About This Home
As of October 2023Pride of ownership is evident in this charming West Bethlehem Victorian. Featuring original millwork, tall ceilings, exposed brick and stained-glass windows this home has the charm and character of a home built in 1910 but the conveniences for today’s homeowner. The current owners have carefully updated the kitchen with Fisher Paykel stainless appliances including a wine refrigerator while preserving the appeal of the exposed brick walls. 3 bedrooms on the 2nd level and 2 additional rooms on the 3rd level offer plenty of living space. Fully updated baths include marble finishes. In the fenced in backyard, you will find a private oasis perfect for relaxing or outdoor dining as well as 2 off street parking spaces. This home is located directly across from the Rose Garden making it easy to visit the seasonal farmer’s market and enjoy summer concerts in the park. Just a short walk from Historic Downtown Bethlehem.
