Once upon a time there was a Bethlehem Steel exec who lived in the most adorable Chateau Style Cottage in Old Rosemont...through the years this home has maintained its charm while it has been expanded and cherished. This gem is now available for its next steward, one who appreciates timeless charm, classic architecture, quirky spaces, modern amenities commingled with in town living. As you pull up to this beauty you will immediately fall in love with the French Eclectic architecture, tree lined street and private park to the rear. Entering the foyer, the warm plaster walls envelope you and you transport back to a simpler time. The bright living room features a brick and bespoke tile fireplace, access to the screened in porch & pass through to the formal dining room. The dining room overlooks lovely gardens and privacy. The period appropriate kitchen/family room is sure to be a gathering spot. The custom cabinetry, luxury appliances and thoughtful layout will lead to many memories. The second floor features a Primary Bedroom with abundant light, a period appropriate bath with an enormous tub. The front bedroom is generously sized as the original primary, an original hall bath and 3rd bedroom complete this floor. The outside brick patio, access to the one car garage and lush lawn and trees plus screened in porch make outside a tranquil space. Old Rosemont is a special place and now you can live happily ever after here. Preservation is not about the past, it is about the future!
