Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
This restored Victorian mixed-use property features street-level commercial space currently operating as a beauty salon, along with two updated residential units. Unit 1 is a 2-bedroom home with a new marble bath. Unit 2 is a spacious duplex with porches and high ceilings. Across both units, interior finishes include granite kitchens, new stainless appliances, and oak floors. The building also includes a restored tower with white copper detail and a mansard slate roof.
Constructed circa 1900 by a German immigrant as the city’s first creamery/cheese shop, the property has been meticulously restored and is located in Allentown’s West Walnut Historic District, described as steps from downtown. The tower is noted for providing panoramic views extending 345 degrees of South Mountain and historic landmarks.
With residential units plus street-level retail, the building can fit an owner-occupant who wants to live above and operate from the commercial space, or an investor seeking mixed-use income from both components. The property is described as ready to go, with a clear CO in hand.
