About This Home
As of October 2025Unleash your senses in the heart of historic Bethlehem with this dazzling, one-of-a-kind, circa 1865 single-family home—a true masterpiece reborn! You will not find another single-family, 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home with a 3-car garage anywhere around this price in downtown Bethlehem! This treasure in vibrant North Bethlehem is just steps away from the restaurant scene of Main Street. This house was not flipped. It underwent a 6-month renovation by Shafer Construction, a renowned Bethlehem business specializing in the restoration of historic homes. It has also been nominated for a Historic Renovation Award by the Lehigh Valley Builders Association.
The old-world charm fused with jaw-dropping modern luxury. Revel in the thrill of a primary suite with heated tile floors in the en suite bathroom warming your every step, primp like a star in front of a sleek LED-backlit mirror, and toast to life with chilled vintages from your built-in beverage cooler. Ignite your culinary passions on a cutting-edge gas cooktop, illuminated by under-cabinet lighting and complemented by a tile backsplash. Stay secure with Ring doorbells, seamless keyless entry, and a mail slot, while a gas furnace and central air conditioning keep you comfortable year-round. All of this set against the historic staircase, tall baseboards, rosettes, and authentic lighting from the early 1900s. It’s a proper mix of historic preservation for the modern family. It is a brand-new 150-year-old home!
