Property description

Nestled on a picturesque, tree-lined street just outside Reading's vibrant town center and located in the coveted Birch Meadow area, this charming Dutch Colonial offers the perfect blend of classic character and modern flexibility. With a traditional layout and beautiful hardwood floors throughout, this freshly painted home features a welcoming first floor complete with a mudroom, sunlit living room, formal dining room, kitchen with new quartz counters, and a versatile space for a home office or den. Upstairs, you'll find 3 bedrooms and full bath. The walkout lower level is a huge bonus, boasting an abundance of natural light, a living room, kitchenette, additional bedroom, & full bath—ideal for in-laws, an au pair suite, or a permitted ADU. Outside, the fenced backyard is a private oasis, featuring a gunite in-ground pool and garden area. All this just minutes to shopping, the commuter rail, and restaurants.
