Property Description
Home to be on HGTV House Hunters 2:00 PM December 24th, 2015. Sheltered amidst old landscaping and a canopy of mature trees, this architectural gem enjoys a premier location in Bethlehem's distinguished Historic District. On little-traveled High Street, across from the old Moravian Cemetery, the land deed dates to William Chapman in 1868, where an original brick home was probably destroyed by fire. Replaced in 1917 by the Armisteads with a New England Shingle Style home, it is notably one of the great homes of the area. A front porch welcomes even the most casual passerby, prominently-positioned on a corner lot. Rich in colonial appointments, the interior boasts high ceilings and is both gracious and livable. Large formal rooms have hardwood floors and fireplaces and open, one to the other, in formal array. The classic dining room effortlessly accommodates entertaining. A library features a fireplace, walls of built-ins and a wet bar. The spacious living room has grand proportions, yet can be intimate enough for cozy family gatherings. Romantic nooks and crannies and mellow woodwork throughout are just a few of the charms in this historic home, where each turn reveals delightful architectural details. A second floor has a master bedroom suite with a warm and inviting ambience. Three additional bedrooms, two baths and an office complete the 2nd floor, while the lower level has a second family room and additional rooms for hobbies and storage. Finally, High Street welcomes every lifestyle with a 2002, light-filled conservatory with vaulted ceiling and an indoor, heated pool and spa with opening roof, grill, bath, bar and adobe oven as an extra surprise ? perfect for entertaining or enjoying family time and just relaxing. This wonderful property has all the vintage appointments you would expect, plus a large backyard, sandstone patio, garage and a private driveway.
