Location is everything at 653 Valerie Drive! This traditional home is situated on a spectacular corner lot in a quiet, private neighborhood, located in Marple Newtown School District and just minutes from the Episcopal Academy and Delaware County Christian School, as well as many nationally renowned Country Clubs, colleges and universities. This beautiful home features a spacious kitchen that was completely renovated in 2017. The stainless steel appliances, white cabinets, and quartz countertops make this timeless kitchen overlooking the patio an inviting space for family and friends to gather comfortably around the island. Extra storage and counter space is available in the cabinet divider that separates the sunken Family Room from the kitchen. Step down into the Great Room to relax in the sitting area by the stone (gas) fireplace or sit in the open area with skylights and a wall of windows overlooking the beautiful 40-foot pool and spa. This is also the perfect space for a long kitchen table, and the sliding doors provide access to the large slate patio that includes a gas hookup for outdoor barbecues. On the opposite side of the Great Room is a door providing easy access to the side facing 2-car garage. In addition, the main level includes a formal dining room located next to the kitchen.

To complete the main level, the bright and cheery Living Room includes a home office work space area. Upstairs, the second floor features an impressive primary bedroom suite including 2 closets, bathroom, and built-in shelves. With windows on 3 sides, this master bedroom is filled with natural light. Three secondary bedrooms, a full hall bathroom, and lots of extra closet space complete this level. Downstairs, you will find a partially finished basement consisting of a versatile recreation room that could be used for a playroom, workout area, and/or home office. The unfinished area provides ample space for storage. The resort-like backyard features mature landscaping and a fenced in-ground heated pool and spa with new tile (2019). Don't miss the beautiful blooming azaleas that surround the pool!
