About This Home

As of May 2016

Prominently set at the entrance to Saddle Ridge, this stone, stucco and brick home has a whimsical European character, rich in the exterior details one would find amidst vineyards in the Tuscan Hills. Custom designed, the home is sited perfectly in the center of its almost 2-acre lot. A new deck and patio with fire pit is the perfect place to relax and let the evenings settle in around you. There is an open floor plan on the first floor, architecturally-designed for ease of entertainment and an exceptional family lifestyle, with hardwood floors and custom appointments. At entrance, the front-to-back foyer opens to a great room with walls of glass, amazing views, light and two-story ceilings. A gourmet kitchen and breakfast room adjoins the great room with floor?to-ceiling stone fireplace and views of adjacent open space. Whether entertaining or enjoying the superior layout, you will appreciate the first floor bedroom and bath, the formal dining room and the living room with an adjacent sunroom? perfect for a first floor office or just a room from which to enjoy every season. On the second floor, the master bedroom delights the senses with a fireplace, an extraordinary walk-through closet and a bath with seamless shower, whirlpool tub and dual vanities. Three additional bedrooms, two baths and a laundry complete the second floor. A treat for the senses, with a generator to provide for worry-free living, this is a home for every lifestyle, convenient to all that Saucon Valley has to offer and close to every major route to Philadelphia, New York and the Lehigh Valley.
