Even Philadelphia Magazine is impressed by this home's new look! Google "216 valley rd, philly mag" to read the write up. Are you looking for 1) completely renovated and move in ready, 2) central air, 3) a walk to the train address, 4) second floor laundry and 5) an open floor on the Main Line? This home has been completely renovated and is a very short walk to the Merion Train Station, Merion Elementary School, the Merion Botanical Garden and is just under 1 mile to the town of Narberth. Upon pulling into the newly topped driveway you will notice a brand new roof, new windows, new garage door, new gutters and downspouts and a new fence. Inside the newness continues as the entire interior was rehabbed, an open floor plan created, mudroom and breakfast area added, and master suite created. The rehab includes the following updates: plumbing, electrical, recessed lighting, 200 amp service, hard-wired smoke detectors, coaxial cable wired for a flat screen TV above the mantel and in the master bedroom, two separate HVAC systems with Smart thermostats, gas heat and cooking, new Shaker style kitchen cabinetry with Quartz countertops, new stainless steel Kitchen Aid appliances, all new bathrooms and powder room, refinished hardwood floors and new carpet. The master bedroom is an entire half of the second floor and the master closet is large enough to keep all your clothes and ditch your dressers allowing space for a sitting area in the bedroom. There are two additional bedrooms and a hall bath as well as second floor laundry to complete the second floor. The third floor is two more bedrooms, a bathroom and an additional nook for a homework area or home office. This home provides the experience of moving into like-new construction but the comforts of moving into an existing home in an established neighborhood. All of this in top-ranked Lower Merion School District. Seller is a licensed PA Realtor.
