About This Home

Twin Pond Villa Tucked away on over five private acres in Lower Saucon Township, this remarkable property offers a rare combination of natural beauty, historic character, and modern comfort. The home balances mid-century charm with flexible spaces for today’s living, surrounded by water, mature trees, and timeless tranquility. The unique setting features two spring-fed ponds connected by a charming bridge. Adding to the storybook feel is a historic ice house, a nod to the region’s agrarian past and a distinctive historic building type that few properties can claim. Inside, the residence offers more than 3,200 square feet over three finished floors, with a layout that allows for both privacy and connection. The flexible upper level allows for bedrooms, offices, or creative studios, making it ideal for a variety of lifestyles. A fully finished walkout lower level with second kitchen offers the potential for updates. With ample space for gardening, recreation, and outdoor entertaining, the property has two separate parcels. For those with an eye for design, this is a rare chance to craft a dream home on an extraordinary piece of land, with room for gardens, recreation, and outdoor entertaining. A true sanctuary, the property blends privacy and potential in a premier location, just minutes from town conveniences.
