About This Home
As of February 2025Do not wait to see this unique Reading property complete with a two car garage.

Many of the original features remain on display including the hardwood floors, stained glass transomes and panes, original hardwood moldings and trim, the decorative marble fireplace and mantle, the housekeepers stairwell off the kitchen, and more. In addition, the workman's shower room is just off the kitchen and can be used during the spring, summer, and fall months of the year.
