Set well back on two lush, tree-lined acres in Valencia, this beautifully updated three-bedroom, two-bathroom home delivers the kind of privacy that's getting harder to find, without asking you to give up modern convenience. It's the best of both worlds: quiet, secluded country living inside the Mars Area School District, with move-in-ready updates already done. Escape the noise, not the comforts. Behind the scenes, the big-ticket items have already been handled, so your privacy comes with genuine peace of mind: a durable new metal roof (2025), a new water heater (2024), and a refurbished rear deck (2025). A new front porch (2025) welcomes you home, while inside you'll find a bright, contemporary feel throughout. Downstairs, the newly finished basement adds a whole extra dimension of living space. It makes an ideal family room or game room for movie nights and gatherings, while a versatile bonus room works perfectly as a home office or fourth bedroom, or turn the whole floor into a private in-law suite. With its own full bathroom and direct access to the outdoors and driveway, this level offers the kind of flexibility today's buyers are after: room to work, host, or welcome friends and family, all with a measure of privacy and independence. Outside is where your private retreat truly comes to life. Sip your morning coffee on the spacious rear deck overlooking rolling hills, fields, and trees, gather friends and family under the covered patio, and take in the scenic, wooded views that wrap the property in seclusion. The full two acres are yours to garden, roam, and unwind on, while a dedicated storage shed keeps everything neatly out of sight. Peaceful. Private. Thoroughly modern. For buyers who crave room to breathe but still want everything working and ready on day one, this Valencia retreat is a rare find. Come experience the quiet before it's gone.
This 3-bedroom brick ranch home sits on 2 acres with an open concept, completely updated main floor. The kitchen door leads to a large back deck that is in need of repair. Lower level is plumbed for a second full bath and the open floor plan leads to a concrete patio through sliding glass doors overlooking the back yard. There is ample parking, new windows on first floor and 200 amp underground service. The well pump, pressure tank and hot water tank were all new in 2018.
