About This Home
As of August 2015Everyone says it..."One of the best neighborhoods in town!" Providing a moments walk to Joshua Eaton, the park, Reading's "hip" downtown, & the commuter rail, it's where YOU want to be! Sitting pretty on a corner lot, this stately, over-sized hip-roof, brick front split entry has the space you crave, including a warm and inviting 1st fl family room addition...right off the kitchen. While there is wall paper-a-plenty, & dated baths, the finished product once you add some updates will be incredible! A few similar homes on the block w/ some updates have sold recently toward 800k! Beautiful HW floors, 2 FP's, lovely picture & bow windows, & a spacious 2 car gar are just a few of the perks here! The yard is ideal for kids, & entertaining. The LL provides the perfect opportunity for an "in-law suite" w/ a separate entrance, full bath, & efficient kitchen. The gas furnace is newer, the electrical is updated, & the roof is young. Adored for 48 years, it's time for you to make YOUR memories!
