Property Description
Situated on 1.133 acres in the Northern Lehigh School District, this 4-bedroom, 2-full-bath home offers 1,536 square feet of living space, original architectural details, and a beautiful country setting.
Inside, you'll find hardwood floors, original woodwork, and classic pocket doors separating the living room and den. Previously used as a bedroom, the first-floor den offers wonderful flexibility as a potential fifth bedroom, home office, library, or additional living space. With a full bathroom featuring a walk-in shower conveniently located on the first floor, this arrangement provides options that aren't always found in older farmhouses! Wood flooring also lies beneath the carpeting in the second-floor hallway, offering an opportunity to reveal even more of the home's original character. A coal/wood stove adds to the living room's warm appeal, while the spacious eat-in kitchen and first-floor laundry room with abundant storage provide everyday convenience.
The second floor offers three bedrooms and another full bathroom, while the third floor features a fourth bedroom and tons of additional attic storage.
Step outside and you'll discover even more to love! A covered front porch, spacious covered patio, mature trees, and a picturesque creek create a wonderful setting for relaxing or entertaining. And then there's the barn/garage! This unique outbuilding once hosted blacksmithing classes, and the original firing area remains—a fascinating reminder of the property's history.
Additional features include a generator and a water heater approximately one year old.
Homes with this much character and such an interesting story don't come along every day. If you've been looking for an old farmhouse with room to make it your own, this one deserves a closer look!
