Welcome to this charming Dutch Colonial Revival, ideally situated in a tranquil neighborhood setting. From the moment you step through the front door, you'll feel the warmth and care that have gone into making this home such a welcoming place. Gleaming refinished hardwood floors, fresh interior paint, a recently painted exterior, newer windows, abundant natural light, and thoughtful updates create an inviting atmosphere. The fireplaced living room is a lovely gathering space for relaxed evenings and entertainment, while the adjoining sun-filled sitting room or office offers a versatile space for working from home, reading, or enjoying a quiet moment. The bright dining room flows into the kitchen and to one of the home's special features-a fabulous screened-in porch and adjoining wood deck, complete with built-in benches overlooking a picturesque backyard. It's the kind of space where you can savor morning coffee or host a gathering with friends on a spring, summer, or fall evening. A convenient half bath completes the first floor. Upstairs, three inviting bedrooms feature hardwood floors and good closet space, along with a beautifully updated and contemporary bath with a glass step-in shower. A walk-up attic, accessed from one of the bedrooms, provides additional storage space. The bright, newly finished lower level expands the home's living space and includes a laundry area and an above-grade side-entry door that floods the space with natural light. The backyard shed provides additional storage. The location is hard to beat! This home is perfectly positioned just moments from Memorial Park, with pickleball, tennis, playgrounds, ice skating, concerts, and seasonal events. And you're just minutes from downtown Reading, the Reading Depot Commuter Rail, and major routes - offering the best of both worlds - a neighborhood setting with convenient access to Boston and everything Reading has to offer. A warm and inviting home in a wonderful location - ready for its next chapter!
