Property Description
This Historic Bethlehem home c.1895 is available for the first time in over 35 years! A brick front terrace bordered by summer flowers welcomes entry to this charming property. Classic 19th century features of hardwood floors, crown moldings, chair rails and deep baseboards grace the interior rooms. A brick wood burning fireplace is a focal point in the living room. Formal dining room leads to an eat-in kitchen with ample cabinets, recessed lights and original built-in pantry. Enjoy the convenience of a first floor laundry room and half bath. An inspired Frank Chiles 2-story addition offers a sunroom with wood beams in a lofted ceiling and French door access to English gardens. The arched window, from Bethlehem's original Post Office on West 4th St, is in full view from the second floor bedroom addition. A second bedroom currently used as an office, a dressing room/nursery and full bath complete this level. Large third level attic space has hardwood floors, barn beams, built-in shelving and may be used as a play room, office or storage. Relax in the privacy of a back yard oasis with slate patio, sun and shade plantings and an established rose garden, all created over 15 years. No grass to cut! A short walk to Main Street's fine shops and restaurants, Bethlehem Public Library and an abundance of cultural activities offers an opportunity to become part of a vibrant urban community. Just a 60 mile commute to Phila and 90 miles to NYC!
