Own a piece of history! Antique lovers will adore this Victorian home set on West Broadway in the quaint village of Jim Thorpe. This historic home was used as a convent for the “Sisters of the Immaculate Conception”. Restored by previous owners, the house embodies all the elegance of the town’s origin as a vacation spot for wealthy industrialists. Built in 1856, the 2BR, 1 BA home features an antique gas stove in the kitchen. A double front door opens into a fabulous living room and dining room with gorgeous marble fireplace and built-in curio cabinets. Plank floors, original woodwork, built-in bookcases, fireplaces, and original stained-glass windows and chandeliers add charm throughout the living space. A dramatic staircase takes you up to a living room/library, lit by a cathedral ceiling and warmed by a gas fireplace. The library opens out to a garden area with two-tier patio and Koi Pond. Offering privacy and luxury, stained glass double doors, carved closet doors, and an adjoining, ceramic-tiled master bath complete the master bedroom. A spiral staircase leads to a third-floor bedroom suite with a half-bath. The house is for sale furnished, giving buyers the extraordinary opportunity to move in as is. The best part is the location: Jim Thorpe is a vibrant destination with festivals, train rides, bike trails, hiking, restaurants, and cultural activities. Surrounded by history, it's the perfect place to live or retire!

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.

GreatSchools scores are based on a scale from 1 to 10, where 10 is above average. The school service areas are not definitive and should only be used as guidance.
Walk Score is the most well-known measure of walkability for any address. It is based on the distance to a variety of nearby services and pedestrian friendliness. Walk Scores range from 0 (Car-Dependent) to 100 (Walker’s Paradise).
Bike Score®
Provided by WalkScore® Inc.
Bike Score evaluates a location's bikeability. It is calculated by measuring bike infrastructure, hills, destinations and road connectivity, and the number of bike commuters. Bike Scores range from 0 (Somewhat Bikeable) to 100 (Biker’s Paradise).
Air Pollution Index
Provided by ClearlyEnergy
The air pollution index is calculated by county or urban area using the past three years data. The index ranks the county or urban area on a scale of 0 (best) - 100 (worst) across the United Sates.
Listing Agents and Buyer’s Agents represent the two sides of a real estate transaction. As a Seller of a home, your Listing Agent represents your interests and will advise, consult and follow your instructions to sell your property at the best possible price and terms.
If you’re a Buyer, a Buyer’s Agent advises you throughout the transaction, helping you get the best deal and advocating for you. The Buyer’s Agent commission is also paid by the Seller, so the Buyer never sees a bill for their service.
Many first time Buyers believe they can work without a Buyer’s Agent and instead use the same agent as the Seller. When both Buyer and Seller use the same agent, known as “dual agency”, it can sometimes save on fees, but it also puts the agent in a conflict of interest, not fully representing either party.
