146 N 5Th St Reading, PA 19601

Located at 146 N 5th Street in Reading, Pennsylvania, this five-unit mixed-use building resides within the Callowhill Historic District. The property is zoned CC - Commercial Core, situated in the heart of the downtown corridor, and benefits from flexible zoning that supports dense residential, retail, and service-oriented uses. The building features four one-bedroom apartments arranged over three upper floors, providing consistent residential income. The ground floor is occupied by an operating beauty salon, a tenant for over six years, offering established commercial tenancy at street level. This configuration makes the property suitable for investors seeking stable mixed-use cash flow in a historic urban setting. The 0.09-acre lot is zoned CC (Commercial Core), permitting apartments and mixed-use buildings with residential above commercial, retail shops and personal service businesses such as salons, barber shops, and dry cleaners, banks and financial institutions, bakeries and food-related retail (size-limited), art, craft, and gallery uses, offices, business services, and printing services, and civic, cultural, and entertainment uses such as theaters and performance spaces. This zoning flexibility, combined with long-term commercial tenancy and multiple residential units, positions the property for both continued operation and future redevelopment potential.
