    What's special

    A rare opportunity to own a classic Victorian Duplex in the heart of Media Borough. This spacious home offers a 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath apartment on the first and second floors and a 2-bedroom 1-bath apartment on the third floor. A covered front porch leads to the welcoming foyer of this charming Victorian, where you're greeted by soaring ceilings, rich hardwood floors, an ornate banister and an original decorative fireplace. To the right, the spacious living room features bay windows and a decorative fireplace, filling the space with natural light and character. Straight ahead, a flexible family room offers the option to serve as a first-floor bedroom, complete with an adjoining full bath—ideal for guests. A convenient half bath is located off the main hallway. The updated galley kitchen offers modern functionality and leads to the rear entrance and a large storage area. At the back of the home, the modern dining room is perfect for entertaining or everyday gatherings. The grand staircase leads to the second floor, where you'll find three generously sized bedrooms. One bedroom offers direct access to a full bathroom featuring a stall shower and dual sinks. An additional full bathroom is also located on this level and includes a convenient washer and dryer setup. The third floor is currently set up as a separate apartment with two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and its own kitchen. The layout also allows for easy reintegration into the main home if desired. The backyard offers a peaceful retreat with a thoughtfully landscaped sitting area. Mature plantings provide a sense of privacy, while a separate outdoor entrance to the basement adds convenience and functionality. Located just a short walk from Media’s vibrant downtown area, known as "Everybody’s Hometown." Enjoy a variety of restaurants, cafes, boutique shops, and "Dining Under the Stars."
