Welcome to College Heights, where quiet tree-lined streets and classic architecture create one of Allentown’s most desirable settings. Imagine pulling up each day to this timeless stone colonial, set on a GENEROUS CORNER DOUBLE LOT, and feeling immediately at home. Morning sunlight pours through the windows as you enjoy coffee in the kitchen’s breakfast nook, while evenings are spent unwinding by the fireplace or stepping out to the private flagstone patio surrounded by mature landscaping. Costco and Wegman runs are a breeze, stock up for holiday feasts in the dining room or summer cookouts on the deck and snacks for those quiet afternoons with a book on the upstairs window seat. The rooftop patio off the second floor offers a unique escape, while the finished lower level is already outfitted with a family room, private office, and laundry with its own outside entrance. Beyond your door, life in College Heights means walkable access to parks, local schools, cafés, farmer's market, The Great Allentown Fair, where big name acts meet the charm of a hometown tradition and the charm of the West End vibrant Theatre District. It’s a neighborhood where history meets convenience, and where every season feels just a little more beautiful under the canopy of mature trees. Located close to the Rose Garden, Muhlenberg, and major thoroughfares. Don't miss this rare opportunity in Allentown's West End! This is more than just a house, it’s a lifestyle waiting to be lived.
