About This Home
As of October 2023Classic single home on one the most desired blocks in Merion Station! Famous for its annual block party the Saturday after Labor Day and having over 250 trick or treaters, with a strong sense of community and neighborly spirit, you will never want to live anywhere else! Many homes on the block have not changed owners in over 40 years but have the next generations living in them, so don't miss this rare opportunity to live on Valley View Road! The current owners lived here for almost 50 years and cared for the home well during their stewardship.
The first floor has a great flow, with an open living and dining room, both off the large sun room, all with gleaming original oak hardwood floors with decorative walnut border. The sun room sits overlooking Valley View Road, raised above street level for privacy and great light throughout the day. The sleek European styled kitchen is off the dining room, looking through to the sun room. Behind the kitchen is a mud room leading to the rear garden--the mud room is a great place to easily add a first floor powder room! There is a large walk in closet on the stair landing to the 2nd floor, which could be an alternate location for a first floor powder room. The landing also connects with the back stair from the kitchen.
The second floor is where the three main bedrooms are located. All are nicely sized corner bedrooms with large closets. The large hall bath has a spacious linen closet, original soaking bathtub and a large window overlooking the rear garden. A stairway from the hall leads to the large finished attic, which makes a perfect teen or boomerang offspring retreat, guest room, or separated home office space. This is also a great expansion opportunity for a gracious primary suite without expanding the house's footprint. The dry basement has the laundry, good storage space and an updated 1/4 bath.
Be sure to walk the winding brick pathway to the private and charmingly landscaped rear garden. A second garden walkway leads from the mud room doorway to the driveway and detached garage. Aside from being located on an amazing block, you will have a short walk to the Narberth train station and a similarly short walk to Merion Elementary, especially along Rockland to the school's rear drop off and pick up. Located just three houses outside the Borough of Narberth, you get all the amenities of living near Narberth "downtown", while enjoying lower taxes in Lower Merion, and of course, the highly desired Lower Merion School District, in the coveted Merion Elementary catchment, and living in the high school "choice" zone.
