MULTIPLE OFFERS RECEIVED! HIGHEST AND BEST BY SUNDAY, MAY 25, 2025 AT 6PM.
Go back in time to a classic freshly painted Victorian home in sought after West Bethlehem that offers a beautiful wrap-around porch, hardwood floors throughout much of the home and stunning leaded glass windows. The first floor begins with a spacious living room with bay windows, brick fireplace and lovely french doors that lead to a lovely dining room. The kitchen can take you back in time to a day when steel cabinets were the rage. Consider it a blank slate for your design talents! Completing the first floor is a full bath, not often found in homes of this vintage. The second floor contains four bedrooms, each with good closet space and hardwood floors, a full bath and an enclosed porch off of one of the bedrooms. The third floor flex space has much potential - family room, play room or office - to meet your needs. Full basement with outside entrance as well as a 2-car detached garage complete the package. Seller to provide a clear CO from the City of Bethlehem. Bring your designer talents to this home with great bones!
