Description

Welcome to 24 War Trophy Lane, a lovingly maintained home set on a beautifully landscaped nearly half-acre lot in the highly desirable Riddlewood community, part of the award-winning Rose Tree Media School District. A long, freshly sealed driveway guides you to a carport and side entrance, while the formal front entry leads into a sunlit living room featuring hardwood floors, fresh neutral paint, a coat closet, and a large picture window that frames serene views of mature landscaping and a colorful Japanese maple. The dining room flows seamlessly into the kitchen, which offers warm wood cabinetry, a stainless steel refrigerator and dishwasher (just 3 years old), and a propane-fueled GE gas stove installed in 2024. The entire main level is light and airy, thanks to an abundance of windows and a sliding glass door that opens onto a rear deck—a space to entertain or enjoy your morning coffee as you look out to a fenced backyard retreat. Down the hall, you'll find three bedrooms, each with hardwood flooring and calming neutral tones, along with a full bathroom with a large vanity and tub/shower combo. A hallway linen closet completes this level. The finished lower level is a standout feature, nearly doubling your living space. A spacious 22x19 great room is accented by custom built-ins with stacked stone detail, recessed lighting, soft carpeting, and neutral finishes. A full bathroom with a tub/shower on this level adds comfort and flexibility, whether you're entertaining, working from home, or hosting guests. Storage will never be a concern—this home offers two closets in the finished basement, a large utility/workshop room, a dedicated laundry room with an additional closet, and a bonus cedar closet perfect for storing seasonal items. Step outside and you’ll discover a suburban oasis. The deck overlooks a well-proportioned, fenced backyard with just the right amount of privacy, special plantings (including a beautiful Fringe Tree), and a large shed for all your outdoor tools. Major systems have been thoughtfully updated: Furnace and oil tank (2024), A/C condenser (2023), Hot water heater (2022), Leaf Filter gutter protection (2022), replacement windows and sliding door (2011), and whole-house insulation including attic (2023). Riddlewood is a close-knit community with a voluntary HOA and its own swim club. Enjoy easy access to shopping and dining at the Promenade at Granite Run, the energy of downtown Media Borough, and a quick commute from the nearby Elwyn train station. This home offers the perfect blend of comfort, space, and neighborhood charm—ready for its next chapter with you.
