1521 E 6th Street in Bethlehem.

By Michael Mashburn From Daily Voice

A century-old former church in Pennsylvania is on the market, offering soaring ceilings, stained-glass windows, and a whole lot of character for buyers willing to bring a little vision.

The brick building at 1521 E. 6th St. in South Bethlehem is listed for $350,000 and includes one bedroom, one bathroom, and 1,931 square feet of living space, according to the listing from Century 21 Ramos Realty.

Built in 1916, the property was previously converted for residential use but still carries much of its original ecclesiastical charm.

Listing photos on Zillow show expansive open rooms, large windows that flood the interior with natural light, and a sizable lower-level basement that could serve as creative or commercial space. A series of tall stained-glass windows remain intact throughout the main hall.

The property sits within Bethlehem’s revitalization and improvement zone and backs directly up to the City of Bethlehem Greenway, giving it rare walkability and direct access to the popular trail, the listing states.

Photos show a building that needs significant cosmetic work. The main room includes ornate wallpaper depicting Jesus, angels, and clouds—now peeling in sections—and several interior surfaces show signs of age and disrepair.

Still, the wide-open layout and historic details offer a compelling foundation for buyers looking to transform a one-of-a-kind space.

The listing notes that the home next door and a parking lot across the street may also be available for purchase, potentially expanding redevelopment options.

The property has been listed for 131 days and has drawn more than 1,560 views on Zillow alone.
