****HIGHEST & BEST DUE BY WEDNESDAY 8/28/24 EOD****Always wanted to live in the suburbs but still be close enough to where things are happening? Look no further. This 3 bedroom brick ranch is located on the quiet corner of Hess and Hoffert Alley, yet just minutes from Route 78, Lehigh University and the Wind Creek Casino. The house has hardwood floors and is waiting for your personal touch. Create that fun space in the full basement you always wanted, and walk right out onto the backyard patio where you can spend the evening with friends watching the fireflies in the waning light of the summer sun. Want some excitement? It’s a hop, skip and a jump into the truly dynamic and award winning city of Bethlehem, where you can enjoy everything the city has to offer including night life, restaurants, shopping and events like Oktoberfest, PEEPSFEST®, Christkindlmarkt Bethlehem (twice recognized as one of the best holiday markets in the U.S. by Travel + Leisure) and Musikfest, with 10-straight days of one of the nation’s largest music festivals. Don’t miss your chance to see this one.
