About This Home
As of January 2019If you are looking for a great investment, look no further. Opportunity Galore awaits the future owner of this super spacious, 4 BR/2 BA brick row home. It offers a master suite on the third floor and the other 3 bedrooms are situated on the second floor, along with the laundry room and second bath. This home is conveniently located on a quaint, tree lined street, close to major routes, public transportation, and walking distance to some of Reading's best restaurants, entertainment, shopping, offices, and businesses. Don't worry about parking, because on this street you can obtain a yearly parking permit for residents! This home is in need of some overdue TLC and the heater will need to be replaced, but it is not lacking character or charm. Beautiful woodwork and some original fixtures are still in place. The kitchen has been updated in recent years and it has a fenced in courtyard too! Being sold *AS IS*, but this property will be worth the effort!
