About This Home

As of December 2016

NOTE: Property taxes have been reassessed. The new assessment for 2017 is $200,500. The new tax rate will be a total of $8,206 (County, Township, and School). The new tax rate will take effect for the county and township January 1, 2017, and the school tax will be for the 2017 / 2018 school year. 12 Buckingham Dr, Reading, PA 19605, located in Muhlenberg Township, Berks County Pennsylvania, sits on a one-acre lot located on a private cul-de-sac street. The home built-in 1990 includes architectural amenities such as a two story foyer, cathedral ceiling in the master bedroom and 5th bedroom. Flanking the foyer is a large living room on the left and a dining room on the right. Both of these rooms have Pergo floors while the living room features a granite surround fireplace. The foyer has marble flooring in a large chandelier. The kitchen has a breakfast nook with patio doors leading to a large two tiered deck. The kitchen also features tile counter tops and back splash, downdraft range, wall oven, built-in microwave, double bowl sink, built-in dishwasher and large pantry. The family room, located adjacent to the nook, has a full brick fireplace with oak mantel. Just past the kitchen you find a useful butler's pantry, mudroom, laundry area and full bath. The master bedroom, located on the second floor, has a built-in fireplace, dressing room, and full bath. There are four other bedrooms on the second floor including bedroom five which has a full bath, cathedral ceiling and skylights. It is like a second master bedroom suite. Fine handmade brick adorns the exterior of the home on all four sides. The brick, accented by a two-story oak doorway and stained glass window array, makes this colonial home warm and inviting. Other features include a large 3 car garage with openers, Andersen windows, oil hot water heat , central air conditioning , skylights , security system , water treatment system, radon remediation system and UV light . There are many other unique features about the home that can be better appreciated by previewing the great home photos. For an even greater perspective on the home, I suggest scheduling an appointment to preview it yourself.
