About This Home

As of May 2020

Abundant curb appeal, stylish amenities, and an elegant yet functional interior set this attractive home apart from the ordinary. In the lovely community of Saddle Ridge, the house is the perfect complement to its surroundings. A rocking chair front porch beckons you to sit and enjoy the views and the quiet cul-de-sac location. This nearly-new, 2013 home has all the upgrades you would expect. There is an impressive two-story foyer at entrance. Attention to detail is commonplace throughout, with gleaming hardwood floors, a first floor office with full bath, and formal living and dining rooms with lovely moldings and high ceilings. The family room is the center of the home with a two-sided stone fireplace and opening to the beautiful, white kitchen with stainless appliances, granite countertops and herringbone tile backsplash. Adjacent, there is a fabulous sunroom with vaulted ceiling, skylights and walls of windows to the custom backyard oasis. The second floor has three spacious bedrooms and a master suite with sitting room, four walk-in closets, and sumptuous bath with river rock shower, rainfall shower head, and soothing soaking tub. The lower level, with egress window and high ceiling, offers abundant storage and future spaces to finish. Finally, a whole house generator will bring peace of mind in all seasons. Whether entertaining or relaxing, the serene outdoor living space is an architecturally-designed extension of the home, with custom travertine patio, heat-treated decking, boulders, and stunning built in gas grilling center with granite countertop. Just minutes from I-78, Route 309 and the Promenade Shops, Velvet Trail is in one of the Lehigh Valley's premier locations. Let the days settle in around you in a serene and private setting, on a cul-de-sac, where endless views of the Lehigh Valley include spectacular sunsets.
