About This Home
As of March 2025Welcome to 1401 College Ave. in Reading—a stunning stone corner lot rancher located within a neighborhood perfect for outdoor activities and with easy access to major roadways. There are countless upgrades for you to enjoy! Here’s what makes this home truly special: the owned solar panels on the southern and eastern exposures of the roof will reduce your electric bills and currently generate payments from the utility company. New windows, an on-demand gas hot water heater, a Weil McLain gas boiler for cozy baseboard heating, and a central air system ensure year-round comfort. Plus, a whole-house generator offers peace of mind. Walk-in to an open living room featuring luxury oak vinyl flooring and a gorgeous two-sided stone fireplace with a gas insert for convenience. The two-sided stone fireplace also opens to the den, adding warmth and character. The full attic, accessible from the living room, provides possibilities for future use. The living room and dining room have a modern, open flow, perfect for entertaining. The large, remodeled kitchen offers ample storage, newer appliances (including a warming drawer, smooth-top stove and hood), and a huge island that simplifies entertaining while still leaving room for a table. Indirect lighting adds a warm ambiance. The kitchen opens to a cozy 3-season porch with sliding doors, as well as a private, fenced-in backyard. The main floor includes a primary bedroom and full bathroom, and a second bedroom with an adjacent full bathroom that includes one of two laundry spaces in the home. The expansive basement includes a spacious rec room with a beautiful stone fireplace, perfect for gatherings. Additional features of the lower level include a second laundry room (with a stackable laundry unit), a full bath, ample flexible/guest space and a workshop. Easy access to the garage or kitchen thanks to two staircase entry points. Outside, the fenced backyard provides privacy and a peaceful space for relaxation or play. This well-maintained and upgraded home is a must-see. A 2-car garage has access to the backyard and lower level. Schedule your visit today and experience all it has to offer.
