PENN VALLEY, PA19072

Have you been waiting for a Mid-Century Modern residence to make your own? This rarely offered Penn Valley home has only had 2 owners and is waiting for its next steward. Situated on a highly desirable cul-de-sac, an acre of green, and private grounds with all utility lines buried underground. This 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home delivers approximately 4,300 sq ft of expansive living space balancing classic modern design with modern comfort also featuring indoor/outdoor living with an in-ground pool. Additionally, more unfinished square footage for storage or other uses. Move-in ready yet primed for taking this space to the next level. Finishes include: Abundant sunlight from many windows, large vestibule for greeting guests, elegant slate floors in the vestibule & the dining room,  ¾ inch oak  hardwood floors throughout (some under the carpeting) , and custom built-ins setting a sophisticated tone, vaulted or high ceilings & a floor plan integrating indoor and outdoor living and archetypal bifurcated floor plan of the era with a switch back stair design for easier living. Enter the bright, center hall vestibule flanked with a Sitting/TV room to the right and a bright, large Living Room to the left and a large double-wide coat closet (think mud room behind closed doors). The SITTING ROOM is bright with a 10-foot ceiling and features an impressive wood-burning fireplace with stone from floor to ceiling. Custom cabinetry is ideal for displaying art, books and a space for a large television. The LIVING ROOM offers a wide bay window flooding the space with light, large enough to fit a grand piano and entertaining numerous guests. Proceeding through sleek double pocket doors to the expansive DINING ROOM including custom wood cabinetry, slate floors and ample space for a 10–12-person dining room table. Pass through another set of pocket doors to the eat-in KITCHEN, a large sundrenched space (2 large skylights) with modern white cabinetry, granite counters, some newer stainless-steel appliances, tiled backsplash, engineered wood floors, ample room for multiple cooks and a new glass sliding door to the patio; this is the hub of the home. Behind another pocket door is a large pantry and the laundry room with its own exterior access, perfect for managing the chaos of summertime fun in the pool! The Primary Suite & Private Bath & two large bedrooms sharing a full bath. Walking up the stairs, the first bedroom is the PRIMARY SUITE, large, measuring at 20’ x 26 feet. Four windows fill the space with light with two sets of closets (A walk-in and a double closet). The PRIMARY BATH features separate double vanities with ample storage, Kohler jacuzzi tub, walk in shower and private water closet. ADDITIONAL BEDROOMS are bright with large closets and a shared 3-piece HALL BATH with double vanity. THIRD FLOOR is dedicated to the 4th BEDROOM nearly equal in size to the primary bedroom. Its distinctive features are the vaulted ceiling, private bath and walk-in closet. Depending on your needs, this space is versatile, a shared child’s bedroom, guest suite, Studio, workout room, hobby room, all up to you. The lower level is a true showpiece — a private guest bedroom or home office, half bath, and a full bath with direct pool access create a self-contained entertaining haven. All anchored by an original wood ribbed wall and a vintage1967 Revere Ware copper fireplace, a rare collector's piece that is as visually striking as it is historically unique, finished off by an original curved bar right out of an episode of Mad Men.
