Property Description

Welcome to 611 W Market Street, a grand brick Victorian built in 1901 by James Bock, proudly located in Pottsville’s historic Garfield Square. Offering over 3,100 square feet across three stories, this remarkable home provides a flexible floor plan and a range of possibilities for its next owner. Inside, you’ll find an abundance of original features beautifully preserved including a striking three-story staircase, stained and leaded glass windows, pocket doors, carved wood mantels, crown molding, and hardwood flooring throughout the formal rooms. The gas-insert fireplace with tile accents anchors the main living space, while the parlor and dining room evoke a warm sense of history and elegance. A first-floor full bath, main kitchen, and butler’s pantry/laundry room add functionality to the home’s classic layout. Upstairs, the second-floor suite functions well as an in-law apartment, featuring a kitchenette, bedroom with walk-in closet, and a bright front room with bay window — offering flexible space for extended family or guests. A hallway bath with marble-topped sink adds comfort, while the rear of the floor includes a home office/sitting room and an additional storage area.The third floor features two bedrooms, a full bath with tile flooring and walk-in shower, and a spacious dressing room or walk-in closet. Outdoor amenities include covered side and rear porches, a private courtyard and patio, and a detached garage with alley access creating peaceful and functional outdoor living spaces. While the home awaits your intentional cosmetic updates, the major mechanical systems have been recently addressed, including a 2-year-old Utica steam boiler, 2-year-old 40-gallon gas water heater, 200 AMP electric, and a sump pump, offering peace of mind and a strong foundation. The home is topped with a metal and rubber roof. Zoned C-1, the property offers incredible flexibility for live/work use, multi-generational living, or as a unique short-term rental all just minutes from the Yuengling Brewery, local historic attractions, and outdoor recreation. With its original features intact and exceptional potential, this home is ready for its next steward to restore it to full glory. This property will be open to the public on Sunday June 1st from 1:00PM to 3:00PM.
