About This Home

As of August 2017

Bierys Bridge is a pristine and rarely-traveled road that meanders creek-side, with winding curves and shaded vistas. On this road, a lovely 4.75 acre parcel beckons one to enter through pillars, up a long drive, to one of the few large parcels still remaining in North Bethlehem. This mid-century gem sits proudly atop the acreage, a diamond in the rough for those with the vision to recreate the past or embellish a gem. A marble foyer has an inlay, in copper amidst marble, of the sun that names this property. The LR & DR w/ FP has a pocket door with etched glass panels for private dining. A den boasts custom wood detailing, entertainment center & cocktail alcove, opening to a large eat-in kitchen. A 1st flr MBR has a bluestone patio that forms a courtyard. A separate BR wing has 3 Brs & 3 baths. An upper level master suite has FP & wonderful views, and boasts an enormous master closet & dressing suite. Bring your dreams to this special property that has always been a home of prominence
