About This Home

As of August 2019

--No Showings before Sunday 6/16 at 10:00am-- Tucked away on a majestic hillside, the former site for missionary retreats is now the idyllic setting for Skyview. Resting on 6.94 acres with incredible long-distance views stretching to Philadelphia, this remarkable property is a restful, welcoming haven. Towering trees and sun filled clearings frame the attractive cedar shake residence. Architectural interest abounds with wood floors, high ceilings, and crown moldings. Subtle elegance blends with the rustic charm of a small cottage s origins offering a current floor plan with four bedrooms, four full baths and a finished lower level. The kitchen delights with two walk in pantries, a stone floor to ceiling fireplace, and access to a screened porch where songbirds visit at daybreak. Truly breathtaking, the master bedroom suite offers a front row seat to dozens of annual fireworks displays and changing seasonal vistas. Dotted with fruit trees and berry bushes, a walk of the grounds reveals raised beds for gardening, a sparkling and private swimming pool and charming workshop/studio cottage. Located in the desirable East Penn school district, this unforgettable sanctuary brings solitude and serenity yet everyday necessities in the Lehigh Valley are reachable in minutes.
