Property Description
The rich history of this c.1755 colonial, one of Bethlehem's oldest properties, is evident upon entering this distinctive home. A 1766 map identifies this address as the first wheelwright shop in Bethlehem. Restored log walls and pumpkin pine floors grace the living room and dining room while the pub also offers an exposed brick wall, slate floor, fieldstone bar and a kitchenette. First floor full bath has a spa-like bluestone shower and brick wall. Fabulous kitchen addition offers a large island with soapstone counter, 6 burner Jenn Air gas stove, double ovens, counter seating, coffee station and ample storage. Expansive back patio with a garden shed and well-tended perennials provides restful outdoor spaces. Guest bedroom on the second level has access to a newly redone outdoor terrace. Primary bedroom suite with tray ceiling, dimmable lights and corner fireplace is a tranquil retreat at the end of the day. Large walk-in closet has custom shelving and an abundance of storage. Full bathroom has glass shower and pedestal sink and a convenient laundry room is just down the hall. Third floor bedroom/office is bright and sunny and a full bath has a vintage pedestal sink and claw foot tub. In the heart of Historic Bethlehem just steps away from restaurants, shops, museums and festivals, this home is just 80 miles to NYC and 60 miles to Philadelphia!
