Property Description
Nestled on 1.5 private acres in highly sought-after Bethlehem, this beautifully renovated log cabin offers the perfect blend of rustic charm and modern luxury. With over $150,000 in improvements completed between 2024–2025, this home has been thoughtfully upgraded inside and out.
The completely redesigned kitchen is a true showpiece, featuring granite countertops, custom cabinetry with soft-close doors, slide-out shelving, lazy susan, spice rack, and built-in organizers. The custom island includes pop-up outlets with USB-A and USB-C charging. High-end GE Café Series appliances include dual ovens and double dishwashers, complemented by a matching refrigerator and microwave. A built-in china cabinet and cozy eat-in dining area provide both functionality and charm.
The living room showcases soaring ceilings with exposed beams and a stunning rock-front gas log fireplace (converted from wood-burning), creating a warm and inviting space. A custom windmill-style ceiling fan adds a unique focal point. Updated metal railings lead to the upper level, enhancing the open and airy feel.
This home offers two spacious bedrooms, each designed to feel like a private suite. The main-level primary suite features abundant natural light, added ceiling insulation for sound reduction, and a fully renovated spa-style bathroom with a freestanding soaking tub, walk-in tile shower with rainfall and handheld fixtures, double vanity, and a custom walk-in closet system.
Upstairs, the second suite boasts vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, a fully remodeled bathroom with tile shower and glass door, and charming custom built-in bunk beds. A cozy loft/nook overlooking the living area provides the perfect spot for a reading area, office, or TV space.
Major system upgrades include all new Windsor double-hung windows, new Therma-Tru fiberglass exterior doors, a brand-new high-efficiency HVAC system (2025), and a Rinnai tankless water heater.
Outdoor features include a fully updated deck with new flooring and railings, along with a 10x20 storage shed/workshop with electricity—ideal for hobbies, storage, or equipment.
The full basement (approx. 1,000 sq ft) is framed, insulated, and ready for completion, with plumbing in place for a bathroom and electrical rough-ins including two 240V outlets. Previous plans included additional living space and a sauna. (Septic capacity for additional bedrooms not verified—buyer to confirm.)
Permits available from the county, contractor list, Extra notes and full improvement list are available upon request (PLEASE ask your agent to provide copies of additional information available). A few outside pics are "twilight" enhanced.
This one-of-a-kind property offers peaceful wooded living with high-end finishes and room to expand—truly a rare find in Bethlehem.
