About This Home

As of July 2020

Located in the highly desirable Birch Meadow neighborhood this beautiful single family home is situated in a very private setting. First time ever on the market, this property was once part of a large family estate dating back to the 1930's. The privacy of this property and it's setting is one of a kind in Reading.This is the only house on Linda Avenue- a private way. No GPS can find it! Subsequently, sub-divided to family in 1975 the property was deeded to the present owner and is packaged for sale with two attached lots which are the last remaining parcels of the estate-(Dunbar Rd.-not buildable and the other-Wales Ave.-accessible from Martin Rd is on a paper road.) Built by the owner/builder,12 Linda Ave has been meticulously maintained and cared for and includes many additions and improvements over the years. Be sure to view interactive floor plan and 3D video of property.
