Property description
Here’s your chance to own one of Reading’s most coveted homes! You’ll immediately fall in love with this charming craftsman bungalow the second you pull up to the impressive corner lot. Set on over a ½ acre, the private oversized fenced-in backyard provides hours of entertainment with in-ground pool, fire pit, baseball hoop & plenty of green space. The interior is equally impressive with tall ceilings, open concept, & period detail dating back over a century. First floor laundry room with full bath & bonus bedroom which can also be used as a home office to accommodate today’s lifestyle. Kitchen is nicely appointed with ample cabinets and counter space. Head upstairs to find additional bath with large master & 2 more bedrooms with hardwood throughout. Built-ins galore, striking wood fireplace, sun porch, 200 amp, newer gas furnace, with loads of storage in basement make this home a winner. Steps to Birch Meadow school complex and minutes to commuter rail. Truly a must see!
