One of Historic Bethlehem’s most admired stone homes, East Market Street was built in the 1920’s as a doctor’s residence. The stone walls of the house are striking, & there are stunning architectural details w/brick appointments, arches w/solid oak doorways, slate roofs w/intriguing rooflines, all reminiscent of an English country home, w/stone walled patios & original leaded & stained-glass windows. There is a floor plan of 6928 finished square feet on 4 floors, w/5 bedrooms & a lower level walkout apartment…unique enhancements for an Historic Bethlehem residence. The living room boasts 10ft ceilings, mullioned glass French doors & leaded glass window bay. The primary bedroom has 10-foot ceilings, a fireplace & a bath w/a lovely 2017 remodel of marble & glass. Continuing outside, there is a lovely garden area w/paver walkways, circular patio & specimen plantings. Parking for more than 6 cars, as well as an attached garage, are very rare for homes in the area.
