About This Home

543 Chestnut Street

**Live in One & Rent the Other in the Heart of Emmaus!** Welcome to 543 Chestnut Street, a unique and charming property offering the flexibility of **two separate detached homes on one property**—all within easy walking distance of the Emmaus Triangle, farmers market, shops, restaurants, and the vibrant downtown Emmaus scene. The main residence is a beautifully maintained 3-bedroom left side of a twin filled with original character and thoughtfully updated over the years. Step inside through the stunning double front doors and you'll find newly installed LVP wood-look floors, a classic handrail, and the charm of an older Emmaus home combined with modern conveniences. The flexible floor plan includes a versatile room that can be used as a home office, dressing room, nursery, sitting room, or private extension of the primary bedroom. Also a recently renovated bathroom, convenient first-floor laundry, energy efficient natural gas heat, and gas cooking. Replacement windows add to the home's comfort and efficiency. Outside, enjoy the welcoming front porch, back patio, and yard—perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Off-street and on-street parking provide additional convenience. At the rear of the property is a **separate carriage house**, offering another private living space and an exciting range of possibilities. The carriage house features its own amenities, including a second-floor mini-split installed in 2019, newer roof, dishwasher, and a new hot water heater in 2026. The separate building creates the flexibility to **live in one and rent the other**, use the second space for extended family or guests, or simply enjoy the versatility that this unique property provides. Major improvements include a **new HVAC system in the main house installed in May 2026**, newly installed mini-splits in the carriage house, roofs replaced in 2021, extensive renovation of the main house in 2020. Vinyl windows, and numerous newer appliances. Best of all, you're not just buying a home—you're gaining the flexibility to create a living arrangement that works for you, with the potential for the second unit to help offset the cost of homeownership. **Two buildings. Endless possibilities. A walkable Emmaus location. Come see how 543 Chestnut Street could work for you!**
