Welcome to 154 Poplar Road! Located on a quiet cul-de-sac in the much-desired Newtown Woods area of Newtown Square and perched majestically atop a beautifully maintained front lawn, surrounded by mature trees, shrubs, and gardens, it will be love at first sight!

Located on a quiet cul-de-sac in the much-desired Newtown Woods area of Newtown Square and perched majestically atop a beautifully maintained front lawn, surrounded by mature trees, shrubs, and gardens, it will be love at first sight! Walking through the front door and into the formal foyer, you will immediately be struck by the bright, open feel of the home. The living room, with an expansive bay window, is just waiting for your guests to arrive. Next notice the large, lovely dining room, which is perfectly designed for entertaining. The kitchen is light and airy with a bonus island for extra counter space. The openness of the connected breakfast area leading to a warm cozy family room makes this house stand out. Notice the words painted on the beam to show the love that has been in this home. With a working propane fireplace, built in bookshelves, and French doors to the deck, this will be the room you will settle in at the end of the day. Completing the first floor are the mudroom/laundry room, which are perfectly situated off of the kitchen, leading to the 2-car attached garage. Upstairs, the master bedroom is your first stop. Bright and warm, this room offers a huge walk-in closet with a laundry chute down to the laundry room! What a bonus! The large full bath completes your master suite. Down the hall you will find 3 other full-sized bedrooms, and an extra-large hall bath - all generously flooded with light. The basement is dry and clean with a French drain, bar, workbench, and a "cold cellar" for storage. The high ceilings and large footprint are just begging to be turned into something spectacular! Step outside to grounds that have been lovingly and meticulously maintained for many years, with plenty of grassy areas for play and entertaining, and a stream to dip your toes in. You will notice right away the enormous and extensive hardscaping of the retaining walls with three different levels, each boasting its own special charm. Take the stairs up to the top and you will see the giant garden, with running water hook-up, just waiting for you to do your planting. With views of the valley during the day, and the stars at night, it really makes this home unique. The long driveway allows for plenty of parking and leads to the 2-car attached garage. The owners built the home, so it was done with care and quality. As an added personal touch, reinforced beams under the family room and 4th bedroom ( used as an office presently) were installed to handle the extra weight of a piano and many files. The home, despite being tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac, is conveniently close to Whole Foods, fabulous restaurants, and wonderful shops on Route 252 and Route 3.
