About This Home

As of November 2023

Classic and prominent Spring Valley center hall colonial in one of the neighborhood's most desirable locations. Perched upon a hill adjacent to the entrance of Spring Valley Park, 3601 Fordham Road exudes curb appeal, privacy and sophistication. The sweeping level front lawn and generous hardscape create an inviting entry to this stunningly designed home. Once inside, the discerning buyer will find a generous main level with 3 fireplaces spread across a traditional formal living and dining room, expanded family room with three directions of sun filled windows and vaulted ceilings, an adjacent gourmet kitchen featuring updated countertops, an eat in breakfast area and French door access to a secluded and private rear garden/entertaining space ideal for alfresco dining. An oversized study/1st floor bedroom with en-suite bath offer yet another entertaining room or flexibility for additional guest accommodations. The 2nd floor has three full bedrooms (one which is currently being used as a walk in closet) including an owners bedroom that has its own ensuite bath and spans the entire width of the home. Two additional and surprisingly large bedrooms and a shared bath in the dormer eaves of the house provide even more guest space. The lower level provides ample storage, laundry facilities and direct access to the attached two car garage. A truly stunning offering that embodies the best of Spring Valley.
