About This Home

As of June 2023

Welcome to 534 N Reading Avenue. This 2 bedroom 1.5 bath home exudes pride in ownership. The home holds many updates, but still preserves the charm and craftsmanship found in a home of its age. With original molding and hand carved railings, you are immediately in awe of the quality build of the home and the way it has stepped into modern comfort. The living area is dressed in rich hardwoods and bathed in natural light. This area is perfect for unwinding and entertaining as it flows with ease to the formal dining area and onto the spacious eat-in kitchen. Complete with ivory cabinetry that pairs to perfection with the tin tile backsplash and neutral tones throughout, there is ample counter and storage space in this heart of the home. The breakfast nook is a perfect space for starting your day and provides access to the backyard of the home. On the second level of the home you will find two spacious bedrooms as well as a full bath. The third floor of the home is currently used as a storage space, but the options are endless and the canvas is blank. Outdoors you will find a sprawling two tier deck that overlooks the fenced in yard, and a storage shed that is the perfect size for a man cave, a she-shed, or simply outdoor storage. The home also boasts ample off street parking. With ease of access to many major routes, local shops, restaurants, and more, 534 N Reading Avenue is your perfect next chapter of homeownership.
