Saint Mary's Homes for Sale

St. Mary’s may be a small neighborhood near downtown Reading, but its community represents the city’s multicultural makeup. According to Marjorie DeJesus, a seasoned Reading-area Realtor with Coldwell Banker Realty, St. Mary’s is “close to where a lot of the Latino communities come together. The Hispanic Center is just a couple minutes away, and there’s a large Ecuadorian and Dominican community down here.” Surrounded by Latin American markets, restaurants and community spaces, St. Mary’s is one of many places where the community is connected by a shared culture. St. Mary’s housing is made up of historic row houses; most homes were built in the early 1900s and have less than 1300 square feet. However, listings usually have four to five bedrooms and multiple levels. Prices range from $46,000 to $85,000 for models with less square footage that may need to be remodeled, while newly renovated listings can go for between $130,000 and $180,000. The homes generally have short, concrete stoops that lead directly onto the city’s wide sidewalks. On-street parking is the norm, but some homes do have detached garages that can generally fit one or two cars. Students can attend 16th and Haak
