About this home

This recently updated condo is a commuter's delight! It's a 2 minute walk to the commuter rail and a 5 minute walk to Reading's Downtown restaurants and shops. This unit offers a unique outdoor garden space and you can walk right into the unit from the parking lot, through that private garden space. This condo offers a large bedroom, new carpet, new glass-top electric range and a new dishwasher. Other updates include: freshly painted throughout, renovated bath and kitchen. The in-ground pool is a short walk from this unit and so is the laundry room. Only thing left to do is bring your belongings and enjoy! Offers will be reviewed on Tuesday Oct. 21 at 12noon.
