Discover a rare opportunity to own two versatile properties on a single parcel in vibrant West Reading downtown. The 1,400 sq ft end-of-row townhome (with additional space on 3rd floor) sits proudly on a spacious double lot, offering tons of natural light, room to grow and countless possibilities to make it your own. This charming townhome was previously used as a long-term rental, occupied by a single tenant for the duration of ownership. While it was last rented well below market value at $1,100 per month, it now awaits a new owner to update and reimagine the space to its full potential. Step out back and you’ll find a hidden gem — a finished warehouse space that has housed a beloved local bakery for nearly 30 years. Whether you dream of continuing its legacy as a bakery or catering kitchen, or you envision a creative workshop or personal studio, this flexible space invites you to bring your vision to life. Please note: Approval will be required for any new residential units or any commercial uses beyond a bakery or catering operation, as permitted by the borough. Please contact the local municipality with any questions. The marketing of this listing offers the “possibility” of multiple units or additional commercial uses but would require approvals from the local municipality. With its generous lot, unique rear space, and prime walkable location close to West Reading’s shops, restaurants, and community attractions, this property offers a rare chance to create something truly special. Don’t miss out on this one-of-a-kind “blank canvas” — schedule your private showing soon and imagine the possibilities!

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
