1327-1331 W Chew St is a 48-bed mixed-use asset in Allentown, PA. 1327–1331 W Chew Street is comprised of 48 bedrooms and nine bathrooms. The property includes a commercial lease for the ground-floor bar/restaurant space, offering stable income at $3,500 per month. The tenant is responsible for 100 percent of the common area maintenance. Importantly, the lease contains a clause requiring the liquor license to revert to the landlord for $1.00 at lease expiration, preserving long-term asset value. The property holds a Pennsylvania Hotel Liquor License (H License), which permits alcohol sales tied to lodging but carries room-count requirements and limited flexibility. Under Act 125, qualifying H licenses with a room exemption filed before January 1, 2019, may be converted into a more valuable and transferable Restaurant Liquor License (R License) through the PLCB+ system for a $30,000 fee. R licenses offer broader use, fewer restrictions, and greater market appeal to bars and restaurants. If eligible and in good standing, the conversion is administrative and typically completes within a few months. This upgrade can significantly enhance the property's income potential, tenant options, and overall asset value.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
