Welcome to 538 Farnum, this lovely maintained and updated home has had ONE owner. Arrive to your newer extra large driveway with professional landscape and great curb appeal. The flat, spacious lot and oversized 2 car garage are just the beginning of your tour. Enter to the welcoming foyer of this center hall colonial. Enjoy the sun drenched living room on your way to rear of the home where your eye will catch the gorgeous stone fireplace and first glimpse of the rear yard. The breakfast area features newer floors and opens up to the spacious kitchen. Granite countertops, newer appliances, small work space and easy access to the garage to unload groceries make this a no brainer. The mudroom , large coat closet and powder room complete this level. Before heading upstairs take a peek out of the newer french doors to see the massive deck, flat back yard and storage shed. The second floor hosts the large primary suite with great walk in closet and primary bathroom with new vanity and stall shower. Two very large bedrooms are serviced by the large hall bathroom with new vanity and floor. As if this wasn't enough don't forget to make your way to the basement where you have endless possibilities. Plenty of room for a playroom, workout space, bar, man/woman cave, whatever your heart desires. Thoughtfully designed, there is still plenty of storage and a large laundry area, and a whole house generator. Enjoy all that this incredible location has to offer, award winning school district, proximity to downtown Media with bars, restaurants, and shopping, easy access to highways and Philadelphia. Schedule your tour today or visit us at our open houses this weekend. Seller has asked that all offers be submitted by noon on Sunday, 2-16.-25. Thanks.
