About this home
Super rare Bethlehem Location Combining: 5-minute walk to Main Street and many restaurants, 3-car garage, large yard, garden, 4-bedroom, beautifully renovated with heritage charm and modern living. Discover a rare combination of location, character and versatility in this beautifully updated circa-1900 home, situated on a quiet residential street in Northside Bethlehem, just outside the designated Historic District. Offering approximately **2,286 square feet, four finished bedrooms and two bathrooms**, this home combines historic charm with extensive modern improvements throughout. Enjoy an easy stroll to Bethlehem's vibrant Main Street (2 blocks, a 5-minute stroll), voted best main street in the USA two years running; Hotel Bethlehem, voted best historic hotel six years running; restaurants, shops and festivals, including the renowned Musikfest. The Lehigh River and regional walking and cycling trails are also nearby. Inside, you'll find generously proportioned rooms, a renovated kitchen with island, and flexible living spaces designed for modern lifestyles. Outside is where this property truly distinguishes itself. A super-rare three-car garage with convenient rear-street access, plus parking for two more cars on the pad, a newly finished detached studio (ideal for art, a home office, or a gym), and a substantial garden offer exceptional flexibility. The property also benefits from existing work-from-home approval, subject to applicable conditions. Multiple outdoor entertaining areas, including a generous barbecue and dining space, complement a dedicated vegetable garden, lawn for home sports, a raised deck for quiet relaxation, extensive new paved areas and a garden shed. Additional external improvements include new roofing on the garage and Florida room, a newer water heater, high-speed FIOS fibre internet, new concrete pathways (front and rear), newly painted exterior, and renovated and repaired gutters, removal of dead trees, repairs to fencing, renovated garden timbers, new garden vegetable patch, wine/grape vine. Additional internal improvements include a repaired hallway ceiling, a fully renovated loft/bedroom with polished wooden floors, renovated second-floor bedrooms, new carpet wall to wall on second floor and main starway, French doors to the lounge, a fully renovated kitchen, new appliances, a renovated basement stairway, and hundreds of other improvements. Existing 200-amp electrical service, also to the garage and studio; double-pane modern windows throughout for excellent thermal insulation; modern fan throughout; and a quiet, reliable "hydronic" heating system with electronic control. In 2024, we were granted "A Major Home Occupation", which allows the use of the property as a business and employing one full-time employee under the conditions stated in the Bethlehem Council Records dated November 8th 2024. With substantial recent investment in the surrounding Northside neighbourhood, this property offers the best of both worlds. A peaceful residential setting within walking distance of everything that makes Bethlehem special. The story: As far as we know, the previous owner occupied the house and, though well-intentioned, let it go for about 15 years, with an overgrown yard, poor paintwork, and outdated furnishings. Before that, it was "flipped", and many fittings were hastily overpainted, with much of the rework not high quality. We are proud to have spent over 2000 hours lovingly restoring this home and hope the new owners care for this beautiful home as we have....
