About This Home

As of November 2024

If you're looking for a solid, custom built home with charm, privacy and almost two acres of land, then look no more. Down a private drive, tucked away beyond an extended driveway is this secluded oasis in the woods. There is ample parking and an over-sized garage/workshop with home office, art studio or homeschool room above great for the car enthusiast, carpenter or even someone working from home. Some of the newer features include new roofs and gutters on the garage and home in 2020, septic cleaned out 10/24, new custom kitchen and appliances 2024, new water heaters in garage and home in 2021 and 2023, chimney cleanout and lined with new cap in 2022, refinished hardwood floors in 2024 in main living areas, new chicken coop in 2023, new carpet in basement 2022 and all heating systems were cleaned and serviced 11/23. If you've been searching for something that's away from the hustle and bustle of the Lehigh Valley but still only a five minute drive to town, then this is the home for you.
