194 Bankway St, Lehighton, PA 18235

Property Description

Unique opportunity in the heart of Lehighton! This synagogue/temple property is ideally located just off the downtown hub of 1st Street, placing it within walking distance to local shops, restaurants, and everyday conveniences. Situated on two parcels totaling approximately 0.369 acres, the property includes a character-filled brick structure along with an additional adjoining lot, offering flexibility for expansion, parking, or redevelopment. The building features approximately 1,450 sq ft with a finished lower level, providing multiple functional spaces including a large open gathering area, kitchen, and restrooms. Architectural details such as stained glass windows and the traditional sanctuary layout create a distinctive setting ready to be reimagined. The second parcel offers a gated grass parking lot, adding valuable off-street parking and accessibility. Located in an R3 Medium-High Density Residential zoning district, this property presents strong potential for conversion to apartments, a single-family residence, professional offices, or a mixed-use setup (buyer to verify). Commuters will appreciate convenient access to Route 209, Route 443, and the PA Turnpike Northeast Extension (I-476), making travel throughout the Lehigh Valley and beyond simple. Close proximity to the Lehigh River, local parks, and all that downtown Lehighton has to offer further enhances the appeal. Public water/sewer service. Being sold AS-IS, this is a rare opportunity to transform a truly unique property in a prime in-town location with strong upside potential.
