About this home

Just minutes from Hellertown, I-78, shopping, and other amenities, this Narnia-like property offers a serene and aesthetic retreat for those who value sophistication and simple elegance. Set on a gentle slope with classic views of bucolic countryside, the deceptive Cape Cod style opens to a European-style foyer, with a great room to the left centering on a fireplace straight out of the Arts & Crafts movement of the last century. To the right is a small bedroom or office, and a chef's kitchen with premium appliances and custom decorative elements. Further on is a first-floor bedroom and bathroom, plus living room. Up the stairs is a treehouse-like master bedroom with long-distance views, and a perfectly appointed marble master bathroom. Meticulously maintained, the property also features a koi pond with soothing sounds of running water, and a heated in-ground pool for relaxation on lazy summer days. Gardeners will especially appreciate the greenhouse and all the specimen plantings.

Once up the private drive you will enter a property of beauty, serenity and privacy all your own. The flowing layout of this deceptive cape welcomes you from the first moment. The spacious foyer is well suited as a reading nook, the living room with french doors as the center of all entertainment and the greenhouse is a gardener's dream. Cook feasts for your guests in the chef's kitchen accented by herbs from your greenhouse, premium appliances and custom decor. The sun-filled master suite's comfort and spaciousness is enhanced by beauty (gorgeous views) and practicality- alike (great closet space!). The perfect blend of manicured property, native trees and lawn is your outdoors. Wander between the pine trees and rhodendron or lazily sip lemonade while floating in the pool. The finer details are now yours to luxuriate in. While private and serene this getaway is just minutes from downtown Hellertown and the conveniences of major routes. Owner is a PA licensed REALTOR.

Rural Agriculture District

The Rural Agricultural District provides a rural low-density living environment. The area is extensive and without development-related public facilities, such as water and sewer. The district is established to encourage agricultural and related activities, as well as to conserve unique natural features, such as flood prone and sloping areas, forests, and wildlife habitats and to help protect the watershed areas for the Springtown Water System and the Hellertown Water System water supplies. This district is established also to allow development while encouraging protection of valuable natural resources.
