Step back in time to this 19th Century Brick Colonial. Truly a piece of history with tons of charm and original millwork. With a little updating, it can be a beautiful multi-family home or a profitable two-unit investment property in the heart of North Bethlehem. Five bedrooms, two kitchens, separate electric, and separate laundry for both units make this a great multi-family property. The large detached 2-car garage with original post and beam construction and board and batten siding is a handyman's dream and includes extensive storage space in the huge loft. Close to schools, restaurants, shops and easy access to highways, it's perfectly located for families. All of the charm of an old home, but well cared for with updated vinyl windows, updated 200amp electrical, regularly serviced boiler with new chimney flu, and updated modern plumbing. Don't hesitate! This home is priced to sell!
