Bethlehem Township offers land, leisure and local perks
Convenience meets family-fun in the quintessential, suburban community of Bethlehem Township, Pennsylvania. Located less than 5 miles northeast from the city of Bethlehem, residents here enjoy the perks of easy grocery store runs, a day on the golf course at Green Pond Country Club or an outing at the Bethlehem Skateaway roller-skating rink. “The vibe is very community focused. It’s got a more single-family, residential feel than the city of Bethlehem,” says Rebecca L. Francis, an associate broker with BHHS Fox & Roach Realtors, who's a longtime area resident. “The homes are more spread out. You’re going to get a little more land.”
Single-family homes and townhouses from the late 1980s to today
Those looking to move here will find a mix of single-family homes and townhouses built primarily built from the late 1980s to present day. Colonial Revivals are the predominant style and properties typically rest along sidewalk-lined streets with sizeable, manicured lots of a quarter-acre. Median home prices are in the mid-$400,000s. A three-bedroom townhouse could be found in the low-$400,000s or a four-bedroom, contemporary home with a two-car garage may cost $650,000. “Homes sell pretty quickly,” Francis says. “They are reasonably priced compared to the overall area. Our average days-on-market is 21 days.”
Zoning for Bethlehem Area School District
Public school students may attend Miller Heights Elementary, East Hills Middle and Freedom High. The schools earn Niche grades of B-plus, C-plus and B, respectively. Home of the Patriots, the high school offers a variety of sports programs including ice hockey, golf and rifle. Northampton Community College, which offers associate and undergraduate degrees through its partnership with East Stroudsburg University and Bloomsburg University, is also located in the area.
Community parks feature trails and athletic facilities
Outdoor fun awaits at Louise Moore County Park, on Country Club Drive, where locals can play a game of tennis or jog along the rubber trails made from recycled tires. Bethlehem Township Municipal Park, on Farmersville Road, offers a traditional playground, basketball and volleyball courts. Other popular pastimes include visiting Bethlehem Skateaway, on Easton Avenue, to dance on wheels like it’s 1970 or play a round of golf at the public Green Pond Country Club’s 18-hole course, on Farmersville Road.
Residents shop major chains and dine at local favorites
Bethlehem Township residents have access to plenty of nationally recognized chains such as Giant, Walmart, Home Depot and TJ Maxx at Bethlehem Square shopping center on Nazareth Pike. And there are some independent options to choose from as well. For dining out, Bruno Scipioni’s Italian Ristorante & Pizzeria has been a local favorite for New York-style pies for more than 25 years. With the ambience of an oversized fireplace and upscale dishes like filet mignon, Blue Grillhouse is the go-to spot for date night. Both eateries are located on Easton Avenue.
Commuting to the Poconos and NYC via major interstates
And locals regularly make the drive to the Pocono Mountains and New York City for entertainment on a much larger scale. The hiking and ski resorts of the Poconos are about 50 miles north by way of Interstate 80, while New York City is an 80-mile drive east on Interstate 78. “It’s a great place for anyone who wants the convenience of being close to major highways,” Francis says. “You’d be surprised by all the people who travel or even commute for work to other cities.”
