Single-floor living in sought-after Kenhorst Boro, GovernorMifflin SD, located just a few blocks from Alvernia University. Showcased on a level double-sized fenced lot (almost ¼ acre) backing to the Kenhorst Park with everything for your enjoyment. So much for so little, why rent when you can own for less per month. Very affordable - no HOA fees or rules, low total annual taxes $ 2,392 ($199.33 per month), low-cost natural gas heating ($86.00 per month, based on current budget plan), and low electric costs ($96.00 per month, including Central Air Conditioning, based on current budget plan). Updated with $20,985 Anderson windows, professionally installed by Anderson Renewal on three sides with a striking modern black finish (installed 12/21), invoice attached. All other windows were replaced previously, except one window in the main level laundry room – the laundry is conveniently located on the same level as the bedrooms, not located in the basement. The handy laundry/mud room has outdoor access for an outdoor clothesline if desired. The home has been lavished with Central A/C for summertime comfort and affordable public gas for efficient heating. You’ll love the open floor plan with a sizable great room offering versatility; you can have a huge dining table, or massive living room furniture, or a nice balance, depending on your needs and lifestyle. The space is updated yet retains the charming tall baseboard and millwork details that make it feel like home. The kitchen is graced with newer cabinets on 3 walls, including a large pantry cabinet next to the included newer refrigerator. The kitchen opens to the great room and has easy access to the back porch, perfect for outdoor grilling & meals. The back porch overlooks the fenced backyard with no houses behind, perfect for furbabies and children. A hallway from the great room nicely separates the bedrooms and bathroom from the main living area; originally, the hallway had a door (removed for limited mobility access),and a door can be reinstalled if additional separation is desired. The bathroom is upgraded with an oversized shower. The basement has a newer concrete floor and both inside and outside access, making it ideal for finishing if more living space is desired. The electrical is upgraded with 100-AMP circuit breakers & modern wiring. Worry-free with a newer $ 2,050.00 professionally installed water heater (10/2023), invoice attached. The age ofthe roof & siding is unknown, but, the current owner purchased the home in 2020, and based on the photo in the 2005 listing, the roof, siding, and windows were replaced between 2005 and 2020, and the concrete basement floor and front porch floor look newer (The 2020 listing did not have a SPD). Lots of room for additional space if needed in the future, some neighboring homes added dormers upstairs to create daylight living space in the upper level, some enclosed the delightful front porch, while others have added a luxurious owner suite on the back as time and interest rates permit, the oversized lot offers plenty of options. There is even room for a future oversized garage if desired. Lots of off-street parking with a long concrete driveway leading to a 1-car detached garage with concrete floor and enduring masonry construction, plus the remnants of an additional crushed stone parking area to the side of the driveway if more off-street parking is desired. This home may have a Reading zip code, but with the large lot and small town feel of Kenhorst Boro, it feels like a million miles away from downtown Reading, but is just a hop and skip away, plus quick access to Shillington and major routes including Rt.222, Rt.422, Rt.176, Rt.724, Rt.10, and PATP

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
