great to have all this extra space! This room connects the house to the garage. It's tiled flooring and fabulous sliding French doors make you want to take pause & relax for a while. The back slider provides access to the amazing yard surrounded by a black aluminum fence. There is access from here to the very large 2-car garage. w/2 windows, newer doors w/electric openers & block walls. Amazing space here for all the extras too! The primary BR, that boasts ceiling beam accents & a double mirrored closet.. and one other BR can be found on the first floor. How convenient! The upgraded full bath has been carefully planned out. The W/I shower tile is so warm & inviting. Take note of a bidet attached to the toilet. BR's 3 & 4 are on the 2nd floor along w/another full bath! The completely finished lower level is quite expansive. New luxury flooring was just laid before listing. This space is open for whatever you want to do with it. There is a storage area under the steps, huge double closet w/lots of shelves, an egress window, BI shelves, 2 glass block windows & an maple kitchenette w/fridge. Party Time!
