Property Description
Now Offered at $279,900 | Flexible Living Near Historic Jim Thorpe. Set in one of Pennsylvania's most iconic destination towns - often called the "Switzerland of America" - North St offers a rare opportunity to own a spacious, multi-level home just minutes from Jim Thorpe's Historic District, the Lehigh Gorge Scenic Railway, and miles of hiking, biking, rafting, and outdoor adventure. With over 2,300 sq ft of finished living space, this thoughtfully updated twin blends historic character with modern versatility. The home features multiple living areas, updated kitchens and baths, first-floor laundry, a finished attic and basement, and a welcoming covered front porch - ideal after a day exploring town. A fenced rear yard, detached garage, off-street parking, and alley access add everyday convenience rarely found in borough homes. Beyond traditional owner-occupied living, the property's layout and R-3 zoning designation may support alternative residential uses, such as a Bed & Breakfast, two-unit configuration, or group living arrangement, subject to Borough approvals and zoning compliance. While short-term rentals are not currently approved, the zoning offers meaningful long-term flexibility for buyers with vision. Whether used as a full-time residence, a weekend escape, or a future lifestyle-driven investment with proper approvals, this home offers location, character, and optionality in one of PA's most sought-after mountain towns. Experience Jim Thorpe living firsthand.
