About this home

Are you a big fan of today's fancy staging, professional photography, videos with soothing music and homes in move-in condition? If so, this ISN'T the house for you! A FANTASTIC location, combined with a SUPERB floor plan and a GREAT price all add up to be an OPPORTUNITY OF A LIFETIME! Here is your chance to make a special property into just what you want. Take down a few walls and create that open space you crave...put in the kitchen and baths of your dreams, make the two fireplaces and beautiful picture windows a focal point of your space, refinish the quality hardwood floors, and NEVER over price your neighborhood. Every house on the street has sold at, or is valued at a much higher price. With your improvements, you will build instant equity in a location that is known for "tons of kids," an easy walk to Joshua Eaton Elementary School, Washington Park, the commuter rail, and Reading's "hip" downtown. A moments drive puts you on Routes 128 and 93. It's where you want to be!
