Property Description
Built in 1940, this semi-detached single-family home offers about 1,100 square feet of living space across three stories. It features three bedrooms and one and a half baths. The first floor includes a living room, dining area, kitchen, powder room, and laundry space. Upstairs, you'll find two bedrooms and a full bath, while the finished attic serves as a third bedroom or a flexible space for an office or hobby area. Outside, there's a private backyard and a detached two-car garage - ideal for storage or off-street parking.
Tower City is a small community in Schuylkill County where affordability keeps rental demand strong. Tenants appreciate the lower housing costs while staying within easy reach of larger job centers. Route 209 runs through town, with Interstate 81 just a short drive away, opening access to employment options throughout central Pennsylvania - including warehouse and distribution work along the I‑81 corridor, healthcare roles in Pottsville and Harrisburg, and local manufacturing jobs.
The area's economy helps support a stable rental market. Major employers like Lehigh Valley Hospital Schuylkill and Penn State Schuylkill bring steady demand for housing, while nearby Pottsville offers shopping, dining, and essential services. Local spots like the Big Top Diner add small-town charm, and outdoor recreation at Weiser State Forest is just minutes away.
With a long-term tenant, Section 8 approval, and a location that benefits from ongoing rental demand, 1241 E Grand Ave is a solid buy-and-hold property that balances affordability with consistent potential - ideal for both new and experienced investors.
