*Please don’t drive onto the property without an appointment* Indulge in a serene location on (almost) 6 acres. 1685 Valley Road offers the peace of country living while only being a few minutes to shopping, restaurants and more. This beautiful home has evolved with quality and grace since it was originally built in 1965. In 2018 a complete renovation took place taking the home down to the studs. Careful thought was given to additions that were added and how spaces were to be opened up to create the breathtaking home it is today. Not only was the home transformed architecturally but also included a $60K Geothermal HVAC system to provide top notch heating and cooling comfort. This beautiful home is set back from the street with two stone pillars at the driveway entrance which provide elegance and sophistication. The pillars are wired for gates should the next owner want to add this feature. This magnificent modern farmhouse-style home, complete with inviting covered front porch, will leave you with a feeling of warmth and beauty from the moment you walk through the front door. The two-story foyer with gleaming hardwood floors make an immediate impact with hand-crafted wainscoting throughout. A spacious living room sits a step down to the right complete with wood burning fireplace for extra warmth and coziness. Just off of the foyer is a large study which could also serve as a first floor bedroom should one be needed. At the far end of the foyer is a spacious formal dining room complete with divided light doors that lead to a side patio which is perfect for taking in the picturesque outdoors. The beautiful gourmet kitchen is a chefs delight. Rich grey and white marble counter-tops offer generous workspace for any meal. No expense was spared in the ultra high end Wolf 6 burner stove and double oven. A pot filler is conveniently above the stove. A French style Subzero refrigerator/freezer are a must along with the Bosch dishwasher and microwave to perfectly round out the kitchen. The kitchen offers views into both the family room and breakfast room for today’s sought after open floor plan. A huge walk-in pantry complete with shelving and two double closets are perfect for storing everything you need for everyday living. A butler’s pantry just off of the family room comes complete with wine fridge and wet bar - a perfect place for today’s mixology. When you want to spend more time outside on one of the three outdoor living areas, you’ll enjoy stepping out from the family room to relax and enjoy. An expansive mudroom runs from the two-car garage all the way to the back of the house offering plenty of storage. A dog shower is wisely located inside a large closet/storage in the garage. This comes complete with doors opening to the driveway making a perfect place to park your John Deere. On the second level of the home you will find a primary suite oasis. Expansive in size, with tray ceiling & gas fireplace, this is your welcome retreat at the end of a long day. A large walk-in closet and gorgeous light filled primary bath were also crafted with great attention to size and detail. A large sitting room across from primary bath is currently used as a nursery. This can easily be transformed into another walk-in closet or can also be used as a home office for extra privacy. Four additional large family bedrooms are each serviced by two tastefully finished Jack & Jill bathrooms. The large laundry room with plenty of cabinets for storage, closet and laundry tub ensure this area will always have everything needed to run an organized home. For extra fun for family and friends, a custom built tree house and above ground pool will provide loads of entertainment for years to come. And if you’re looking for a little exercise and adventure, exploring your (almost) 6 acres will certainly provide hours of enjoyment. Don’t miss this special property. Some furniture items are negotiable to be included with purchase.
