About This Home

Nestled on a quiet, tree-lined street in the heart of one of Delaware County’s most beloved communities, 526 Vernon Street in Media, PA is a classic colonial twin home completely remodeled this year. This 4-bedroom, 1.5-bath home offers a perfect blend of character, comfort, and convenience—all within the highly regarded Wallingford-Swarthmore School District. Step inside to find a comfortable living room with a practical open layout. Entrance hall, a home office (or guest room) large living room, dining room. The all new kitchen features ample cabinetry, brand new stove, and a kind of cozy charm. A side door leads to a freshly painted deck for summer cook outs overlooking a tremendous level rear yard and garden area with a privacy fence! There is a private parking pad to the rear.
Upstairs, three bedrooms with shiny plank flooring share an updated hall bath. A stairwell leads to a spacious 4th bedroom with its own heat source. There are newer windows throughout.
The unfinished basement provides excellent storage—ideal for utility, projects, or future finishing.
This home is part of a walkable borough with something for everyone. Media—offers a vibrant downtown, weekly seasonal events like Dining Under the Stars, and a host of independent shops, cafes, and restaurants along nearby State Street. Whether you’re catching live music, browsing the local farmer’s market, or dining on a summer evening, life here moves at just the right pace. Commuters will appreciate the SEPTA Regional Rail station, with trains to Center City Philadelphia, 15 minute drive to Philadelphia International Airport, and only 25 minutes to Wilmington, Delaware—making this home a true hub for work and travel alike. The street was just repaved.
With major updates just completed, 526 Vernon Street is move-in ready and waiting to welcome its next chapter.
