199 WOODWARD RD Media, PA 19063

Yes! A quintessential Rose Valley home: from the steeply pitched gable roof, a soaring chimney that tapers as it reaches towards the sky, groupings of windows that allow the sunlight to stream down the stairs to the solid oak flooring, and decorative half-timbering that winds and curves to the horizontal timbers on the exterior. This is what you ve been waiting for!The entrance was part of an asymmetrical assemblage of architectural elements prevalent in Tudors of the time: some decorative and some meant to provide protection, like the roof over the door embellished with vertical beams and held up by thick, bold posts all on the far left of the home. This allows for a generous Living Room surrounded by windows and archways; open to the turned staircase, formal Dining Room with classic large windows overlooking the patio and backyard, hall to Kitchen and side Sunroom. You ll enjoy the wood burning fireplace as well, with its hand chiseled stone surround and wooden mantel; it s directly across from the Dining room, bringing warmth and comfort to gatherings of family or friends. The Sunroom adds functionality to the 1st floor, with room for exercise equipment, a desk or play toys. The original wood flooring shines throughout all 3 stories and has recently been exposed, refinished and then decoratively painted in the Kitchen.
