About 111 S 5th Ave

Updated West Reading Townhouse Whether you’re looking for your new home or a great investment, don’t miss out on one of the best locations in West Reading! This brick townhome puts you right in the middle of everything, from the park system and hospital to all of the Penn Ave dining and shopping! Elevated off the street is the covered front porch, complemented by newer windows and capped soffits. Through the front door, you’re welcomed by a tile entryway that opens beautifully to the living room, featuring high-end laminate flooring, higher ceilings, large front window, built-in shelves, and crown molding. The same flooring flows seamlessly through to the bright dining room, where newer french doors that lead out to the back deck and a breakfast bar off the kitchen make it easy to entertain in any season. In the kitchen, you’re fully equipped for meal prep, thanks to gas cooking, stainless steel appliances including built-in range, dishwasher, refrigerator, and microwave, granite countertops, a pantry with pull out drawers, and lazy Susan, and 23 cabinets for ample storage, as well as another walk out to the back deck. Upstairs, all three bedrooms have ceiling fans and carpeting, while one enjoys a split AC unit. They all have easy access to the full bathroom with tile flooring, tile tub/shower, and new vanity. The partially finished basement has half bathroom toilet and a walkout stairs to back, while a large, Timbertech composite deck has a covered area off the kitchen and steps down to the fenced yard, setting the perfect stage for peaceful morning coffee and fun family cookouts.
