Notable for its timeless heritage and beauty, The Carter Republic House stands on land that was part of the Walking Purchase of 1737. The original deed lists founding father John Penn as the first owner of this meticulously preserved treasure with 1790s beginnings. Random width pine floors, crown moldings and deep silled windows enhance three levels of living space. Ten-foot ceilings and a wood burning fireplace are found in the inviting living room. The gourmet kitchen is equipped with fine appointments including soapstone countertops, custom cabinetry, high end appliances, an island with seating and adjacent dining area. A former summer kitchen has been transformed into a delightful family room with second working fireplace, stone walls, and French doors to a professionally landscaped yard. Captivating outdoor living space includes a flagstone patio with covered pergola, a five person Viking hot tub, raised bed vegetable gardens, and a 18x24 outbuilding with vaulted ceiling and built-in shelves for great storage options. Three zoned heating and air conditioning, public water and sewer and a two-car attached garage are desirable amenities. History and luxury in an exceptional Lehigh Valley location, this landmark property has easy access to commuter routes, upscale shopping and restaurants, and popular recreational and medical facilities.
