25 E MARKET ST Bethlehem, PA 18018

Bethlehem was founded in 1741 by members of the Moravian Church. Ben Franklin, George & Martha Washington, John Adams, Samuel Adams, John Hancock, Ethan Allen and John Paul Jones are just a few of the notable visitors in Bethlehem's history. The G. Luckenbach House is an historic place, dated 1875, a premiere representative of its dignified heritage, and the embodiment of all that Historic Bethlehem has carefully preserved. This treasured property is warm and comfortable, with rooms that ring true to its provenance. The first floor welcomes with charming appointments of warm wood flooring, classic moldings, fireplace, exceptional ceiling heights and a character that only time could provide. The 2001 kitchen renovation and family room addition, with full bath, add functionality but continue the beauty and history by details such as a barreled ceiling and classic windows to the outdoor gardens. The 2001 family room could be a first floor bedroom as well. Upstairs, the two bedrooms and exercise/sitting room and bath create the perfect family oasis. A gardener's paradise, there is a cottage shed, a potting area, a terrace accented by stone and perennials and winding paths between the covered porch and luxurious mature landscaping. Representing one of the area's classic original homes, this location in the protected Historic District is a treasure. Walk to all that makes Bethlehem unique, enjoy the warm and welcoming atmosphere of a historic and preserved environment and yet commute easily on Routes 22, I 78 and the PA turnpike. The G. Luckenbach House is truly a jewel among all of Bethlehem's Moravian treasures.
