About This Home

As of March 2021

Welcome home to this charming east side single in historic Jim Thorpe. The sunporch greats you as you walk in! Enjoy your morning beverage on the porch. As you enter the original staircase invites you in along with the original refinished floors throughout the home. The living room is charming and calls you to sit a while. The large kitchen w/ample cupboards and counter plus room for a nice sized table will be a focal point of this home. There is a flex room - multi use on this level, currently used as an entertainment/game room but could be a formal dining room, office, etc. The laundry/half bath/mudroom provides additional storage space and has a lovely original built-in cupboard. On the second level you'll find 3 sizable bedrooms and a full bath. There is attic and basement storage (new gas furnace under a year old!) Most of the windows have been replaced (not all!) & roof is approx. 5 years old too! The rear deck has great mountain view, level yard & pos. off-st parking. Convenient location - salons, post office, bank, schools, restaurants, stores close by along with the historic downtown and all the wonderful amenities of the area such as the beautiful Lehigh Gorge State Park and Mauch Chunk Lake. Easy commute via 209, 903, 248 and PA 476. A lovely mix of modern and old world charm.
