This three Bedroom historic farmhouse is located in desirable Southern Lehigh School District and has a country feel, yet is close to major routes, schools, and shopping. The property has softwood flooring in the dining room and living rooms, one bath, older kitchen, garage, and nice size yard. A new heating system was just installed and plumbing repairs completed. Although some repairs were made in the home, it is in need of cosmetic updating and renovating to Buyer's liking.

Suburban Residential Zone
The purpose of this Zone is to accommodate medium density residential uses in areas with sufficient infrastructure to support such densities. Selected locations provide for the accommodation of future developments in accordance with the Township’s Comprehensive Plan and acknowledge the location of existing land uses with these suburban characteristics.; This Zone seeks to permanently preserve open spaces characterized by woodlands, steep slopes and stream valleys. In addition this Zone will promote the preservation and enhancement of historical and cultural resources that contribute to the character and heritage of the community. Conservation design developments are encouraged to offer the greatest density and design flexibility so that proposed developments can partner in the protection of sensitive and/or valuable natural and cultural features of the site. Conventional developments that do not engage the conservation design process will be subject to density penalty.
