About This Home

As of September 2013

Built like a fortress! This double brick 2 1/2 story cannot be duplicated by any builder today, it simply would cost too much! Just a super solid home in a fantastic and quiet neighborhood, 1-2 blocks from the hospital, the beautiful borough park and our thriving downtown community! Hardwood floors, 1st floor powder room, full attic & basement, large front porch, huge 16x18 covered pavilion, and 1C detached garage with attached carport are just some of the features of this attractively priced gem in Palmerton.
