505 E 5th St

About This Property

505 E 5th St is a standout option for students seeking Lehigh off campus housing with more space than the typical student rental. At nearly 1,900 square feet, this is one of the most spacious homes in the CollegevilleLiving portfolio — giving a group of four roommates generous room to live comfortably without feeling crowded.

E 5th Street sits in a part of South Bethlehem that balances campus access with everyday convenience. Students here can walk to Lehigh's academic buildings without it being a burden, while also being close to the restaurants, shops, and social spots that make downtown Bethlehem worth living near.

The square footage sets 505 E 5th St apart from most other student rentals near Lehigh. Larger bedrooms, more common area space, and a functional layout make this home ideal for students who prioritize comfort as much as location. A full kitchen, shared living room, and room to spread out make day-to-day off campus life noticeably better than dorm or standard apartment living.

For many Lehigh students, moving off campus delivers both independence and financial savings. Split among four students, the monthly cost at 505 E 5th St is competitive with Lehigh's on-campus housing and meal plan — while providing significantly more space and a better overall living experience.

Students planning for Lehigh housing 2027 or 2028 should act early. Large, well-located homes fill faster than smaller options because demand from groups of four consistently outpaces supply in South Bethlehem.
