In its prime, it was one of the most awe-inspiring homes in the Lehigh Valley and it hosted many prominent events. The view from this home in the Winter months is of sparkling lights across the City of Allentown. In summer months the only view is towering trees and nearly no visibility of this home from E Rock Road. Although time has taken a toll on its surfaces, this monument of stone and glass certainly has the ability to once again shine in that its architectural appeal is timeless. .. Must be seen to appreciate. That being said, the Seller is only accepting cash or conventional offers with a minimum of 30% down. You will need to provide proof of funds in order to schedule an appointment to see this amazing opportunity. POA (if needed) for Seller is a licensed real estate professional.
