About This Home
Love to be in the mix of it all? This Bethlehem gem places you just blocks from the world-famous Musikfest and within walking distance to historic downtown, with its vibrant lineup of restaurants, bars, and shops. Enjoy evenings at favorites like Edge, Tapas on Main, and Twisted Olive, or stroll to year-round festivals including Celtic Fest, Sangria Fest, Oktoberfest, and Christmas in Bethlehem. Beyond the walkable lifestyle, you’re only minutes from Target, Wegmans, the Lehigh Valley Mall, and other major retailers—making this the perfect blend of convenience and culture.
A spacious driveway for 2–3 cars, plus street and rear parking, welcomes you home. Step into the foyer where an elegant newel post and railing highlight the home’s craftsmanship. Hardwood floors flow seamlessly through the living room, dining room, kitchen, and sunroom, giving a warm, timeless feel.
The updated kitchen is a centerpiece, featuring shaker-style soft-close cabinetry, granite countertops, an undermount sink with updated faucet and filtered water spout, and stainless steel appliances: a 4-burner gas oven with griddle, built-in microwave, side-by-side refrigerator, and dishwasher. A center island with stool seating, chic chandelier, 9’ ceilings, and abundant natural light create a perfect gathering spot. The adjoining sunroom—with a slider to the backyard—makes an inviting space for coffee or casual meals. A stylish powder room completes the first floor.
The open living and dining space combines classic wood trim, deep window sills, modern lighting, and a mounted TV setup—ideal for both entertaining and relaxing.
Upstairs, the primary bedroom has a custom barn door and hardware leading to a convenient laundry area. Smart blinds, a sleek “fandelier,” and an ensuite with tile flooring, custom shelving, deep soaking tub with glass doors, and striking black fixtures make this space so inviting. The second bedroom has been converted into a luxe walk-in closet with chandelier (easily returned to a bedroom), while the third bedroom features a fandelier and a view of the beautiful Moravian Church. A freshly updated hall bath with a tub, white vanity with drawers, and tile flooring serves the additional bedrooms.
The clean, spacious attic offers storage or potential to finish for more living space. The basement—with Bilco doors and past use as a woodshop—adds versatility.
Out back, discover your peaceful oasis in the city: a lush yard with a lovely patio, gardens, greenhouse, and plenty of room to host friends or enjoy quiet evenings. Perfect for entertaining or the garden enthusiast.
This home combines the solid craftsmanship of an older build with the comfort of modern updates and finishes—all in a location where you can embrace Bethlehem’s rich culture, festivals, and dining scene while enjoying the calm of your own backyard retreat.
