## Description

### Agent Description
Flexible living space defines this distinctive 3-story town house in the heart of Historic Allentown. Late Victorian (1874) houses like this one are graced by high ceilings, tall windows, and heart-of-pine floors. And this home's layout adapts easily to a variety of modern uses and styles. The first floor features two front rooms, either of which could be a music room, parlor, office or dining room. The second has an ornamental fireplace. Beyond that, a tidy kitchen-granite, stainless-has double ovens and an extra sink for beverages. Another room, adjacent to the second parlor and the kitchen, is warmed by exposed brick, terra cotta floor, and a sky light. The space has been used for casual meals, games, and lounging-sometimes all at once. A Bakers Alley opens in one corner and the garden terrace is out of the back door. A handy powder room completes the first floor. Outside is space for a table and chairs and, beyond that, a verdant shade garden (hosta, fiddle-head fern, Lenten rose) that leads to the garage - a welcome feature for living downtown. The second floor offers two spacious bedrooms separated by an open lounge or sitting area. The well-lighted full bath blends modern updates with historic character. Off the rear bedroom, the second-floor laundry area adds practicality to a large closet. Beyond that, an enclosed porch overlooks the backyard. Its space is great for crafts, yoga, or desk work. The bright, spacious third floor has a sky light plus dormer windows. It can be a guest loft, studio, home office and retreat for thinking things over. The property comes with a clear Certificate of Occupancy from the City of Allentown. A pre-listing inspection is already completed. Inviting, peaceful, accommodating and flexible, this address-like its Historic Allentown neighborhood-holds the gracious proportions of late Victorian domestic architecture. Here is a chance to own a piece of Allentown history and enjoy the variety and pedestrian ease of life in town.
