About This Home

As of October 2024

Beautiful log home in a fabulous Parkland Schools/North Whitehall Township location! This home will give you the feel of an old time log cabin-but with the room sizes and amenities of the modern home that it is. The home features really nice sized rooms on the first floor, the living room and family room being the largest, with a fireplace in the living room and family room with a wood stove. The old time wood floors add to the coziness of the layout! The kitchen features a ton of counter space, with ample cabinets, modern appliances and a dishwasher. There's also an office on the first floor for those of you who work from home. Upstairs, you'll find a master bedroom with vaulted wood ceilings, a master bath with claw foot tub and second floor laundry! There's also another full bath upstairs and two other bedrooms with lots of space. There's oil hot water baseboard heat to keep you warm all winter long along with central air for hot summer days! Outside there's a wrap around porch where you can sit and enjoy nature, and the huge barn/garage adjacent to the house allows plenty of space for the handyperson, car enthusiast or just plain old parking!The acre+ propery is perfect, feels much larger than it is, and allows you to enjoy nature and the outdoors for all they're worth-while being not too far from all of the Lehigh Valley's abundant amenities!
