About This Home

As of March 2025

Charming and Updated Home in Prime Location! Welcome to 3523 E Kent Rd, a beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home in the heart of Muhlenberg. This move-in-ready property features original hardwood floors throughout the main level, adding warmth and character. The fully finished basement (2023) boasts LVP flooring and a renovated fireplace, creating a cozy additional living space. The home is equipped with central HVAC, gas heating, and an EcoWater Systems water softener for ultimate comfort. The Martins water filtration system provides filtered water for both the fridge and kitchen sink cold water. Step outside to a fenced-in backyard (2018) with two sheds, hardscaping, and a screened-in porch (2023)—perfect for outdoor enjoyment. A new bathtub was installed in the main bathroom last year, and the new fridge (only six months old) and stove will remain with the home. Additional highlights include recessed lighting in the living room and basement, crown molding, spindle staircases, and fresh paint throughout. The home also offers an attached garage, inside access parking, and ample storage. Prime location: Directly in front of Muhlenberg High School with easy access to N 5th St, major highways, and routes to major cities. Don't miss out—schedule your showing today!
