Welcome to 117 Locust Lane – a charming 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath raised ranch located in the highly desirable Media area, and in the highly acclaimed Wallingford-Swarthmore School District. Located on a quiet cul-de-sac, this home offers direct walking access from the cul-de-sac to expansive green space featuring a playground, a brand-new soccer field, and open areas where locals often gather for casual games of pickleball. The area is also dog-friendly, making it perfect for the whole family — pets included. This one-of-a-kind home is rich in history and character, featuring bricks salvaged from the historic Chinese Wall near 15th and Market Street in Philadelphia, which was demolished in 1958. Step inside to a welcoming foyer with slate flooring. From there, enter the spacious family room, where rustic slate floors, exposed wooden-beamed ceilings—crafted from timber sourced from an 18th-century log house in Honeybrook—and a cozy wood-burning fireplace creates a warm, inviting atmosphere. Just off the family room, you’ll find the laundry and utility area, complete with carpeted flooring, built-in cabinetry, a laundry tub, and all the home's mechanical systems. Adding even more local charm, the downstairs hallway floor includes bricks repurposed from an old sidewalk in Media. A powder room with laminate flooring and overhead lighting is conveniently located nearby. Upstairs, the main level offers a bright and airy living room featuring hardwood floors and elegant crown molding. The living space flows seamlessly into the dining room, which also boasts hardwood floors, crown molding, built-in cabinetry, and a charming Dutch door leading to the rear patio. The kitchen offers an electric cooktop and picturesque views of the backyard through classic casement windows. Nearby, a recently updated full bathroom includes ceramic tile, a marble sink, and a tub/shower combo with sliding doors. The primary bedroom features hardwood floors and two closets. Two additional bedrooms—also with hardwood floors—offer versatile space for children, guests, or a home office. Pull down stairs allow access to a full length attic that is floored for storage or potential to add more living space. Beyond its distinctive architectural details, this home is ideally located close to local shopping, grocery stores, restaurants, and beautiful Gouley Park. Easy access to I-476 ensures a smooth commute to wherever you need to go. Don’t miss your chance to own a truly unique home in a prime location—schedule your tour today!
