Property Description

Just steps from Muhlenberg College, this well-located Allentown home delivers the kind of convenience that’s hard to find—and even harder to beat. Situated just half a block from campus, you can actually see the college from the front porch, making this a standout opportunity in a highly desirable pocket of the city. Inside, you’ll find a practical and comfortable layout featuring 3 bedrooms and 1.5 baths, along with the added bonus of main floor laundry. A partially finished basement provides extra space for storage, a rec room, or future finishing options depending on your needs. Major systems and appliances have already been handled for you, including a gas heater with tankless water heater combo (2018), plus a lineup of newer appliances: dishwasher (2023), dryer (2020), washer (2025), and refrigerator (2026)—giving peace of mind and reducing upfront costs. Out back, enjoy a nice rear deck—perfect for relaxing or entertaining—along with a 1-car garage that adds convenience and off-street parking. Whether you're looking to live close to campus or tap into strong rental demand driven by the college, this property offers flexibility that fits a variety of buyers. Prime location, solid updates, and built-in potential—this is one you don’t want to overlook. Home is an estate. As-is sale.
