For the New York commuters there is the daily Hellertown bus into Manhattan which is less than a 15 minute drive. Also a very convenient 10 minute drive to the Lehigh Valley Airport. New heat pump was installed in 2019. New shingled roof in 2012 along with siding and sliding glass door off of the dining room. Over-sized 2 car garage has newer door opener in 2016. A second 220 Volt single-phase power service is wired in garage for possibly a work-shop or for other various uses. There are also convenient outdoor receptacles under the deck, and an In-ground electric fence on property, but has not been used in a few years. Plenty of storage, and home also has possibilities of easily converting the lower level into an in-law suite or au pair suite if this is a needed change. Also the lower level half-bath can easily be converted to a full bath by combining with the storage room. Laundry room also on lower level has the potential to be a kitchenette and still have your laundry room. If main floor laundry is the need the main floor bath can easily accommodate a stacked washer and dryer. The backyard is a great one. It backs up to trees and open to parkland to access for use for many outdoor activities. Present owner has had many bonfires, enjoyed sledding, family sports, etc. This land is not owned by this property owner or adjoining property owners but has historically been voluntarily mowed by adjoining residents who border for its communal use. Come take a visit to this property.
