Property Description
Entrance to Valley Rise begins with a long drive, leading to a classic property, reminiscent of the traditional refinement and old world charm of an English Manor Home. Sequestered amidst 5.4 acres of tall trees, there is something disarmingly beautiful about this gracious stone home. In surroundings that only time can provide, Valley Rise is defined by its understated elegance. One of only a handful of Saucon Valley's legacy properties, the house and grounds have been proudly cared for and updated to accommodate today's lifestyle. The scale and scope of the first floor is amazing, where each room is richly laden with exemplary woodwork. The entry foyer features a beautiful staircase, while a back stairway conveniently leads from the kitchen to a second floor and four bedrooms. Throughout the first floor, the rooms are bathed in light through oversized windows, all opening to an array of terraces with access to the pool and private acreage. Of course, fine materials and craftsmanship are to be expected in a home of this quality. The living and dining rooms boast generous proportions, each with a fireplace and built-ins, overlooking the terraces and wildlife beyond. Adjacent, a cook's kitchen has every accoutrement with equally amazing views and is open to the glass-walled sunroom with skylights. Completing the first floor is a spacious family room with tray ceiling and fireplace, a garden room overlooking the koi pond, powder room, full bath and a laundry. On the second floor, the master bedroom suite has large walk-in closets and a sumptuous master bath. Three additional bedrooms and two baths complete this floor. The lower level has additional work and play spaces. But the piece-de-resistance is a four car carriage house with au pair, or guest quarters, above, complete with a kitchen, living room, bath and bedroom. Finally, a 20 KW generator will give you peace of mind. Surpassing and exceeding expectations, Valley Rise takes every advantage of its incredible environs. The acreage provides perfect privacy, a garden-party lawn and timeless landscaping for you to enjoy every moment outdoors. The pool is surrounded by stone walls and terraces. Relax at day's end, at the pool or on the numerous terraces, relishing the serenity and enjoying the convenience of this very special location. Valley Rise presents a rare opportunity to invest in an extraordinary Saucon Valley estate. This utterly romantic home may be the best property you will ever see, effortlessly striking a remarkable balance between spaciousness and warm intimacy. Subject to final subdivision approval.
