Welcome to one of the cleanest, most well-maintained brick ranchers you’ll ever step foot in. From the moment you arrive, you’ll notice the charm of the beautiful covered front porch—perfect for relaxing with a morning coffee—as well as a convenient covered side entrance for everyday use. Awnings above the left-side windows add a touch of character and provide additional shade, enhancing the home's curb appeal and comfort. This beautifully kept home offers easy one-floor living with three spacious bedrooms, a tiled full bathroom with an updated tub and shower, and hardwood floors beneath the carpet in the living room, hallway, and bedrooms. The nicely sized kitchen comes fully equipped with all the amenities—gas stove, dishwasher, side-by-side refrigerator, deep double sink, garbage disposal, and more. An island bump-out wraps around to create a cozy seating area for two with two stools included, perfect for casual meals when you're not sitting at the kitchen table. A spiral staircase leads to a finished walk-out basement that’s perfect for entertaining—featuring a real stone fireplace with a Harmon wood burning insert with blowers, a mirrored accent wall, a separate bonus room with cabinets, counter space, and a mini-fridge, and a large laundry area complete with wash basin, utility access, and floor drain. Off the basement, you'll find a bright sunroom with skylights overlooking the backyard—an ideal space to relax and unwind in any season. The sunroom has many working windows for that perfect breeze! The basement also includes a powder room and interior access to an extended one-car garage. Outside, you’ll find a huge driveway, a detached two-car carport, a motorized awning over the garage door area, and a shed tucked neatly in the corner of a meticulously landscaped corner lot. Mechanical highlights include a two-zone natural gas furnace, a 5-year-old central air system located in the attic, a 2018 water heater, and a water softener. The carpets have been professionally cleaned, the insulation in the attic is excellent, and every inch of this home shows pride of ownership. Conveniently located just minutes from shopping, the Reading Phillies stadium, the Schuylkill River, and the regional airport, with easy access to Routes 222, 422, 61, and 12—this move-in ready gem has everything you’ve been waiting for.

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.
