About This Home

As of October 2021

Welcome to 518 Elsie St, located a half block off Museum Rd and walking distance to the Wyomissing Park with miles of walking trails. This home has been in the same family for over 50 years, has been well cared for and is looking new buyers to give it a cosmetic update. Hardwood floors under the carpet are waiting to be exposed. The living and dining rooms are large and offer an abundance of windows for natural light. The kitchen has plenty of cabinets, Corian counter tops and new stainless steel range and range hood. There is an enclosed porch/sunroom off the kitchen with a half bath. Upstairs are 3 private bedrooms, one with the hardwood floors already exposed and one with balcony access. The walk up attic offers plenty of storage space. The basement is dry and partially finished with paneled walls. The washer and dryer remain with the property. The back yard is fenced and the one car garage rounds out this property.
