About This Property

In the heart of Media Borough, 131 W Seventh Street presents a cozy, bright haven tailored to address the needs of modern living with serenity and style. This beautifully renovated 3-bedroom, 1.1-bathroom 1920s Craftsman Bungalow has been updated with modern standards while retaining the original details and style that are unique from that era. The house is south-facing, which offers a bright and cheery refuge from the outside world while feeling connected with nature. It has many special characteristics, such as archways, hardwood floors, ample lighting, and high quality carpentry, that make this a unique Borough home.

Imagine a busy week, where time for culinary creativity is scarce. This is where 131 W Seventh Street takes center stage with its thoughtfully designed kitchen, boasting beautiful custom cabinetry, soapstone counters, filtered drinking water, stainless steel appliances, Marmoleum flooring, well-endowed lighting, and a subway tile backsplash. Meal preparation is not just a task here; it's a pleasure. As the sun sets on your bustling day, the living room with fireplace and built-in bookshelves or the cozy family room invite you to unwind in comfort.

Upstairs, you'll find three well-appointed bedrooms, one with a skylight, and a fully updated 1920s-style bathroom with a skylight. On the main floor, an additional updated 1920s-style powder room with mosaic tile flooring adds to the property's charm. A full, unfinished basement provides ample storage and expansion possibilities, but also includes a newer high efficiency Buderus boiler and hot water tank, as well as space for laundry with high efficiency Bosch washer and dryer and a soapstone laundry sink.

Outside, the deep backyard provides space for barbecues, birthday parties and gatherings. The 2-car detached garage with loft storage (in addition to the large driveway that provides 4+ car off-street parking), could also become an accessory dwelling unit.

This property is not just about the house, which is exceptional; it's about its prime location in Media Borough. Discover the culinary delights of State Street's restaurants, take a leisurely stroll to Trader Joe's, and immerse yourself in community events like Dining Under the Stars, Media Theatre performances, and the Roots Ramble-all just steps away from this gem of a home nestled in a quiet neighborhood.

This hero of convenience extends beyond leisure and entertainment, offering proximity to public transportation, Philadelphia International Airport, Center City Philadelphia, and Wilmington, Delaware, all within 2 hours of both Washington DC and New York City, ensuring your adventures are boundless.

131 W Seventh Street isn't just a house; it's your retreat from life's daily hustle and bustle. Don't miss this opportunity to simplify your life and connect with the vibrant community around you. Contact us today to make 131 W Seventh Street your new address-a place where convenience, comfort, and beauty come together seamlessly and stylishly.
