Don’t miss your chance to own a piece of local Tamaqua Area history! Showings to commence Saturday July 12th during open house 10-1. This beautifully maintained circa 1834 farmhouse sits on a level 1.4-acre corner lot in the desirable Tamaqua Area School District adorned with mature trees, outdoor FP, patio, above ground pool & deck. Built by Benjamin Keller—one of Hometown’s earliest settlers—this historic home is filled with character and charm. Documented in "The Kellers, Hometown’s Earliest Settlers" by descendant Louise Frederickson Fox, this rare gem blends heritage with comfort. The 4-bed, 1.5-bath home features a spacious living room with original stone wood-burning fireplace, a functional kitchen, dining room, and a bright three-season room with balcony above. Upstairs offers 4 generous bedrooms and a full bath. Outdoor highlights include an above-ground pool with 360 sq ft deck, a 1,036 sq ft patio, outdoor fireplace, landscaped grounds, and a detached oversized 2-car garage with former summer kitchen-cook stove and sink to remain. Mature trees add beauty and privacy. Floor plans, survey, and historical info will be available during **double open house tours July 12 & 13**. Tamaqua graduates may qualify for 2 years of free college via the Morgan Foundation. Seller may include a 1-Year Cinch Home Warranty with acceptable offer. Drive-bys welcome—please do not enter property without appointment or during open house.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
