About This Home

As of December 2020

LOCATION AND SERENITY in this 3 bedroom 1.5 bathroom special home. Located in desirable Saucon Valley school district, this home feels like a comfortable treehouse with plenty of space indoors and outdoors. With a very private wooded setting perched atop South Mountain, you are minutes from Center Valley's premier restaurants and shopping at The Promenade to one side and Bethlehem's vibrant downtown and South Bethlehem eateries to the other side. There aren't many homes like this in the Lehigh Valley, backing up to Mountain Drive with acres of wooded privacy where your ownership is over an acre of land! Cozy up in front of the wood-burning stove and know your home is the perfect hideaway and never want to leave. The upstairs has a loft that overlooks the living area as master or office with easy access to backyard wooded area. New flooring/carpet throughout, new vanities, new front windows and fresh interior/exterior paint. You don't want to miss seeing this one! It's truly special.
