About This Home

As of June 2024

Seller is selling the property as is. Welcome to 524 Douglass St, semi-detached home in City of Reading Historic District. The house sits on a wide street with ample parking and limited traffic. Enter through the front door into a huge living room with beautiful hardwood floors. The living room opens up to a large dining room with brand new laminate floors. Step into a beautiful kitchen from the dining room and you will see brand new tiles, cabinets and stainless-steel refrigerator/ electric range.
Open the brand-new back door from the kitchen and you have a beautiful, covered deck overseeing the fenced in backyard. The steps in the living room will take you to 3 large private bedrooms and a full bathroom with all new laminate floors. Go further up the steps to the 3rd floor and you have 2 more large bedrooms.
The house also has a brand-new Gas furnace installed for efficient heating and brand-new water heater. Most of the windows are brand new as well. The basement is huge and has a laundry hook up eliminating the need to drive to a laundromat.
