A quarter century ago, a group of visionaries across the Pennsylvania cities of Easton, Bethlehem, and Allentown - and others - encouraged locals to rebrand the region as the Lehigh Valley. Today, the U.S. Census Bureau states that the Lehigh Valley consists of not just those cities, yet the Pennsylvania counties of Northampton, Lehigh, and Carbon plus New Jersey's Warren County. The Lehigh Valley is one of the top 20 fastest growing metropolitan areas in the U.S.
Look almost anywhere, and you'll see commercial and residential construction. Hospitals, shopping plazas, university buildings, apartment houses, and new homes are springing up despite the economic slowdown from the COVID-19 pandemic. Fortune 500 companies and major colleges have deep roots in the area.
With more people working from home as a result of the pandemic, larger homes with multiple amenities are desired more than ever. Our new listing, 1847 Nottingham Road in the Robin Hood development of Salisbury Township, is perfect for this trend. Check out our 3D Home Tour here: 3D Home Tour
This sprawling home in an established neighborhood with large lots by the Lehigh Parkway will bring you peace each day and evoke the fascination of your guests. You will love the 5 levels, 5 bedrooms (6 counting the loft), 5 car attached garage, and 3.5 bathrooms.
Cooking will be a joy in the open concept chef's kitchen with Plato Woodwork custom cabinets, Sub-Zero refrigerator, America Range commercial gas stove, custom concrete countertops, and abundant natural light.
The commanding master bedroom on the lower level is your perfect romantic getaway. It features a wood burning fireplace, floor to ceiling windows, and a door outside to your private fire pit with built-in benches for those late night intimate conversations. The master bathroom is an oasis of relaxation, replete with sauna, Jacuzzi, huge glass-enclosed shower, and door to the outside.
A junior master on the second level connects with a modern bathroom with a nicely sized tile shower. Stroll up the nearby spiral staircase to the loft with multiple skylights for daytime fun or perhaps gazing at the moon and stars after dark.
With all the bedrooms and the loft, you have options to set up home office(s), virtual learning classroom(s), or artistic spaces. Staying home more hours of the day was never more fun and inspiring for people of all ages.
A massive, dry, finished basement is the perfect family room or creative area. It features egress windows, soft carpet, and abundant natural light.
Spend hours poolside or strolling among your mature trees. Sit quietly outside under the shade of any of a number of trees whilst reading a gripping novel with a lemonade at arm's length.
Kids or guests will love the large, flat yard for running about, or throwing the football and kicking a soccer ball. Host large family reunions or office parties that will forever be remembered.
Keep your antique or sports cars safely nestled in the 5-car attached garage. It features an entrance into a mud room that leads to the dining room, plus a separate staircase straight to the finished basement. There is also abundant storage space throughout the home, including in the garage attic.
The home has been tenant-occupied and could use some cosmetic upgrades. You will enjoy the process of making this home, yours.
