Description

Before you enter this home, be sure to take a moment to enjoy the great views of the surrounding countryside from the front porch here. The living room is quite roomy and features an accent wall with a faux brick finish, and the adjoining dining room is plenty large enough for formal dining. The kitchen is updated and boasts abundant oak cabinetry, tile backsplash, double stainless steel sinks, two-year old stainless steel dishwasher and stove/oven, and the fridge remains with the home. From the kitchen, step to the covered patio to the side/rear of the home to enjoy outdoor dining or just to relax on inclement weather days. The entire first floor has newer laminate flooring, and there is natural stained woodwork throughout this level. On the second floor, you'll find three bedrooms (one currently in use as an office/hobby room) and the full bath with a new tile backsplash and some new trim work. The third floor is currently in use as a fourth bedroom, has hardwood flooring, and is heated by an electric fireplace. The roof was replaced in 2006 and the windows were replaced 12 years ago. The washer and dryer (currently in the dining room but could be relocated to the basement) remain with the home for the convenience of the buyer. The basement is unfinished but offers ample storage space and is walk-out to the front of the home. Jim Thorpe is a charming town with so much to offer, including unique shops, an abundance of eateries, museums and a variety of live entertainment at the Mauch Chunk Opera House. You can tour local vineyards and enjoy some wine-tasting, or take a ride on the Lehigh Gorge Scenic Railway. The area offers a wide variety of outdoor recreational opportunities including biking and hiking, whitewater rafting, camping, and boating.
