******ALL OFFERS DUE Thursday, May 7th at 12 pm.****** Some people dream of a life where the morning sounds like birdsong, the view from every window is pure nature, and the land beneath your feet is truly your own. 725 Buttermilk Road is that place. Tucked peacefully along a quiet country road yet minutes from everything the Lehigh Valley offers, this 5-bedroom, 2.5-bath Cape Cod sits on over 10 private acres enrolled in Act 319 (Clean & Green). Raise an animal, tend a garden, harvest your own fruit trees, explore woodland trails, or simply exhale. This land welcomes all of it. A sweeping curved driveway, blooming red Japanese maple, mature landscaping, and a classic covered front porch set the tone the moment you arrive. The attached 2-car garage, shed, and red run-in shed with fenced pasture are ready for whatever hobby or homestead vision you bring. The first-floor primary suite offers effortless single-level living with luxury vinyl plank flooring, rustic barn door sliders, and two walk-in closets with built-in shelving. The en suite bath features a soaking jetted tub with peaceful views, walk-in shower, and double vanity. The generous kitchen is built for real, purposeful living — dark espresso cabinetry to the ceiling, a farmhouse stainless apron sink, a soapstone-topped island, dual wall ovens, cooktop, stainless refrigerator, and recessed lighting throughout. The adjoining breakfast nook with abundant natural light and a built-in mudroom keep everyday living seamless and organized. The great room impresses with a shiplap-style wood accent wall, custom built-in shelving, luxury vinyl plank floors, and oversized windows framing views of blooming redbud trees and the spacious back yard. The full basement — insulated, plumbed, and featuring a wood-burning stove on a circular paver hearth — is ready to finish as a workshop, rec room, gym, or additional living space. Fruit trees, fenced pasture, mature woodland, and open sky — all in the Wilson Area School District, minutes from Hellertown and Bethlehem. Schedule your private showing today!
