This quiet end of row townhouse in Muhlenberg is close to everything and has been a rental since the owners purchased it in 1985. It's currently registered and up-to-date with Muhlenberg Township. It needs flooring, fresh paint and the bathroom needs work to bring it back to life. On the first floor you'll enter into the living room, beyond is the dining room, kitchen and full bath with shower stall. Out the back door is a 10' x 8' patio with roof. On the 2nd floor, there are 2 bedrooms and on the 3rd floor is currently a walk-up attic that could be turned into a bedroom if you add electric heaters. The basement is unfinished, there's a washer and dryer staying and there is room for a tool bench. The property is a rectangle that goes from Bennett Street to Spring Valley Road. According to Muhlenberg Township Zoning, a parking area could be added if it is 10' x 20' blacktop or cement parking area maintaining 3' on each side to the neighboring property lines.
