About this home
Welcome to effortless, single-story living in the heart of the desirable Saucon Valley School District! Set on a flat 0.81-acre lot directly across from the Reading Drive Trailhead on the Saucon Rail Trail (a scenic walking and biking path), this home pairs peaceful outdoor access with everyday convenience. This meticulously maintained brick ranch offers an impressive 2,637 total finished square feet of versatile living space. From the moment you arrive, the tree-lined grounds and classic brick facade set a welcoming tone. Inside, beautiful hardwood floors guide you through an inviting main level (hardwood also under the bedroom carpet), featuring an updated kitchen equipped with rich countertops, a center island, and seamless flow into the dining and living areas. The spacious 23x24 family room acts as the heart of the home, bathed in natural light from a bright skylight and warmed by a cozy pellet stove. Completely updated in 2026 with new flooring, this expansive space features elegant French doors that lead directly out to the back yard.
NEED A 3RD BEDROOM? THE FOOTWORK IS ALREADY DONE! The rear patio was poured with structural frost footings, offering a code-compliant foundation to easily add a 3rd bedroom, primary suite, or sunroom without costly site work.
Beyond its expansion potential, this backyard serves as an ideal outdoor space for summer entertaining. The patio features a built-in OUTDOOR KITCHEN island complete with a primary gas grill, dedicated flat-top cooktop/griddle, prep counters, and integrated storage, all overlooking your private, sprawling lawn. The expansive yard provides plenty of space for outdoor recreation, gardening, or relaxing in privacy, complete with two large storage sheds to keep everything organized.
When it’s time to move the entertaining indoors, head downstairs to the massive lower level! Offering a huge 46x19 recreation room complete with a WET BAR and full bathroom, this flexible space provides plenty of possibilities for a home theater, gym, game room, or additional living space.
Unmatched peace of mind with extensive high-ticket upgrades: Natural gas heating conversion, new ductwork, and a new gas tankless on-demand water heater (all 2026), re-insulated attic with 16" insulation (2025), restuccoed exterior walls (2025), basement finish (2022), Central A/C (2019), and a 40-year architectural shingle roof! Don't miss this turn-key Saucon Valley gem offering low taxes ($4,828/yr), modern updates, and built-in future potential....
