Description
Surrounded by lush lawn and tall trees, this CLASSIC SAUCON VALLEY colonial sits back from the road in a coveted old Saucon neighborhood. Consisting of TWO LOTS totaling almost 3.8 acres, this magic setting beckons one’s ideas for renovations and additions or simply combining the second parcel to create an expansive estate. The second lot would be equally well-suited to be retained for future investment or developed as a second residence, or family compound.
Enter the main house through a front foyer with flagstone floor and painted WAINSCOTTING, flanked by formal living and dining rooms. Large windows and crown moldings are elegant touches, and the living room includes floor-to-ceiling built-ins as well as a wood-burning FIREPLACE. The kitchen offers excellent storage and prep space, with a cozy breakfast area overlooking the private backyard. Adjacent is a family room, also with FIREPLACE and built in cabinets, opening to a SCREENED-IN PORCH and BLUESTONE PATIO, shaded by magnificent old trees. The primary suite is spacious and has an ensuite bath, while three additional bedrooms and a hall bath complete the second floor. There is a finished lower level with a rec room and workshop and an oversized, 2-car garage.
Walk and ride bikes on the QUIET ROADS in this neighborhood, originally developed from an apple orchard by Bethlehem Steel for their executives. Ideally located just minutes from the Saucon Valley Country Club, with easy access to the Promenade Shops, this property will steal your heart.
