Unlike large apartment complexes or generic rental management companies, Collegeville Living works exclusively with Lehigh students.

The best off-campus houses near Lehigh lease early — most serious groups secure their house in the fall semester for the following academic year. If you are planning for Fall 2027 or Fall 2028, the time to start is now. Text 484-206-5522 to find out what is available.

Where Our Properties Are

All of our Lehigh off-campus houses are on Carlton Ave, Montclair Ave, Thomas St, Vine St, or Selfridge St — all within the South Bethlehem blocks immediately surrounding campus. Text 484-206-5522 for exact walking directions to any specific property.

How Our Leases Work

Every CollegevilleLiving property is leased as a whole house to one group — not room-by-room, and not to individual tenants who don't know each other. You and your roommates sign a single lease together and take the entire house, which means you choose who you live with and avoid the random-roommate-matching that comes with most apartment complexes near Lehigh.

Rent is quoted as a monthly total for the house, split evenly across the group (the per-person figure shown on each listing is that total divided by bedroom count). Utilities are typically split directly among the roommates in the house rather than bundled into rent — text 484-206-5522 for the exact utility and parking setup at a specific property before you tour, since it can vary house to house.

Lease Length & Term

Leases run on the academic year, matching when Lehigh students actually need housing — not a generic 12-month apartment-complex term.

Deposit

A security deposit is required at signing. Exact amount depends on the property — text us and we'll confirm for the house you're considering.

Who You Deal With

CollegevilleLiving is privately owned and managed. You work directly with us, not a call center or a property management company with rotating staff.

How to Apply

Text 484-206-5522 with your group size and target move-in year. We'll confirm availability, set up a tour, and walk you through the lease.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you lease by the room or the whole house?

The whole house, to one group. You and your roommates sign a single lease together, which means you pick who you live with — there's no random roommate matching like you'd get with an apartment complex.

What's included in the rent? Are utilities and parking separate?

The listed rent is the monthly cost of the house. Utilities are typically split directly among the roommates rather than bundled into rent. Parking availability varies by property. Text 484-206-5522 and we'll confirm the exact utility and parking setup for any specific house before you tour.

How far is it to walk to campus?

Our properties are on Carlton Ave, Montclair Ave, Thomas St, Vine St, and Selfridge St in South Bethlehem — all within easy walking distance of Lehigh's main academic buildings. Exact walk time varies by street; text us for specifics on a property you're considering.

What's the deposit and lease length?

Leases run on the academic year. A security deposit is required at signing; the exact amount depends on the property. Text 484-206-5522 for the specifics on a house you're interested in.

When should we start looking?

Early. The best houses near Lehigh lease in the fall semester for the following academic year — groups who wait until spring typically find far fewer options available.

How do we schedule a tour or apply?

Text 484-206-5522 with your group size and the academic year you're targeting. We'll confirm what's available, set up a tour, and walk you through the lease.
