The spacious living room showcases timeless period details, including elegant moldings and a distinctive newel post. The dining room sits conveniently between the living room and kitchen, with access to a half bath and the lower level. A true highlight is the generously sized eat-in kitchen, offering access to the side walkway as well as sliding doors leading to a cozy rear deck—perfect for relaxing or entertaining.

The renovated full bathroom features an updated vanity and a beautifully tiled tub surround. This is a fantastic opportunity to own a character-filled home in one of Bethlehem’s most picturesque and walkable neighborhoods.
