About 104 W Bertsch St
If you're looking for a cookie cutter home, keep scrolling. This unique 3 Bedroom, 1 Bath home was built with Edison-style poured concrete construction, and you'll see the character everywhere from the gabled, board and batten exterior to the sculpted concrete staircase inside.
The home sits back on a .14 acre lot, and a curved brick paver walkway leads you to an enclosed Sunporch with oversized windows and exposed ceiling beams. It stays cheery and warm whatever the season, so this is where you'll end up with your morning coffee or a book at the end of the day. Head through the glass panel entry door, topped with a classic transom light, and you're in a spacious Living Room with large windows pulling in natural light. Keep going into the formal Dining Room, where an original corner hutch shows off your favorite dishes and the table fits everyday dinners and holiday crowds alike.
The Kitchen sits right off the Dining Room with wood cabinetry, a double basin sink, range, and refrigerator. The layout is practical, and it's ready for you to make it your own.
Then there's the staircase, framed by architectural concrete railings with recessed accent panels. It's the kind of craftsmanship guests always notice. Upstairs, you'll have a Main Bedroom with generous square footage and elevated views, plus 2 more Bedrooms with hardwood floors. Don't miss the Hallway closet tucked above the stairs, a clever bit of extra storage you'll use more than you'd think. The Full Bathroom has been completely remodeled with a clean, updated look, modern vanity fixtures, and an oversized shower you'll appreciate every morning.
The Full Basement has plenty of room to spare, and a coal burner provides hot water and comfortable steam heat throughout the home. Head outside to the side Patio and look out over the partially fenced Rear Yard, where you can relax and pets can roam. The yard and a detached Two-Car Garage with electric service sit along a private lane, so you've got private parking plus space for a workshop or your next project.
Homes like this don't come around often. Located in Carbon County's Panther Valley, a community steeped in coal mining and early railroad history, this home is a short drive to lake and river recreation and downtown Jim Thorpe. Route 209 and the Turnpike keep the Lehigh Valley within reach.
