Amazing opportunity to own a solid single home and build some fast equity! This Reading home is unique in that is actually a split level. (most are capes in this area) The home does need a fair amount of work but will be totally worthwhile because the area and community are great. The living room is large and bright. This leads to the eat-in kitchen. The kitchen features a quality built Rich Maid custom kitchen. Tons of cabinets and unique features. The next floor up has the primary bedroom, 2nd bedroom and hall bath. There is hardwood under the bedrooms on the 2nd floor. (not the living room) There is a nice bedroom on the 3rd floor plus a really nice attic/storage room that would make a great office/nursery/walk in closet. The home has extensive storage in the eaves. Partial basement that has had basement waterproofing performed, plus there is an additional crawl space for a ton more storage. Don't forget the laundry chute! The yard is perfectly flat and perfect for fun or entertaining. There is a large covered patio and it includes a shed. There has been a good amount of updating done to some of the important items in the home so you will not have to worry about these items for years to come. Brand new 50 year roof, lots of new plumbing that includes new vent piping and drain piping, new plumbing and faucet at the kitchen sink and brand new smoke detectors and C/O detector. The home does feature central air and if you ever want to convert to gas there is already gas to the house! 200-amp electric service plus they are including the fridge, washer and dryer. This is a great opportunity!
