About This Home
As of July 2020A single family home in West Reading is hard to come by, and you won't want to miss out on this one! Don't let the square footage fool you. This well-maintained home packs a lot of punch and feels much larger due to the great layout. It features a white kitchen with custom island, an updated tiled bath & beautiful hardwood floors. What's not to love? The two bedrooms are generously sized and both feature a full wall of closet space. The dining room could very easily be turned into a third bedroom *and the seller is willing to do that for you with an acceptable agreement of sale. * The laundry room is conveniently located off of the kitchen. And there's plenty of storage located in the floored attic, accessed by pull-down stairs. Enjoy a cup of coffee on the adorable front porch or have a cook out with friends on the back patio. This location is fantastic; a quick walk to Penn Avenue, the hospital & the Reading Public Museum. You'll want to run to see this one!
