Welcome to this charming and character-rich Craftsman-style Cape Cod located in West Bethlehem's sought-after Rosemont neighborhood. This lovingly maintained 2-story home offers timeless appeal with modern updates throughout. Step into the spacious 24' x 9' enclosed front porch, perfect for relaxing, which opens through French doors into a generous living room featuring built-in bookcases, wood fireplace and 8'5" ceilings that enhance the sense of space and light. The formal dining room leads to a beautiful kitchen with brand-new stainless steel appliances and new flooring (2024), plus access to a cozy 17' x 7' rear enclosed porch. The first floor also includes a convenient primary bedroom with a private half bath ensuite. Upstairs, you'll find three additional nice sized bedrooms and a full hall bath. Outside, enjoy the fenced yard, paver patio, and a detached 2-car garage. A unique opportunity to own a home full of warmth, character, and functionality in one of Bethlehem's most desirable neighborhoods! Interesting Fact: 650 Highland Avenue was once home to Henry Sylvester Jacoby, a leading civil engineer of the early 20th century. A professor and author of foundational bridge design still studied today, Jacoby chose this home for his retirement. His legacy in engineering and education adds historic depth to this character-filled property, a rare chance to own a piece of Bethlehem's and America's intellectual heritage.
