About this home

Often admired two-family home on an amazing elevated lot. This is a perfect opportunity for a multi-generational family, investment property or simply used as an expansive single family. This stately home has been meticulously maintained with many updates. Close to Readings vibrant downtown, Commuter Rail and Reading's award winning library. Convenient to the Birch Meadow complex where you will find the Birch Meadow Elementary School, Coolidge Middle School, Reading Memorial High School and the Burbank YMCA. The expansive yard offers lots of opportunity for outdoor enjoyment with a separate fenced-in dog area and a newly paved driveway. Both units have been Certified Deleaded (see attached). Each unit has separately metered gas and electric. Truly a great and solid home offering flexible living options.
