Property Description
Welcome to 134 Lakeview Drive! Nestled on 1.84 acres of stunningly landscaped grounds, this meticulously maintained Tudor home is a true architectural gem, making its debut on the market for the first time in 46 years. The residence features a distinctive open floor plan and expansive windows that bathe the interior in natural light, seamlessly blending modern convenience with classic charm. As you arrive, a long, inviting driveway leads you into a serene oasis, complemented by a brick pathway flanked by lush greenery. Upon entering, you’re greeted by a spacious foyer adorned with original flagstone flooring that sets the tone for the elegance within. To your left, the living room offers a bright, airy atmosphere with a wall of windows showcasing the picturesque forest views.. A striking stone wood-burning fireplace, flanked by custom built-in bookcases, adds warmth and character. Hardwood flooring extends through the dining room and much of the home, with plush carpeting concealing beautiful hardwood underneath. The raised hearth dining room is equally inviting, featuring a brick wood-burning fireplace, ideal for relaxed gatherings and making s’mores during those crisp fall and winter evenings. Direct access from the dining room leads to a charming slate patio equipped with a natural gas grill – no more running out for propane! The windows overlook the patio, creating an idyllic setting for alfresco dining. The expansive tree-lined backyard, complete with a creek at the bottom of the property, provides ample flat space for recreation, presenting exciting possibilities. The kitchen, conveniently located off the dining room, is a culinary haven with abundant storage, preparation space, and a breakfast bar, making entertaining a breeze. This updated gourmet kitchen features dual wall ovens, Corian countertops with double stainless-steel sinks, a stainless-steel dishwasher, a Subzero paneled refrigerator, and a gas cooktop with a stainless-steel hood venting directly outside. Adjacent to the kitchen, the mudroom connects to the attached two-car garage, providing practical convenience. To the right of the foyer, you’ll find a stylish powder room and a comfortable den with built-in cabinetry. The second floor reveals a luxurious primary bedroom complete with an updated en-suite bathroom and two closets, plus a versatile space for a home office or sitting area. Two additional bedrooms share an updated hall bathroom, while the fourth bedroom serves as a guest room with its own en-suite. One bedroom is currently utilized as a home office, and rest assured, hardwood flooring lies beneath the carpet. Descend the staircase to discover the expansive finished lower level, featuring a large gas fireplace and built-in cabinets, and ample storage. A dedicated room for a pool table leads to a workshop and hidden walk-in wine cellar, along with a second powder room and a laundry room equipped with a laundry chute. Many of the home’s original features have been lovingly preserved, ensuring timeless charm. Additional highlights include public water and sewer (installed in 2015), a private, tranquil setting, an exceptional layout, and access to the award-winning Rose-Tree Media School District. Enjoy the convenience of being just a short walk to Rose Tree Park, which offers a variety of year-round activities, and relish the proximity to downtown Media – ”Everybody’s Hometown.” Don’t miss this opportunity to make this exquisite property your own!
