601 E Broad Street , Tamaqua, PA 18252

Property Description

A rare opportunity to own one of the grand homes of Tamaqua’s East Broad Street is now upon you. For over a century this home has stood, overlooking Tamaqua’s main throughfare, with its eye-catching wrap-around front porch, gingerbread cladding, and stained-glass windows. Neatly divided into two units, the home presents an even rarer opportunity to add a beauty like this to your portfolio near the heart of downtown Tamaqua. A shared foyer offers front porch access to both units. The first-floor unit encompasses a spacious living room, two generous bedrooms, dining room, kitchen and full bath. This level offers ample charm in the original detail in moldings, doors, hardwood floors, and stained glass. A wide wooden staircase climbs elegantly to the second floor, where the second unit offers a sprawling open-concept Living Room flowing into the eat-in Kitchen, modern design in a historic home! Two bedrooms on this level are paired with an office, full bath, and laundry room. Accessed via Unit 2, the third floor presents the potential, with finishing touches, to add an upper level of living space to the second unit, totaling a possible 5 bedrooms! A detached one car garage offers convenience and the possibility of added rental income! Just a few blocks from the heart of Tamaqua, the home places you in wonderful proximity to shopping and dining offered in this rapidly growing downtown, as well as wonderful performing and visual arts programs and community festivals throughout the year. Graduates of the Tamaqua School District qualify for the LCCC two-year scholarship program. Beyond the ever-increasing offerings of town, areas of outstanding natural beauty are found in multiple nearby state parks as well as Owl Creek Reservoir, while charming Jim Thorpe overflows with exiting shops and restaurants and acts as a gateway to the outdoor adventure of the Pocono Region! A historic gem prominently placed, thoughtfully divided into multiple dwellings, set for prime access to both the convenience of town and beauty of nature, don’t miss your opportunity to make all of this yours!
