Property Description

An extremely rare opportunity to own a piece of Reading's history! This 1890 beautifully constructed mansion features the charm and craftsmanship from a bygone era. Incredible hand crafted architectural accents abound throughout the entire home. "Stunning" is the obvious word to describe the intricately crafted woodwork that his been carefully preserved these 135 years later. The massive landing leading to the 2nd floor is enveloped in natural light warmly spilling through the incredible array of stained glass windows. The front portion of the home is bookended by a circular facade on one side, and a hexagonal one on the other, offering a storybook feel and dramatic appeal from the curbside. The 2nd floor includes 4 very roomy bedrooms and a shared bath, as well as a convenient office overlooking the front yard. The 3rd floor adds an additional 4 bedrooms for those in the need. As if this all weren't enough, the lower level of the home has been finished off with a Living Room, Kitchen, 2 bedrooms and bath. A great opportunity to subsidize your investment with additional rental income, or space for that special family member or friend that you wish to have near by. An open house will be held on Tuesday from 5 to 7pm.
