Property Overview
534 W. Broad Street is a C2-zoned mixed-use building on Quakertown's primary commercial corridor with a significant advantage now confirmed: up to 1,325 square feet of ground floor commercial space available by right under Quakertown Borough's C2 General Commercial zoning. No township approval required. No conditional use process. No variance. The right exists in the zoning as written.
The first floor consists of two adjacent units — the approximately 725 SF former Rita's Water Ice commercial space with serving area, kitchen, entry, and hall, and the approximately 600 SF Unit 1 with bedroom, bathroom, laundry, kitchen, and basement storage access. Both are permitted for commercial use by right. A buyer may open the connecting wall for one 1,325 SF connected commercial footprint or operate them as two separate commercial units for different tenants or uses simultaneously. Note: Rita’s Water Ice is not included in the sale.
532A is currently occupied residential at $1,400 per month under a grandfathered use. At lease expiration the new owner could convert to commercial by right or continue residential tenancy. The commercial right exists in the zoning regardless of current use. Two residential apartments above — Unit 2 at $925 per month and Unit 3 at $1,400 per month New 3 Yr Lease beginning 10/20/2026 with annual escalation — provide immediate stabilized income with separate entrances.
Built 1920. Approximately 3,000 SF total per assessor. Private 6-space rear parking lot. Basement storage. Annual taxes $5,783.
The Commercial Footprint — Two Ways to Use It
Keep them separate: 725 SF commercial unit (NOW OFFICIALLY FOR RENT- See Details) and 600 SF commercial unit operating independently — two different tenants, two revenue streams, two separate entrances off W. Broad Street.
Open the wall: one connected 1,325 SF commercial footprint — food and beverage, retail, medical office, professional office, or personal service all permitted under C2 zoning. No approval required to make that connection.
For a food and beverage operator: 1,325 SF of first floor commercial with existing kitchen infrastructure from Rita's Water Ice, private rear parking in a corridor where parking is scarce, and W. Broad Street frontage serving an upper Bucks County trade area of 60,000 to 80,000 residents. Two residential apartments above produce income that offsets occupancy cost while you build your concept.
For the business owner currently paying rent: move your operation into 725 SF or the full 1,325 SF, collect either $3,375 (current) or $1,975 per month from two residential units above, and stop writing checks to someone else's mortgage. The math works at current residential rents. It works better at market rents.
C2 Zoning — Permitted Uses at 534 W. Broad Street
C2 (General Commercial) zoning in Quakertown Borough permits a broad range of commercial uses including retail, restaurant and food service, personal service, professional office, medical and dental office, financial services, and a wide range of owner-occupant business types.

Residential Income — Three Apartments
Three residential apartments with separate entrances provide immediate and stable rental income. Current gross residential income is $38,100 annually. All three units are occupied with signed leases. Residential rents are below current Quakertown market rates — providing documented upside at each lease renewal without capital expenditure. Current lease terms available upon request to qualified buyers.

The Owner-Occupant Opportunity
Time is running out to move your business into the 725 SF ground floor commercial space (NOW OFFICIALLY FOR RENT- See Details) — food and beverage, retail, personal service, professional office, or medical use all permitted under C2 zoning — and offset your occupancy cost with three residential income streams totaling $3,375/month. For a business currently paying $2,500 to $4,000 per month in rent, the residential income substantially reduces or eliminates net occupancy cost while the owner builds equity in the real estate. SBA 504 financing may be available for qualifying owner-occupant buyers at 10% down with long-term fixed rate financing. Get financing and don’t miss this opportunity to OWN a property that pays you.
The Investment Opportunity
Current gross income of $61,500 annually with below-market residential rents and a commercial footprint that can be repositioned to up to 1,325 SF at lease expiration — without any zoning approval requirement. Either 1 large 1,325 sq ft commercial space or 2 commercial spaces with 2 apartments upstairs. Or keep it 3 residential and 1 commercial unit.
