About 597 Manchester Ave
Rarely does a home this special come on the market—affordable, updated, and truly move-in ready! Just one mile from downtown Media Borough, this charming home offers easy access to fantastic shopping, top-rated restaurants, lively street events, theater, and so much more. Freshly painted throughout, this home is ready for its next owner. A brand-new roof (installed in 2023) provides peace of mind, eliminating any "what if" worries. The large covered back porch oasis is one of my favorite things and the way it leads into the fenced back yard makes it just perfect for family gatherings, book club meetings or just hanging out with friends. Nestled in a quaint, village-like setting with excellent walkability and close proximity to public transportation, convenience is at your doorstep. Located in the top-rated school district of Swarthmore-Wallingford, this property is not just a home but a smart long-term investment. With quick access to I-95, Delaware, Philadelphia, and just 20 minutes from Philadelphia International Airport, commuting is a breeze. Don’t wait—schedule your showing today and make this wonderful home yours!
