Property Description
212-214 N 8th St blends historic charm, modern updates, and strong investment potential-all in one of Allentown's most treasured neighborhoods. This exceptional mixed-use property is the type of investment any discerning buyer would be proud to add to their portfolio. The residential unit features 4 spacious bedrooms and 1.5 baths, showcasing classic Old Allentown character with gleaming hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, elegant winding staircases, and architectural details lovingly maintained through generations. A mini-split A/C system provides powerful cooling without the hassle of window units. Step through sliding glass doors into your very own "secret garden" patio-a private, fenced, and locked outdoor retreat perfect for relaxing or entertaining. Rear gated access provides off-street parking, which could be extended for more spaces if desired. The commercial unit offers 1,300 sq ft of versatile space currently configured with 3 private offices, a reception area, break room, and 1/2 bath. The space is separately metered, with the tenant responsible for their own electricity. The owner currently covers the building's gas/heat costs, which totaled just $2,563 over the past 12 months. With the current tenant relocating by July 31, the space will soon be ready for a new business or creative vision. Situated in the vibrant Old Allentown Historic District, this detached brick building offers both residential charm and commercial opportunity on one beautifully preserved lot.
