Property Description

Highest and Best by June 8th 6pm. Steeped in history and architectural character, The Schwindt House-named for the original landowner-stands proudly along the eastern edge of Bethlehem's Historic District. Built in 1868, this remarkable residence showcases a collection of preserved period details while offering thoughtful modern updates for today's lifestyle. A welcoming open staircase anchors the home, rising gracefully through the 2nd and 3rd levels and setting the tone for the craftmanship throughtout. Original pumpkin pine floors, curved plaster walls, and original doors and hardware reflect the home's rich heritage. Soaring 10' ceilings enhance the sense of openness while numerous windows invite sunlight to flow through the living spaces. The beautifully updated kitchen features tile flooring, quartz counters, classic subway tile backsplash and a suite of new Thermador appliances. A convenient mudroom and first floor laundry add practicality to everyday living. The dining room features a bay window overlooking a secluded English-inspired garden with newly constructed brick walls topped with wrought iron fencing which was sourced from an 1800s NY estate. A salt water hot tub and a covered north side patio complete the outdoor space, providing an enchanting setting for entertaining, gardening or relaxing. The second floor offers four comfortable bedrooms-the smallest one currently used as an office-and a full bathroom while the unfinished third level presents possibilities for future expansion-whether envisioned as a home office, playroom, artist's studio or guest accommodations. There are two off-site garages available to rent with separate rental agreements - just a half block from this property. The location of this historic home is just steps from downtown Main Street, Bethlehem Public Library and Moravian Museums and Sites, recently designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is just 85 miles to NYC and 70 miles to Philly! Be part of an urban lifestyle in this much loved city. Property will be conveyed with a clear Certificate of Occupancy.
