Overlooking TWO serene fishing ponds, this home demands attention day or night with its impressive architecture and massive windows. Oversized concrete porch takes you to the original front door, with chrome hardware, cast iron accented, side light window; surrounded by gorgeous perennial hosta varieties, lily of the valley, and evergreen anchor plants. As you enter, appreciate the pristine slate foyer floor, and convenient guest coat closet. The great room will quickly take your attention with its massive, gleaming, wall to wall East facing windows. Drenched in natural light, this is the heart of 1709 Valley Parkway West.

Original Bedford Stone and birch planter box with recessed lighting is a throw back, and the perfect spot for your succulents to soak up the sun! Master bedroom offers corner windows, large closet with full size doors, and built in organizers; overlooking the North gardens. Bedroom two supports a queen bed comfortably, offers another large closet with built in features, and large corner windows overlooking lush backyard. Bedrooms three & four offer rare original finishes like cork flooring, walnut panel wall coverings with built in bookcases/storage.
