About this home
Welcome to this incredible property offering the ultimate "two-for-one" value! Perfectly designed to function like a two-unit property, this home is an absolute dream for multigenerational families, those looking for independent living spaces for adult children, or anyone seeking a space for border income. Best of all, privacy is built right in with separate electric meters for each living area.
Please note: The City of Reading legalizes zoning based on specific criteria, and due to the lack of off-street parking, the city does not officially recognize this as a legal two-unit dwelling. However, if you are looking for a single-family home with entirely separate, self-contained quarters, this layout is unmatched.
The Upper Level: Chic Loft Experience
Step into a stylish retreat featuring two bedrooms and one full bathroom. This unit radiates character with stunning exposed brick, multiple ceiling fans, and old-school real wood floors. It offers a trendy loft vibe and includes its own dedicated washer and dryer hookups for maximum convenience.
The Lower Level: Large Efficiency Suite
The downstairs area is a sprawling, fully self-contained efficiency. It features its own private bathroom, a complete kitchen, a spacious living area, and a dedicated sleeping area. It provides total independence and privacy, making it perfect for extended family or generating extra border income.
Unbeatable Location
Positioned right in the heart of everything, you are just minutes away from downtown Reading, the Reading Area Community College, and Reading Hospital. Best of all, public transportation is right at your front door, making commuting an absolute breeze. If you drive, this home is highway adjacent for commuting ease.
Don't miss out on this unique property that gives you twice the living versatility in one fantastic location!...
