Also, please review the Seller's Disclosure concerning the bathroom. Located in Northeast Reading this home has great features to offer whether you are looking for a family home or one to rent out and make a profit. The downstairs features a living room, dining room and a nice-size kitchen which all have new flooring and paint. The living room features a beautiful fireplace which has recently been equipped with new lighting. The dining room conveniently hosts a small half-bath so none of your guests have to leave the first floor. Don't miss out on this large kitchen space which also features a breakfast bar as well as new cabinets, countertops and appliances. Proceed to the second floor where you will find three nice-size private bedrooms and a full-bath. Additionally, you will be surprised by the extra space within the attic. Add heat to this room and make it your master bedroom or an additional family room/playroom to gather for those fun movie and game nights. The basement does need a few updates; however, the current owner did utilize part of this area for family gatherings and did have cable ran downstairs for entertainment purposes. Before you leave the home, be sure to check out the backyard which includes a newer privacy fence and generous space for BBQs and gatherings. When you aren’t using the backyard for activities, enjoy the luxury of your very own off-street parking. Please be advised this home is being sold AS-IS. While there is not a lot of work to be performed, the Seller is not willing to take on the minor work that the second floor and roof require, although it is minor. United Real Estate does not hold Earnest Deposits.
