About This Home

As of March 2024

Welcome home. Cute and convenient townhome in Wyomissing schools. As you enter into the living room with a large window and neutral paint, you’ll see the vibrant dining area with ornate chair rail and vinyl plank floor that joins the large covered patio area complete with ceiling fans and a fenced yard. You will enjoy cooking in the beautifully appointed kitchen with stainless steel appliances, double sink, quartz countertops and soft close cabinets. The bedroom area upstairs features three bedrooms, one of which could be a nursery, office or walk in closet. The full bath has all the amenities with tile, linen closet and tub/shower. The focal point and differentiating factor in this home is the partially finished lower level. Gathering room for entertaining, play room or just gathering together is a plus and there is a half bath for convenience. Separate laundry room and work area with walk out access. Bring your ideas and belongings and make this your next home. One year AHS Home home shield warranty included by the seller.
