Guess-the-Address in Upper Providence! Clue #1

I have just listed an exquisite mid-century modern cottage in scenic Upper Providence just a bike ride from downtown Media!  As the owners madly prepare their home for your viewing pleasure, I will tease you with clues!  The first person to correctly guess the address of this home wins a $25 Trader Joe’s gift card! (You can email me with your guesses or post them in the comments!)  Happy guessing!

Reaching out from a hillside, overlooking the trees,

This mid-century modern has features to please,

Guess the address, I think you might,

If you’ve seen this maple embrace the post light…

This is just one of the gorgeous Japanese maples on this beautiful property!

Good food and fresh air and the company of our neighbors was a perfect way to end a perfect week!
