Under contract now and please note THIS HOME IS NOT FOR RENT. Excited to present this charming 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom brick ranch home in South Allentown, now on the market! Since 1995, the proud owners—Jerry, a dedicated Navy veteran and former Allentown firefighter of 25 years, and his family—have meticulously cared for this home, both inside and out. Custom-built, the home features a second, extra-wide front door, along with extra-wide interior doors as well, enhancing its accessibility.
