Situated in a woodland setting on 1.32 acres, this special home combines historic elements from the original house, dating back to the early 1700s, with architectural elements from various additions throughout the years. The renovations were thoughtfully designed to capitalize on the tranquil setting by bringing in natural light with lots of windows and by using raw materials such as Douglas fir for trim and flooring, steel for the open staircase and many other special details. The renovations have created an inviting living space making the house feel current yet also honoring the historic elements including rough hewn beams, wide plank floors, deep window sills and many other features unique to that era. Ultimately the combination of old and new has created a magazine-worthy home in a stunning setting! This one-of-a-kind home offers a variety of flex spaces and outdoor entertaining spaces - including a front courtyard surrounded by a stone wall to admire the western sunset views and a rear screened porch. There is a springhouse with a small pond, the original 2-story barn and some remaining farm equipment, and a vegetable garden - all adding to the bucolic setting. The property includes over 25 native tree species including mature oak trees, a variety of beautiful ornamental flowering trees and many varieties of magnolias. It's rare to find a home that is historic, beautifully updated and practical for today's living and even more unusual to find a property, in a neighborhood (on a cul-de-sac street), close to downtown Media and near to SEPTA's Elwyn Station providing easy access into Philadelphia. This home is in the Rose-Tree Media school district (award-winning) yet feels like you are in rural Pennsylvania! This is a dream for any person who has an appreciation for nature and discerning taste!
