Selling Your Home in Lewisburg, PA
Lewisburg sits on the West Branch of the Susquehanna River in Union County, where Route 45 (Market Street) meets US 15, bordered by East Buffalo Township and about seven miles south of I-80. Williamsport is roughly 30 miles north and Harrisburg about 60 miles south. Founded in 1785, it has long been the market town for the Buffalo Valley.
A river town with a lively downtown
The historic downtown along Market Street is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, anchored by the 1939 Campus Theatre, the Lewisburg Children’s Museum and a row of local shops and restaurants. The calendar stays full — a Fall Festival in October, a tree lighting in early December and an Ice Festival each February. Bucknell University sits at the edge of town, families gather at Hufnagle Park and the Lewisburg Area Recreation Park, and kids attend the Lewisburg Area School District.
Who’s buying here
About 5,200 people live in the borough, many of them Bucknell students, so in-town households are small and more than half of homes are rented — which keeps investors and landlords paying attention. Just outside town in East Buffalo Township, the picture shifts: about 83% of homes are owner-occupied, households average about two and a half people, and more than half of adults hold a bachelor’s degree. Beyond that, the surrounding Buffalo Valley is home to Amish and Mennonite farm families. Professionals, university-connected buyers, investors and Plain families looking for farms, shops and land all have reasons to bid on a Lewisburg property.
Why auction in Lewisburg
