This bright, inviting ranch style home provides easy access to I-78 and all of the amenities downtown has to offer, yet it is only a few blocks away from the Lehigh Parkway, one of Allentown's most expansive and beautiful park systems. The hardwood floors have been brought back to life and add to the appeal of this lovely home. Closet space will be found in both bedrooms and through out the house, in addition to storage areas in the attic and basement. The next owner of this home will also enjoy a number of possibilities with the partially finished basement area that is equipped with a second full bathroom.
