About This Home

As of February 2021

Don't wait to come see this traditional beauty, located within walking distance to the Emmaus Triangle, elementary schools & parks! If you love classic woodwork, leaded glass windows, cast iron radiators & the charm of a big front porch you must consider this home. Yes, there is a lot of wallpaper & some other cosmetic work to be done - but this property has been well maintained & can be made into a showcase! The roof, heating system & brick work were all updated within the last 2-7 years. Electrical was done in 2001. The home is currently 3 bedrooms with a "flex" space that has been recently used as an office space & as a second kitchen prior to that. Since the space is plumbed, it has potential as a 2nd floor laundry room or perhaps an en-suite bathroom. Bring your imagination & creativity! There will be (2) open houses on Sun. Jan. 31st. To ensure the health & safety of all visitors, pre-registration is required.
