Property Description
Welcome to 1685 Valley Rd on 5.59 Acres situated on a secluded lot. The home was only built in the 60s, but the original outside walls were built of cinderblock construction. (A lot less worries or headaches of remediation here, that can sometimes come with new construction) truly a rare find in these parts. Better yet there was a complete renovation where it was gutted to the studs, additions added, spaces opened to create the modern space for todays living, and to top it all off a $60k Geothermal System was done for all your heating and cooling needs. All only completed in 2018. At the entrance of the property, you are greeted by 2 custom stone columns with large lighted lanterns on top ( built and wired for gates if you desire). It is here where you get that feeling you are entering a private estate with its long tree-lined driveway that leads to this beautiful modern farmhouse-style home. The flagstone walkway guides you to the new traditional-looking open front porch. Here is where you enter into a stunning 2 story foyer with a hanging chandelier. To the right of foyer, you have the 24x18 Formal Living Room which is truly jaw-dropping not only for its size but the custom picture shadow boxes, crown moldings, wide plank flooring, and the 44x30 inch wood burning fireplace hearth finished with a columned TIGER OAK fireplace surround. You can only just imagine how perfect the family Holiday gatherings would be in this room. To the left you have the formal Powder room and office.( this is a large office and can be converted to possible 1st fl bed and bath if needed for in-law suite ). There is a formal dining room separate from the kitchen which features its own private slate patio. A family Room in eye view of the kitchen with another fireplace. Custom features for modern-day living include a mudroom with a back entry and garage entry with a private 2nd powder room on this floor. This Kitchen could be featured in Architectural Digest, featuring SUBZERO Bosch & Wolf appliances, with a custom wet bar, glass cabinets, under cabinet lighting, shelved walk-in pantry, and new breakfast room addition with lots of glass windows to look out at the majestic views of the yard. There are 2 composite decks and a flagstone deck in 3 separate areas on the first level. The family room sliders lead to the largest deck for entertaining, breakfast room sliders leads to the other to enjoy your grilling and outside dinners. The Dining room doors leads to the flagstone deck which faces the spacious side yard and would be an ideal area for a future screened-in porch or 4 season room overlooking your future pool if you so desire. The long 2nd fl center hall, lined with beautiful iron sconces, leads you to the laundry room with lots of cabinets and sink. This second floor features 4 bedrooms with each having its own Jack & Jill bathroom set up. The Grandiose entrance to the master suite features a double door entry to the master suite. This suite features a custom tray ceiling, Gas fireplace, 2 regular closets, a walk-in closet, and a bonus room (room over garage ). The bonus room is presently used as another walk-in closet but can be a nursery, master TV den or 2nd office whatever you require. Master bathroom in Carrera marble w/72-inch vanity, massage tub, and multi-function shower w/ 4 jets for that spa-like feeling shower in the morning. Every finishing touch has been thought of in this beautiful master suite. After all this, if you require more living space, you have a large open high ceiling basement ready for finishing anyway you want, that has been French drained and plumbed for future bathrooms. Award-Winning Rose Tree Media SD, close to West Chester close to 476 for City Access. The location is perfect for maneuvering through all local counties. In comparison to new construction you are getting 5 Acres and Privacy as a bonus!! Don't miss this rare find!! Check above for the virtual tour!!
