About This Home

As of April 2024

GREAT INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY!!! Looking for a property with instant positive cash flow, you've found it. Check out this fully occupied mixed use building in the City of Reading. The first and second floor units are 2 bedroom while the third floor is a one bedroom unit. Two of three units are currently occupied by long term tenants. The third unit will likely soon have a returning previous long term tenant. Efficient gas heat throughout, newer replacement windows, all appliances in apartment included with sale. The kicker for this property is the lower level which currently hosts a luncheonette. The luncheonette will be closing with the sale of the property but, (business not for sale) the use for that space is only limited by the new owner's imagination (run your ideas by the City of Reading to see if they'll work out). Located directly across the street from the Northwest Middle School, the business potential for the lower level (side entrance on Front St) is high. Don't miss your opportunity to own this great property! Schedule your showing today.
