About This Home

As of January 2017

Inspired by the crisp, classic lines of New England homes, this house is on 3 acres with privileged vistas of the SVCC Weyhill Golf Course. This secluded property is perfect for entertaining at the end of a busy day, a rare combination of a park-like setting & an architecturally pleasing residence, conveniently positioned in the heart of Saucon Valley. The floor plan is suited to comfortable everyday living or entertaining. Custom details & special appointments are testimony to the owner/architect/builder’s thoughtful passive solar design. A Rumford fireplace, random width pine floors, large windows & custom kitchen, designed with hidden storage & a uniquely warm patina, are some of the features that make this home a place to settle in. The master bedroom suite is seemingly perched above the treetops. The on-grade lower level has multipurpose rooms including a recreation room or office. Minutes from Historic Bethlehem, major highways, championship golf courses & jogging trails.
