About this home
Welcome to 6517 Dresden Lane in the highly desirable Valley Estates community, ideally located between Crabtree Valley and North Hills. Nestled on a beautifully landscaped 0.40-acre homesite, this charming 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home with 1,972 square feet offers timeless charm, exceptional outdoor living, and an impressive list of thoughtful updates, including a recently replaced roof, Hardie® brand siding with factory applied finish, upstairs HVAC system and ductwork, refreshed exterior paint, rejuvenated hardwood flooring in the main living areas, and numerous additional improvements throughout. The heart of the home is the inviting kitchen, featuring red oak cabinetry, solid-surface countertops, a decorative tile backsplash, gas cooktop, pantry, stainless steel appliances including a new KitchenAid wall oven (2024) with air-fry functionality, new dishwasher (2024), under-cabinet LED lighting, recessed lighting, and a sunny breakfast area with a bay window overlooking the backyard.

Two additional bedrooms and a full bath, which also has a new toilet provide comfortable accommodations for family, guests, or a home office. A convenient laundry room completes the second level. The outdoor setting is equally impressive, featuring professionally landscaped grounds accented by mature Ginkgo, Japanese Maple, and Dogwood trees that create a private, park-like backdrop. A charming paver walkway adds character to the grounds, while updated exterior lighting beautifully showcases the home in the evenings.
