5016 Allen Drive

From the moment you pull up, this home makes an impression. The full stone facade, covered portico entry, and manicured landscaping are the kind of curb appeal people drive through neighborhoods hoping to find. This 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath colonial in Monocacy Farms offers over 4,000 square feet of finished living space on a quiet street with no through traffic. The first floor is where this home sets itself apart. The primary suite is on the main level, offering a generously sized bedroom, an oversized bath with soaking tub, and a walk-in closet that actually fits your life; true one-floor living if you want it. The family room anchors the main level with vaulted ceilings and a woodburning fireplace; a space you actually want to spend your evenings in. It opens naturally to the kitchen, where a breakfast bar pass-through keeps things moving on busy mornings. A formal living room, separate dining room with a pass-through butlers pantry, and a dedicated laundry and mud room round out the first floor. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms share a full bath, a storage room currently used as a walk-in closet, and a loft that adds flexible bonus space. The lower level is a home within a home. A spacious bedroom and full bath create a private suite perfect for guests or in-laws, while an enormous media room and a den/office give you more room to spread out than most homes twice the price. Outside, a composite deck, fully fenced-in yard, fire pit, electric retractable awning, and utility shed make the backyard genuinely usable. Tucked into one of Bethlehem's most established neighborhoods, close to everything the Lehigh Valley has to offer yet quiet enough to feel like your own little corner of it. Homes like this; with this much space and this kind of setting, do not come around often. Come see it for yourself.
