About this House

Welcome to this well loved 4-bedroom, 2-full-bath Cape Cod Hellertown. Recent updates include a new roof and updated plumbing, offering added peace of mind for years to come. Inside, hardwood floors run throughout the first floor, and the kitchen offers stainless steel appliances and plenty of cabinetry for everyday storage and prep space. Just off the kitchen, a dining sunroom provides a comfortable spot for family meals with lots of natural light. Efficient gas heat helps keep things comfortable and costs manageable, and the basement is dry and spacious, offering good options for storage, laundry space or extra living space down the road.
Outside, the beautiful fenced yard is a nice space for kids, pets, or gardening, with an extra large deck for everyday relaxing, a bonus gazebo for shade, and a shed for extra storage. The home sits within the Saucon Valley School District and offers easy access to Rt 78 for commuters. Hellertown itself has a lot to offer close to home — a walkable downtown with local restaurants, a weekly farmers market, community pool, library, and several nice parks. The rail trail is also nearby for walking, running, or biking. A comfortable home in a well-located community — worth a look. Schedule your showing today.

  • Rick S.
    "Excellent family community, with about 75 upscale homes on large lots (1-10+ acres), many of them tree-lined and rolling topography. Nearby public transportation to NYC and Philly and proximity to NJ is why over half of owners in Saddle Ridge commute to work outside of the Lehigh Valley. "
