A tree-lined street in a thoroughly charming neighborhood is the setting for this historic craftsman bungalow in the deep west end of Allentown. Built circa 1921, the residence has wonderful curb appeal with a colorful array of mature plantings framing the deep front porch, an inviting space to slow down and enjoy life at a slower pace here at The Bungalow on Walnut.
Handsome oak floors with maple inlay, high ceilings, and leaded glass transomed windows accent almost 2900 square feet of well-kept living space. Rooms are bright and spacious and include a sunroom with walls of windows, living room with wood-burning fireplace, formal dining room, and updated eat-in kitchen with butler’s pantry. Also found on the first level is a luxe primary suite with dual walk-in closets and a private bath. A cozy central sitting area on the second floor leads to three sunny bedrooms and an updated hall bath. A fourth flexible room now offers a walk-in dressing room with built in organizing systems.
The sheltered patio is a lovely spot to enjoy a quiet evening before walking a short distance to the beautiful Union Terrace Amphitheater Park. A detached two car garage is a notable amenity. The location is a prime one with Cedar Beach Park, Lehigh Parkway creek side paths, Lehigh Valley Hospital, Muhlenberg College, and a thriving city center easily accessible.
