Property Description

History, serenity and commutability converge to create a magical setting in Bethlehem. This updated and extremely well-maintained c1810 stone farmhouse sits atop a small rise with a commanding view of its 350 feet of frontage along Monocacy Creek, a protected and conserved limestone tributary of the Lehigh River with native trout. Imagine fly-fishing opportunities in your front yard! The homestead of Captain Daniel Ritter, an American soldier in the War of 1812, the property boasts the antique farmhouse with 1989 addition, as well as the original stone summer kitchen and spring house, both believed to date back to the Revolutionary War era. Three floors of exceptional style and detail provide an estimated 4,370sf of finished and modern living spaces. Brick paths and stone walls traversing the grounds deliver you to several entrances to the house: both the main and the lower levels open to grade, allowing easy access to the landscaped and fully fenced grounds. Inside, rich wide plank oak floors salvaged from a c1800s Lancaster barn grace the main and upper floors. The main floor consists of the living room with crown molding and original stone fireplace with pellet stove. The primary bedroom is on this floor and offers two walk-in closets and a sumptuous marble en suite with double vanity, walk-in shower and separate water closet. Completing this floor, the sunroom gives a rustic feel with pine paneling and beadboard ceiling. Two very private bedrooms are found on the third floor, along with a quiet loft landing area and a renovated hall bath with marble vanity and glass shower. Expansive in size and uses, the great room is the perfect place to gather with three distinctly separate areas. The ceilings are vaulted, and remote-controlled skylights, numerous windows and double glass doors create a light-filled and airy venue for music, movies and mingling. Charm and character continue in the family room and open kitchen, with stone fireplace and pellet stove, walls of custom cabinets, granite counters, high-end appliances, propane cooking, large island, and window seats. Step out to the large, covered porch to enjoy bucolic views of Monocacy Creek. The footbridge delivers you to open lawn along the creek with beautiful views of the homestead. The stone antique outbuildings are ideal as potting shed, fish house, studio or office. In addition, there is a pull-thru garage with second floor storage, plus a substantial stone carriage house with 3-bays sized for large vehicles and RVs, and a 1,255sf one-bedroom guest apartment upstairs offering full kitchen, bath and laundry. Located in the desirable Pine Top Trail neighborhood and adjacent to Housenick Park and the Archibald Johnston Nature Preserve with miles of trails, birdwatching, and creek-side recreation. Enjoy smooth travels from this very commutable location.
